I agree that it is possible to come to the scriptures and yet not come to God. But making a blanket statement that people who consider the Bible as God's Word are all doing that, and are practicing biblioidolatry is going too far.
As the verses you quoted say, "the scriptures testify about Jesus Christ"'; we would thus be fools and be impoverished to not read them and welcome Christ as the living one they speak about at the same time.
The following link is a word search for verses in the New American Standard version that use the term "word of God". One can use other versions too.

So, if the Bible is a compilation of writings from these men of God who clearly were speaking "the word of God" according to these verses, how is it not "the Word of God"?
Then, if "faith comes by hearing, and hearing from the word of God", your statement that "we just come to God by prayer and faith" is missing the precursor of hearing the word of God.
The apostle John was very clear that if we reject the commandments of Jesus to believe in Him and the Father who sent Him (this is written in the Bible), eternal negative consequences result.
OK, I think I've said enough. I've got a busy life and neglected wife
to get back to.
It's been good to discuss this topic with you Evangelical. May the Lord bless you!
