Again we see the inconsistency of Catholic teaching and thought in that the very Scripture Catholics deny as authoritative is being used in an authoritative way to give their church its authority.

On the contrary, the scripture you 'worship' supports the existence of the Catholic Church before it was written and compiled into the New Testament.

"Let us note that the very tradition, teaching, and faith of the Catholic Church from the beginning, which the Lord gave, was preached by the Apostles, and was preserved by the Fathers.  On this was the Church founded; and if anyone departs from this, he neither is nor any longer ought to be called a Christian." 
St. Athanasius ("Four Letters to Serapion of Thmuisc," c. 360 A.D.

>> “St. Athanasius (”Four Letters to Serapion of Thmuisc,” c. 360 A.D.” <<

.
The time that the anti-scriptural Roman catholic church was founded on persecution of the real followers of The Way.

There was a real church for almost 300 years before the fiction called the Roman catholic church was created.

The two are opposites.
