The Three Pillars of Catholicism (304)

The three pillars of Catholicism (also called “The Three Legs”) are Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium. All three are equally revered by Catholics, and given equal authority, so if something cannot be proven by “Sacred Scripture,” but is part of “Sacred Tradition” and approved by “the Magisterium,” it is established as official dogma. Is there relevance to this point of view, or can it result in a departure from “the faith which was once delivered to the saints” (Jude 1:3)?
