Blessings to you, the readers of this page, in Jesus Christ our Lord. May He guide you and protect you always.
The words of Jesus are the most important words in the Bible. His words are spirit and they are life itself. His words, and His alone, should be the foundation of our life. As Jesus says, "the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." (John 6:63b KJV)
As Bible Christians, we believe in the Bible as the Word of God, sufficient for all good works.
"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is
profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction,
for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God
may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good
works." (2 Timothy 3:16-17 KJV)
And we also believe that we should live by every word that comes from
the mouth of God.
"But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall
not live by bread alone, but by every word that
proceedeth out of the mouth of God." (Matthew
4:4 KJV, quoting Deuteronomy 8:3)
Nevertheless, some words in the Bible are more important than others.
Some words should be the foundation, and others should be the
ornaments on the roof.
The Bible itself says that the words of Jesus are the most important words, the foundation of our life.
MATTHEW 7:24-27 (KJV)

24
Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and
doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built
his house upon a rock:
25
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds
blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it
was founded upon a rock.
26
And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and
doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which
built his house upon the sand:
27
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds
blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was
the fall of it.

LUKE 6:47-49 (KJV)
47
Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth
them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
48
He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep,
and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood
arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and
could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
49
But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that
without a foundation built an house upon the earth;
against which the stream did beat vehemently, and
immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

mine but the Father's who sent me.
