The Bible is a collection of books, accepted by Christians as sacred and inspired by God. Providing the basis for beliefs about spiritual matters and providing guidelines for moral living. The Bible is not simply, word-for-word by God; it is the work of around 40 different human authors. The different writing skills, writing styles, personalities, world views, and cultural backgrounds of the human authors can be seen in their works. Many of the New Testament books were originally written as letters rather than as Scripture. Some Bible writings include the authors' own research and recollection of historical events and their own opinions. The bible is my favorite book for many reasons. One reason the bible is my favorite book is because it is enriching and brings me great joy. I have been reading parts of this book since I was a child. My whole family life is based upon this book. The bible helps my family and I get through our day-to-day struggles.
