Then I guess Jesus was of the devil when He quoted SCRIPTURE at the devil in His temptation in the wilderness.

Jesus didn’t appeal to tradition or the authority of any governing religious body. He went right to SCRIPTURE and used that and that alone.

He did’t argue or debate with the enemy or try to reason with him. He was just quoting SCRIPTURE.

Looks like Protestants are keeping pretty good company with Jesus in relying on the word and its power.

Do Catholics believe quoting scripture is a form of “Catholic Bashing?”

Protestants walked away from Christ long ago. It's only through their baptism that they are members of the Body of Christ. Their walk with the Lord is in spite of themselves. Quite the precarious position to be in. This is what happens when protestants reject the fullness of Christian truth.
