The ordinary magisterium is part of the teaching authority of the Church and has interpreted Scripture in countless encyclicals, letters, exhortations, catechisms and documents of Ecumenical Councils. These are all part of the official teaching of the Church and are binding, in a greater or lesser degree, on all Catholics. They are considered to be authoritative and reliable.
The Church saves infallible pronouncements for those times when an explicit definition of a doctrine of the Faith needs to be expressed.

Just bits and pieces.. that no one can really tie together ...maybe that is the point ... after all catholics do not really need the bible right ?:)
