You are correct in this sense, Jesus words are important, if you are not using them word for word, then why bother with any of it?What you believe isn't important.

Arbitrary criteria are arbitrary.I agree with you 100%, but my way is totally different than yours, I am critical of anything and everything if it is not word for word Jesus words or an Apostles words or spoken from God when he speaks to Moses.

James 2:20
You quoted it about faith. And yes, faith without works is dead.In context, it's about Pauline doctrine. The beliefs that constitute faith have to come from somewhere.
Behold, his soul [which] is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.
Habakkuk 2:4
Yep. Exactly.Beliefs are important to the believer since they guides their behavior.
And, as a man, you are deciding it isn’t?A text being endorsed as canonical by men doesn't make it the 'word of God'.
