Yes John 1 refers to Jesus as The Word but their are countless references where Jesus and the Apostles referred to scripture and or teachings as the Word of God.Pick your nats somewhere else.

It is not a "nat" to oberve the very phenomenon I am taling about in action. Confusion of the Eternal Word with merely the contents of the Bible is endemic.

The Word of God is not limited to the printed word. He operates through the Church and through other means to present Truth to us daily. Looking only inside a book, even The Book, is a fallacy.

Yes but these teachings can not be made up out of thin air with no scriptural basis or in contradiction to scripture.Ever Peter warned against accepting anyones teaching without checking it against scripture.
