God inspired and carried forth the Bible. It IS the authority and it tells us to be a part of a church body with specific requirements for leadership.
God IS the authority. He COMMANDS us to be a part of a structured church. You are ignoring that which means you are rejecting God's authority. You are the fraud.
You just showed that you are completely ignorant about textual transmission. Things like the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls put those arguments to rest long ago. You apparently have no faith is the creator of the universe to carry along His Word as He promised in His Word. That's not the God of scripture.
You are just making an excuse as to why you disagree with the Bible in order to justify your unbiblical position.
Think on that.
You clearly need a better understanding of textual transmission.

You are making a straw man to attack instead of addressing what my standard is.... God's Inerrant Word.
"the behavior displayed by the leaders of the institutions which claim authority from that book."
This has NOTHING to do with institutions. Any behavior that goes against scripture is definitionally un-Christian. That's a category error.
" I believe this both because of the inconsistencies between ancient writings and the modern bible"
Be specific.
