We often hear "The Bible says "this" and the Bible said "that"". Can the Bible itself be turned into an idol?

Did The Lord God command and sanction the creation of a Bible?

    The Bible is the Word of God given to us for our instruction and enlightenment. And to reveal God.  Is Holy but not to be idolized - rather to be read and learned from and practiced with the help of the Holy Spirit.

    Anything can be turned into an idol, but Christians don't normally turn their Bible into an idol. 

    Leaving aside the fact that there is no such thing as The Bible [you cannot walk into a good Bible store and walk out with The Bible] no Bible refers to itself in its pages as The Bible. So no Bible says or can say that The Lord God commanded and sanctioned its creation.

    The bible cannot even be made into good toilet paper.
