Here’s the thing. Christ left a Church not a book and put his Apostles in charge of spreading his Word. Only later did the Church compile an official Bible from various writings. So when you ask what about all of these things that aren’t in the Bible imagine the early Christians before the Bible? Were they not real Christians?
The amazing thing about the Catholic Church is it’s still here even with all of our truly awful leaders. It still officially teaches the truth even with all of its sinful clergy.

If you think that’s bad one of Jesus’ hand picked Apostles ratted him out for silver and the first Pope denied he knew Jesus three times.
The first Pope or the first pebble?
Jesus is the rock and the chief cornerstone. Peter is a pebble if you go back to the original Hebrew.
