The Bible is the inspired Word of God (2Tim. 3:16; 2Peter 1:20). God used at least 40 different people, over a period of around 1600 years from Genesis to Revelation, from different backgrounds, different places and different times, to write down His Words. The Bible from the book of Genesis to the last book, the book of Revelation, unifies in its message. The word in the Greek is "Theopneustos" in 2Tim. 3:16, and means divinely breathed (God breathed). The Bible is literally the breath of God.
Because the Bible is God breathed (the Word of God), we can be sure the Bible is truth. God is truth (John 4:16 & Deu. 32:4), and God cannot lie (Numbers 23:19)~ and because God is truth, God can never inspire error, but He can only inspire truth. This means the Bible is inerrant and infallible. The Bible contains no errors, and the Bible can not deceive you nor lead you into error. The Bible can only lead you into His truth because God's Word is truth (John 17:17). The Bible is the only Book of its kind.
