Nope, no where in the Bible does it say that the Bible is the only authority. As a matter of fact it says that not everything Jesus did is recorded in the Bible. It also says that we should hold fast to sacred tradition, and that Christ left a Church with divine authority to govern in His name.
God bless,

I do believe that the Scripture is the only source of doctrine and should be studied as God's Word. That's what it says of itself in both the Old and the New Testament.
Ignoring or rejecting the Bible's teachings leaves us with a pile of human opinions. And you know bad that is most of the time.

The Bible is the final authority in all things pertaining to faith and doctrine. This was taught by the prophets of the Old Testament (Isa.8:20), revealed in the Psalms (Psalm 119: all) and by the disciples of the New Testament (Acts 17:11). I guess I am demonstrating "Sola Scripture" in answering your question, but the Word of God IS, WAS and ALWAYS WILL BE. Isa 55:11
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
119:21 Thou hast rebuked the proud that are cursed, which do err from thy commandments.
There will always be those who OBEY the commandments/ (119:9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word.)
and Believe God's Word (1Th 2:13 For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.)
and those who don't (Lu 8:12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.) (Joh 5:38 And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.)

Your question requires some more clarification - Without that, an attempt to answer it may fruitless!
