Why do today's Christians believe they need to read the Bible when God puts His law in our hearts & minds & give commandments fm heaven?
God promised under the New Covenant that He would "put His law in our hearts and minds" (Jeremiah 31:33-34; Hebrews 8:10-12; 10:16-17).
Jesus "gives commandments through the Holy Ghost to those He's chosen" (Acts 1:5) and He "choose and ordains" (John 15:16)
(((ALL))) "Christians" (I Corinthians 12:11-12) when He baptizes us with the Holy Ghost (Acts 1:5; 8; 22).
Why do today's Christians believe they have to read the Bible when God has promised He would speak to us DIRECTLY?
How do you (((THINK))) you're a Christian and Jesus had NOTHING to do with it (John 15:16)?
You sound just as IGNORANT as a person telling you that he's on the internet but haven't connected to a service provider.
IGNORANT!
Believing that you're a Christian but have "joined to His Spirit" (I Corinthians 6:17) via Holy Spirit baptism (Acts 1:5; 8) in order for Him to "put His law in your heart and mind" and "give you commandments from heaven" (Acts 1:2; John 3:27).
FICTITIOUS "Christians?"

I'm always amazed at how willing ignorant people are to demonstrate their ignorance.
There are three things described in Scripture that God places within the believer/Christian. 1) A new heart of flesh to replace the stony heart one is born with 2) His law. 3) His Spirit.
These three things are all the same thing, just different descriptives.
The Bible identifies itself as the Inspired written Word of God. There is much to learn from its pages. It is useful for refuting the beliefs of false Christians who refuse to read what is revealed there. They are not going to get truth from God's Spirit if they don't have God's Spirit.

Joshua 1:8 brings out, "This book of the Law should not depart from your mouth, and you must read it in an undertone day and night, in order to observe carefully all that is written in it; for then your way will be successful and then you will act wisely." Jesus was the mediator of the new covenant that God made. It was not a written code of laws, but rather put into the hearts and minds of his disciples by means of the things he said and did. This way, people could have have God’s law “within them” as if it was written “in their heart.” That is why it is important for Christians to read the Bible so that we too can learn what the Law of the Christ is and be receptive in our hearts.

He speaks to us through his word
