Sola Scriptura and Sole Fide are both contrary to scripture.

How so? Please show your work.

Yup, and *Because I said so*, doesn’t count.

Sola Scriptura is simple never stated in the scripture. But if it were true, the scripture would have to contain that important teaching that lead to the horror of so-called Reformation. Besides, if you see the "bind and loose" passages in Matthew 16 and 18, it is clear that the scripture teaches the opposite: that the Church is the sole and sufficient rule of faith, that decides on the authority of Christ in Heaven.

Sola Fide is again, never quite stated in the scripture, and instead the opposite is taught in James 2:24.

To save you (and me) time: The scripture contains many statements that praise both the faith and the scripture. That the Holy Scripture is of extreme importance for faith formation is Catholic teaching. That faith is the greatest gift of God we may receive on our journey to salvation is also Catohlic teaching. Finally, note I say Sola Fide is an error. Sola Gratia -- don't confuse the two -- is Catholic teaching.
