Why does the Catholic Church develop so many rules that aren't based on the Bible?

Nearly every rule of the Catholic Church has its basis in Biblical teachings - both from the Old and the New Testaments. You might give a specific example and we will try to explain how it is Biblical. Some rulings may be based on traditions which Saint Paul holds are as important as scripture.Roman Catholic AnswerIt is important to keep in mind that Our Blessed Lord established the Church, He did NOT write the Bible. The Bible was written by, formed by, defined by, and perserved by the Catholic Church. Without the Catholic Church there simply would be no New Testament. Every writer of every book of the New Testament (including the God, who is the primary author of Scripture) was a member of the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church, in other words wrote the Bible in the first century after Our Blessed Lord's death. She did not establish which books were to be included and which excluded until the fourth century, and she has perserved the Bible inerrantly since then. The question then should be, are there any rules in the Bible that are not in the Church, and the obvious answer is No, they have one and the same source - God. Futher, the Catholic Church does not develop rules, she follows the rules that God has revealed to Her as needed for salvation, the first one, of which, is to believe in Our Blessed Lord, and to follow His Church, which is His Mystical Body and the way He has established to lead all people to heaven.
