Words of God came from Jesus, His son. I read them, and hear the same and even more. Do you allow to God to say more?

The entire Bible is the inspired word of God. Meaning it came from the Spirit of God. The red letters showing the words from Jesus' mouth are not any more true.

Let me show you something about the Holy Bible.
God "Honors his word, above His Name".
The Bible is His word.
You dont feel the same way, and until you do, the Bible is under "lock and key"
See when you have no love for God's word, then something is very wrong with your discipleship.

I’ve spent my adult life reading the Bible (Old Testament and New Testament) and encouraging all people - believers and unbelievers - to read it daily. I’ve heard a lot of reasons from people why they don’t. Why don’t you?
I'm not digging deep, just sharing useful information. If you’re slow to judge, you can discuss it with God. A reminder: when you come to God, don’t seek to have your opinion or idea accepted. In prayer, always desire to hear God. Don’t try to prove your point of view. This is how we should pray.
My understanding of God’s design:
Every creation is loved by God and has its specific guidance.
Particles of matter have laws; they continuously obey these laws.
Simple organisms are guided by reflexes as a whole, and each organelle and molecule follows other specific laws.
Animals have everything mentioned above, plus instincts.
What is common to all these creatures? They weren’t designed to understand or question.Intellect is a tool to calculate and compare, but not guidance. The smarter you are, the better you serve unreasonable instincts..
For humans God dedicated something special. You know what I'm talking about.
All creatures but humans have their special, dedicated by God guidance nonstop - day and night.
First, we don't follow the right guidance, and second, if we do, we do it sometimes. But as Jesus promised - we will have the source of living water and nobody will teach each other.
Does Anything here contradict the word of God?

If you are ever able to post any, then that will give the forum members a chance to reply.
I read the Bible and it was an instruction for me on how to come to God.
I need guidance nonstop. It is not enough for me to "eat and drink" on Sundays and when I have a time to read Holy Books
That’s good. How many times have you read the Bible? How long has it been since you have?
What Holy Books are you alluding to?

Do you understand that Word of God is not in human words. God doesn't speak English words to your head. The Bible is texts inspired by God. One of my previous reply, where I talk about guidance is inspired by God. Will anyone try to say to me thar I am wrong?
Are you aware that for Christians the process of being in a Sunday service, praying before meal and 30 minutes reading the Bible is a check mark in the list of what God want me to do. How many believers have a continuous God’s presence in their life? If I am wrong, then why people singing and lifting hands as it something special in that moment? People come to get inspiration for the rest of the week. Like a dose of some type of drugs. I found the way that Jesus taught. I want to see that people ready to hear God's message. I don't want this message to hit the wall.
No, I wasn’t.
I’d like to ask again: How many times have you read the Bible? How long has it been since you have?
“I even don’t read the Bible!” - your post #43
I can't say how many times totally. I have read gospels many times. The old testament was read by me inconsistently from A to Z but partially when I needed certain chapter or prophet.
Recently I was reading only curtain pieces to recall direct literal words, not meaning.
All Christian literature, including the Bible. I don't have any special books to dig into. My faith based only on my experience. It was time when I rejected all religious ideologies. Non of existing reflect my views and values. I have visited many churches. No one wants to listen. Nowhere I can talk about God and share the gold I found. It doesn't mean that I only want to talk.
the Treasure I found keeps me attracted to It and replaces all additions, including politic, intertainment, video. I don't need inspiration. I need more what is from God. More I have it - more I want. But looking back, I realize how it is hard to overstep the barriers. Even if I understood and remember, I couldn't achieve it on my own. Who wants to listen?
That's rich. Says the person who ignores 1 John 1:8 and disregards God's words about repenting.
No. It is not me who wants this. God is demanding it. But I'm waiting for anyone with an opened mind, who's still seeking for God. I realized that even if I know God, I need to look for Him every day in my own life. I'm growing, and my perceptions are changing and I need constantly reevaluate my view of God. In early days was enough for me to pray once a week, or just declare that I believe in God. Now I need God as an air.
You can't justify by accepting God's existence. Heart must be tuned to seek Him in every moment.
