Bible is a book by men. Some of the Bible contains some hard core propaganda. The Devil quotes the Bible.

Know the Bible but listen to your heart.

“Know the Bible but listen to your heart.”

Listen to the bible and engrave it in your heart.

Actually, I would rather put my whole being into the hands of God and let Him sort out the rest.

Jesus quotes the Bible. Correctly.

The Devil MISquotes it. He applies it inappropriately.

Know the Bible but listen to your heart.

Well, there's a recipe for disaster.

Relying on feelings than the Holy Spirit inspired, God breathed Word of God? No dice.

Jeremiah 17:9
The heart is deceitful above all things,
and desperately sick;
who can understand it?

..”Bible is a book by men”...

Well you’re off to a hard start since the author would disagree.....seeing the Bible as just another book will interfer with your understanding...and therefore why you can see it as propaganda.

You can know any literature but if you don’t know the author you will miss much of the authors meaning....

Listening to your heart will certainly mislead you....emotions come and go and can run like water..and surely be wrong....

Doesn’t sound like you’re on very good footing to start with. Might want to check with God Himself, on all the above, before you form an opinion.
