"The Bible alone" is not the basis of Faith.
Jesus is His Life never mentioned about a Bible. He never commanded us to believe in a book. we cannot see He ordered apostles to write a Book. During the time if the apostles there was no bible at all. Jesus founded, not a book as the basis of faith, but the Church as the "pillar and foundation of the truth" (2 Tim 3:15). And He promise not that book, but He Himself will be with His church till the end of the age (Matt 28:20)and the Holy spirit will lead the apstles and the successors in to the fullness of the truthafter the ascension to heaven (john 14:16-17). He veven said, "If anyone refuses to listens to the church, treat him as as if you would a gentile or tax collector.

The bible is made by God through the different prophet and apostles.These people who write those books are conduit of God to write those books.The bible is like a messenger so that the life and teachings of Jesus can be proclaimed all over the world.The bible alone is not the basis of faith,because without God there is no love and without love there will be no faith.And the bible teaches us how to have love, faith, suffering and so on and so forth.

Making the bible is one thing,being inspired to write it is another...anyways.
I will just quote what you have already quoted and hopefully it will make sense.
Matt 28:20-but i'll start from 19.'Go ye therefore,and teach all nations(what exactly were they being told to go and teach to the nations?my answer is the gospel which Jesus had taught them during their walk with him as deciples),baptizing them in the name of the father,and of the son and of the holy Ghost.TEACHING them to OBSERVE all things,Whatsoever i have commanded you(my guess is that these apostles could not keep all Jesus had taught them in their heads and to themselves,they where going to die at some point in time so who was going to carry the commands or words of Jesus forward? so they wrote it down for reference),and lo, iam with you alway,even unto the end of the world.
All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine,for reproof,for correction,for instruction in righteousness.(2 Tim 3:16).
The holy Bible is a book that was wriiten in inspiration of God,Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.Which word?The scriptures found in the bible.The bible guides a christian to live a Godly life,(according to 2 Tim 3:16).
My conclusion is that the Bible was written by men but inspired by God.
If you say we should listern to the church,would you still listern to the church if they talked about nonsense(and just how do you know that what the church is talking about is true),there are so many churches mashroming everywhere its insane.And these same churches,were do they get the doctrine they talk about?
Like i mentioned,faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God(from the Bible inspired by God),and how will they hear when they have no preacher(so the preacher should talk about what is in line with God).
