Therein lies your problem. You ignore sacred tradition: John 21: 25 “And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which if they were written one by one, I suppose that not even the world itself would contain the books written.”

Even before the Bible was offered as the written word of God, there was a tradition of devotion and intercession through Mary.

That verse in no way says what was presented written was incomplete. Actually a difficulty for your argument as the same John said:

John 20:

30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: 31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

So the apostle John tells us not only to focus on what was written and ignore what was not written but he told us that what was written was everything we needed to know to attain salvation...

I think we'll stick with the apostle John on that one...

This guy is clearly teaching another gospel that Paul warned us about...A false gospel...Steelfish, the apostles warned us about you guys...
