Exactly. Or as Quix pointed out, grounded in nothing more than personal idiosyncrasies or psychological weaknesses.
This is the vigor of the Reformation -- we must base everything we know about God and His plan for our lives on His written word because we have faith the Holy Spirit guides us in our learning.
And when we disagree, we open our Bibles and thrash it out, comparing Scripture to Scripture and context to content, thereby understanding God's will more deeply than before we sat down to read and discuss and debate.
But all this is predicated on Christ's assurance that the Holy Spirit does indeed lead God's children in all righteousness and truth. If we disbelieve that, we are lost.
"Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth" -- John 16:13
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him." -- Colossians 3:16-17
Further, Paul doesn't say to do anything in the name of anyone other than Jesus Christ.

What wonderful verses to ponder. "The word of Christ", not just the red letters but the black letters are the Word of Christ. So first it is a proof text of His diety because most often the Bible is called The Word of God. We know "The Word of Christ" to be the same thing as "The Word of God". But it also puts ALL scripture at the same level. So many people, usually of very weak faith, quote Jesus as if the words in red are the most true. Paul's words, John's words, Moses' words are all just as much the Word of Christ.
