Only the passages from Revelation attribute to Jesus a command to write. And all those are in visions.

In his public life on earth, Jesus never mentions writing as a means of transmitting the gospel, only teaching or preaching. That seems odd, if his plan was that ONLY writing was to be used to transmit the gospel.

Read them again.

Who said that ONLY writings were to be used?
