Proverbs 21:23: "Those who guard their mouths and their tongues keep themselves from calamity." Ephesians 4:29: "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen."
If you are born again you here the sound of the wind - if you hear the Holy Spirit you know that He is not ink on pages but He is the Spirit of the Word of God, and that He takes the words of God which belong to Jesus Christ (The Word of God) and does not speak on His own initiative. So you could not write that the things needed is reading the Scriptures as opposed to listen to our Lord Jesus Christ via His Holy Spirit. So what make you think you are "born again". Do you now have testimonies of hearing Him personally?
I hope so, because He has always been there at the door speaking, but have you ever opened up to Him, so that you come to know Him?
And if so, should you not go back to making it about hearing with faith, instead of leaning on your own understanding of the Law?
Gal 3:1-7 You foolish Galatians, who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?
This is the only thing I want to find out from you: did you receive the Spirit by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?
Are you so foolish? Having begun by the Spirit, are you now being perfected by the flesh?
Did you suffer so many things in vain—if indeed it was in vain?
So then, does He who provides you with the Spirit and works miracles among you, do it by the works of the Law, or by hearing with faith?
Even so Abraham BELIEVED GOD, AND IT WAS RECKONED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Therefore, be sure that it is those who are of faith who are sons of Abraham.
There are those who having begun by the Spirit turn back to their own understanding of the Scriptures, thinking that in them and their own understanding they are saved. But it is those who make in about hearing with faith, like Abraham (who believed even without have the Scriptures to explain this to him) are reckoned are righteous by God.
So it is about seeking the voice of the Word of God (Jesus Christ) which come to those who believe through the Holy Spirit speaking to our spirit. Will He tell you to read the Scriptures? His first words to me were, "Read Your Bible", but what if a person was to make an idol out of the Bible, so that the person stopped seeking Him and His voice and went back to leaning on their own understanding of the Bible - like in the case of the Galatians. Would it not be better for them to tell them to go back to hearing by faith, even if it meant they were told to stop reading their Bible for a while and just focus on hearing the Lord by faith. Indeed what spirit bewitches a person so that they stop hearing the Lord by faith and go back to leaning on their own understanding, even so they start thinking that reading the Scripture is the one thing necessary?
