2) Apostolic Tradition: the Word of Godentrusted by Christ to the apostles,
3) Church Magisterium: the Word of God as authentically interpreted by the Church.
The “Catechism of the Catholic Church” (1992) is a statement of Catholic doctrine attested to by this 3-fold source.
The “CCC” is the standard summary of the whole Catholic faith. (GDC 120)
