All Catholics use the Catechism of the Catholic Church ( was written for the purpose of summarizing the essential and basic teachings of the Roman Catholic Church.) They do claim their doctrines have sound Biblical support but that is not true since many of their doctrines are foreign to The Bible like Mary worship, prayers for the dead, the doctrineof Purgatory, worship of relics and images, the doctrine of the infallibility of the Roman Catholic Church, prayer beads (the Rosary), doctrine of the seven sacraments.
The Catholic Church officially states that Church tradition is equal in authority to the Bible (I want to say not "equal" but "above" since they plainly ignore Scripture and change that which does not suit them hence they even changed God's Law). According to Jesus, Scripture is the line for measuring everything else. He judged religious traditions by comparing them to Scripture. When religious traditions contradicted Scripture, he condemned them. This shows very clearly that nothing is equal in authority to Scripture. The Bible stands alone as the standard by which all other things are to be judged.
