Where is the Mass in the Bible?
Catholics approach the Word of God (that includes the Bible) in a manner fundamentally different than Protestants. We approach the Word of God in the manner which Scripture recommends.
We learn the Word of God from our teachers (Heb 13:7).
Hebrews 13:7 Remember them which have the rule over you, who have spoken unto you the word of God: whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.
We learn the Word of God in Sacred Tradition and in the Sacred Writings (2Thess 2:15).
2 Thessalonians 2:15 Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.
When we do focus upon the Scriptures, we don’t neglect the spiritual meaning of the Word (2 Cor 3:6).
2 Corinthians 3:6 Who also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter, but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
And most importantly, as Catholics, we understand that we are fallible. We also believe that God has established an infallible Teacher of His Wisdom (Eph 3:10).
Ephesians 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
Therefore, we don’t go around re-interpreting what the Church has already explained. Since it is the Church which is called the Pillar and Foundation of the Truth (1 Tim 3:15),
1 Timothy 3:15 But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.
When it comes to Scripture, we believe the Church.
Protestants, on the other hand, do not know what to expect when they open the Bible. They seem to discover something new everytime they open the Bible. That’s why they come up with so many innovations. That’s why they come up with so many errors.
