You wouldn’t have the word of God without the Church to tell you it. Who is going to interpret? You get what you have today Millions of Protestants with whatever beliefs you can make up leading to a complete destruction of the faith.

Of course, the book of Pope Pius XII was written in 1950 and is not in my Bible.
In contrast, Yeshua/Jesus said the complete opposite-
Matthew 15:9
But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
The Roman Catholic Church teaches tradition is more important than the Word of God, and also claims they alone can properly interpret the Word of God.

In fact, I wouldn't have the Word of God without the Reformers translating the Bible into English. The Inquisitors did their best to stop that.
And luckily English hasn’t changed in 400 years so I’m sure no meaning is lost.
