“John 1:1 states “And the Word was God”. So the Lord Jesus Christ and the Word are one and the same. You cannot split the Lord Jesus Christ and the Scriptures (His inspired Word). To do so is an attempt to destroy His authority and His word. “

Huge assumption here. You think the Word is something written. That doesn’t necessarily follow.

In the beginning was the Word. (God spoke and created the world) And the Word was with God. (The Son, the second person of the Trinity) And the Word was God. (Father, Son and Holy Spirit)

You think the Word is something written.

Yes, that is correct, God ordained that it be written down, saying "It is Written". We believe the original writings were Supervised by God (3 Timothy 3:16), Inerrant and complete. We believe that God preserved the Scriptures despite the Enemy and their suppression by Man (Romans 1).

What saddens me here, is the Sophistry Attacks upon the Scriptures and the Lord Jesus Christ. When one tries to separate God's Word and the Scriptures it is an attempt to undermine the Scriptures with the usual results.

The Natural man will attack the Scriptures, it is a part of the Old Sin Nature. He will try to suppress them, belittle them, and dismiss them. Unknowingly or knowingly dismissing the Savior the Lord Jesus Christ along the way.

It is sad to see.
