Catholics do indeed believe the bible is the inspired Word of God, but not the final authority. We look upon the bible as the book of the Church, not as the Church being the Church of the bible. Catholics also regognize teachings of the apostles not always spelled out in scripture.
| Paul warned of this...
2Ti 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires,
2Ti 4:4 and will turn away their ears from the truth and will turn aside to myths.
...and the Catholic denomination was the first great apostasy.
