Yes, you have a point there. I will go one further. Do you worship YOUR image of God, or God as God is in him/her self? Most of us worship the God we *think* we know, which may not be who and what God really is. The great mystical theologians say that we must let go even of our concept of God before we can really be one with God.

The Word of God in book form is a form of communication that we can all understand. It's a tool. All the reading in the world won't do much if you have no relationship with Him or deny Him.

in the begining there was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God... and the Word became flesh and walked among us. John 1-1 in the catholic belief the Word is Jesus

I'd have to say the latter. The Bible was never meant to be an idol. One of the commandments that God handed to people through Moses was "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image."
That being said, I respect His Word for what it is and live by it in all ways.
But I don't pray to the Bible.

Are you saying have I replaced Jesus with the Bible? I don't worship any books, but I worship the God and Christ that can be found in the Bible.

The WORD should be written in our hearts and carried out in our actions.

I don't worship the Bible, I worship the One who is responsible for it.

no... Your point is well taken, however. Many Christians misunderstand the nature of scripture.
