The Catechism of the Catholic Church (which I see was already recommended here) should help give you a good understanding of what the church’s teachings are on faith and morals. I don’t think there is any private revelation in it (someone correct me if I’m wrong). It is up to you what private revelations will benefit you (well, between you and God… pray about it), but what is in the Catechism, we are supposed to adhere to. If we do not agree with something in the Catechism, it is our Christian duty to find out why the Church teaches what she does on the issue, so that we can conform to the teaching with an informed conscience.
 
wait but just one more question, in the diary of faustina, it said the blood and water that poured forth out christs side meant divine mercy just in the last century, is this infallible or fallible, because until just a century ago it meant this…I am really confused especially about the personal jesus interpertations…
No, this is not an infallible teaching of the Church. It is an insight granted to a holy saint as a way to understand the immeasureable depth and love our Lord has for us. It is a reflection on His divine mercy. It’s a great way of understanding our faith better, but it is not creating a new teaching on the faith.
 
Please answer only if you know alot about the catholic church,if you don’t have anything good to say dont say anything at all please,

what is sacred tradition?
Sacred Tradition is the entire body of what has been passed on. The first example of Sacred Tradition would be the portion of Sacred Tradition that was passed down for the first 50 years or so after Christ and was committed to writing and became Sacred Scripture. The second Cardinal component would be what books compose The New Testament. The Third would be the correct interpretation of the Sacred Scripture.
what does magisterium do?
The Magisterium is the Teaching office of The Church that Jesus Christ founded, The Catholic Church.
I am well aware that God speaks throughout the body ( the church)
If it is from God, as is Sacred Scripture, then it is inerrant because it is from God.
also i already know by personal experiance that god speaks throughout the memebers of the church, namely warnings and other things, are those infallable too? I mean at most points i think it pretty much is seeing as how it happens later on for me or if someone. . . .Or when i right down an inspiration about god from my head on paper, stuff like that in a way.
If God inspires you personally, that is private revelation for you, like with Fatima. That is not binding on The Church.

You clearly have not read The Catechism of The Catholic Church which explains all of this. I would recommend that you read the Catechism, as others have suggested.
