The Bible — God's written word, considered sacred and authoritative
From the Latin 'scriptura' meaning 'writing.' In the New Testament, 'Scripture' usually refers to the Old Testament, since the New Testament was still being written. 2 Timothy 3:16-17 is the classic verse: 'All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness.' Christians believe the whole Bible — Old and New Testament — is Scripture: fully human in its writing, fully inspired by God.
