Your anti-Catholic accusations are false. Why don't you learn what Catholic doctrine is, rather than attacking a strawman? Catholic doctrine is not that the Gospel is not the Word of God. Catholic doctrine is that heterodox sects were not authorized to interpret the Gospel by Christ, but the Lord gave only the Keys of Heaven to St. Peter, the first Pope, and authorized the Church, i.e. the Bishops together with the Church, to interpret it.

Here is Dei Verbum, from Vatican Council II. The very meaning of that is, the Word of God. "10. Sacred tradition and Sacred Scripture form one sacred deposit of the word of God, committed to the Church. Holding fast to this deposit the entire holy people united with their shepherds remain always steadfast in the teaching of the Apostles, in the common life, in the breaking of the bread and in prayers (see Acts 2, 42, Greek text), so that holding to, practicing and professing the heritage of the faith, it becomes on the part of the bishops and faithful a single common effort.

But the task of authentically interpreting the word of God, whether written or handed on, (8) has been entrusted exclusively to the living teaching office of the Church, (9) whose authority is exercised in the name of Jesus Christ. This teaching office is not above the word of God, but serves it, teaching only what has been handed on, listening to it devoutly, guarding it scrupulously and explaining it faithfully in accord with a divine commission and with the help of the Holy Spirit, it draws from this one deposit of faith everything which it presents for belief as divinely revealed." https://www.vatican.va/archive/hist_councils/ii_vatican_council/documents/vat-ii_const_19651118_dei-verbum_en.html
    
The real test comes now if they will proclaim the Gospel of salvation with this verse, or attack me personally, or revert to comparing Roman Catholicism with Protestantism.
