Do you worship the Bible? Of course not. But is it possible that some people put the love of the Bible over the love of God? If so, how? Or is the love of the Bible inseparable with the love of God?

Yes, I think it is possible and does happen. I think some people may simply enjoy the intellectual stimulation that the Bible gives them and enjoy thinking about what is presented there rather than accepting what is there.

"Before there was a book, there were persons who handed on Christ’s sayings and told of the marvelous things God had worked in him. First came Christ, then the witnesses, then the books. This ordering of things is at the heart of the early interpretation of the New Testament. The goal was to delve more deeply into the mystery of God revealed in Christ, to whom the writings bear witness. We are inclined to begin with the book, with historical context and social setting, words and idiom, grammar and literary forms, religious and theological vocabulary, and many other topics that command our attention. But the early Christians began with the risen Christ, and long before there was a book the faith was handed on orally."
