Jesus is the Word. The Bible, from the beginning to the end tells us about him. His word is throughout both books. He has spoken it, thus it is his word. It is true, the Apostles didn't have the NT. They did have the Old. Our Lord quoted it, he even took some aside after his resurrection, showing the scriptures that pertained to him. The book is inspired by the Holy Spirit.
You are being disingenuous, you yourself quote from it. Without the Bible, you wouldn't know Jesus. Without the testimony of the Gospel, you would be lost. It is evident that you do believe in some of it. I am curious though, which parts do you throw away, which do you believe are true?
There is a big difference in using the bible as a tool to learn about the word of god and worshiping the bible as god. Fanatical Christians have lost sight of this.
Jesus often quoted the scriptures but he did not worship the scriptures like some of the other Jewish sects.
Moses said, "Eye for an Eye" But Jesus said, "Turn the other Cheek". How many times do we see Jesus change the scriptures? Jesus was persecuted by sects that followed the law of mosses to the letter, because Jesus didn't. Jesus understood, He and his disciples even picked and ate corn on the Sabbath. he didn't worship the scriptures, He worshiped God, thru the holy Ghost and he used the Scriptures as a tool.
God didn't create man for the Bible, He created the Bible for man
