And in our Bibles today those words are written in red. And even if the statement was past tense, "were written in red", Christ's words have been written in red for a couple generations now. So neither would disqualify the utterance from being authentic. Now, if it said, "Yeah, I say, this is He whose words were originally written in red", you'd have a point.

So this phrase doesn't disqualify the utterance. If it had biblical substance... you might do well to heed it before criticizing the Spirit.

Another point to be made is that while the Spirit speaks through us, He is speaking through human beings. Often the interpretation is limited by the interpreter's vocabulary. There have been times when I interpreted an utterance and later that night realized that I could have used better words to express the meaning of the message contained in the utterance. This inherent limitation within interpreting an utterance prevents us from declaring any prophetic utterance infallible, writing them down, and creating another volume of infallible Scriptures. Therefore, even if an interpreter clearly botches up the interpretation... we do well to consider its validity and the limitations of the interpreter while seeking to understand it.
This forum is really starting to scare me.
