IMHO ~ It is not the Vatican.
Well, if you are referring to the Apostles, then I can agree with this. However, don't forget that they took everything to the scriptures in prayer. And they didn't do it in a biased manner. 2Tim. 3:16-17
Also remember the example of the Bereans, who were taught by the apostles, but yet were commended because they didn't just take their word for it; they took their teachings to the scriptures to see if those things that they were saying were so.
"Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true." Acts 17:11
This tells us:
1. All teachings about God must be examined in the light of the Holy Scriptures
2. The scriptures can be understood
