There is no given authority to teach in Scripture.

There is a gift of teaching that is given to some by the Holy Spirit which makes them exceptional teachers, but nowhere does God restrict teaching to a special class of people or a certain group of people.

Um, no.  2 Peter 1:20, which states that “no prophecy of scripture is made by private interpretation.”

Sure it does...it gives sole authority to the Catholic church.
