What is the Bible?

Actually not a single book, but a library of 66 books

In short, it is God’s revelation about Himself to His people for His people.

It is History

It is Inspired- or breathed out -  by God

2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the people of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

It doesn’t just contain the inspired Word of God, It is the Word of God

It is Inerrant- It doesn't contain errors.

It is Living and Active- Not simply ink on a page or pixels on a screen

Genesis 2:7 then the Lord God formed the man of dust from the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living creature.

Ezekiel 37:9 Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to the breath, Thus says the Lord God: Come from the four winds, O breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.” So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived and stood on their feet, an exceedingly great army.

It is Performative- It has the power to do things.

Psalm 29: The voice of the Lord is powerful;  the voice of the Lord is majestic. 5 The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars; the Lord breaks in pieces the cedars of Lebanon…  The voice of the Lord strikes with flashes of lightning. 8 The voice of the Lord shakes the desert; the Lord shakes the Desert of Kadesh. 9 The voice of the Lord twists the oaks  and strips the forests bare.
