The Bible cannot be understood and interpreted without the guidance and direction of the Roman Catholic Church. This arrogance of this church has a tradition. Independent study of the Bible could not only lead to the recognition of the mendacity of this church, but also to the recognition of the earthly adversary of Jesus Christ.e cannot be understood without the church of Rome

An inscrutable work?
The Bible is too complicated, too extensive, too mysterious and mystical to be able to understand it. This particularly applies to the last book of the Bible, the Revelation of John on Patmos. Competent and, above all, authorized people are absolutely needed to interpret the Bible. Such claims are part of the standard repertoire of the Roman Catholic Church. It claims to be the only institution on earth capable of correctly interpreting the Bible.
The Church of Rome claims to be the successor to Peter. Jesus appointed Peter the first pope, founded the Catholic Church and also established the “holy sacraments”. An apostolic succession, the “mystical body of Jesus,” is the tenor. Accordingly, this church also claims that, in addition to its infallibility, it is also the only authority that can correctly understand the statements of the Bible.
Cajetan – Luther’s opponent

Cardinal Thomas Cajetan (1469-1534) refreshed this presumption on the occasion of Martin Luther’s protest movement, which had just begun. It was he who summoned the “rebellious” Luther to Augsburg in 1518 in order to force him to retract his theses. Augsburg was also the cardinal’s current residence. He lived “in all modesty” in the city palace, the property of Jacob Fugger.
The Fugger family was the banking family par excellence at that time. One hand washes the other. Pope Leo X financed the ambitious construction of St. Peter’s Basilica with a loan from the Fugger family. The repayment was to be made primarily through the extensive sale of indulgence letters. For this purpose, the “chief salesman” John Tetzel traveled through the country and, based on his zealous activities, triggered the reaction from Martin Luther in Saxony that led to the Reformation movement.
It was Cardinal Cajetan who developed the lucrative doctrine of indulgences for the Pope. Another focus of the cleric was the interpretation of the Bible. Given the Reformation that was already underway, Cajetan concentrated on “understanding” the Holy Scriptures from 1524 until the end of his life. Luther had already translated the Bible into German and thus made the Word of God available to the common people in an understandable native language. A huge thorn in Rome’s side.
Church is necessary for understanding the Bible
For Cajetan, the Bible, which was now freely available, was an opportunity to reaffirm the church’s self-ascribed monopoly position.
“No one should presume to read or interpret the Bible without the guidance of the Church. For Scripture, wrested from the authority of the Church, becomes a weapon of heresy and division.”
But that was of no use because the truth could no longer be hidden. The teachings of the Roman Church have little in common with the written Word of God. The term “Catholic” as “universal” is therefore not to be understood as the “universal mother organization of all churches”, but rather as the “universal adoption of all pagan religions in circulation”.
The Bible says the opposite

This incomparable arrogance of the Roman Catholic Church is actually refuted by the Bible itself. During his conversation with His disciples on the Mount of Olives, Jesus Christ himself calls on people to read and understand the book of Daniel, Matthew 24:15:
“When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)“
Even in the most “incomprehensible of all books”, Revelation, Jesus Christ calls on you to read this book and take it to heart, Revelation 1:3:
“Blessed is the one who reads the words of prophecy, and those who hear them and keep what is written in them! For the time is at hand.“
The church of Rome justifies its pride by falsely claiming that Peter was the rock. The Greek clearly says “petros” and that doesn’t mean rock, but simply stone. For the word rock you find the word “petra” in Greek, and that is Jesus Christ himself.
Bible contains type of papacy
In addition to Jezebel being packaged as Christianity as a type of unspeakable paganism, there is definitely a hint with the fence post that points directly to the papacy. It was John who was dealing with the type of papacy.

A kind of prototype of the Roman church. At this point one can certainly claim that the Church of Rome appears indirectly in the Bible, although not in the role of Peter, but elsewhere. 3 John 9-10:
“I wrote unto the church: but Diotrephes, who loveth to have the preeminence among them, receiveth us not. Wherefore, if I come, I will remember his deeds which he doeth, prating against us with malicious words: and not content therewith, neither doth he himself receive the brethren, and forbiddeth them that would, and casteth them out of the church.“
John’s third letter was addressed to a believer whose congregation was already experiencing apostasy trends. People emerged who wanted to act as leaders and one of them was Diotrephes. The one who played the wrong game, introduced his own rules, acted high-handed, made arbitrary decisions and did not attach great importance to the written word. Just like the papacy (Info).
Everyone read the Bible themselves, guided by the Holy Spirit. This leads to truth and understanding.
All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
