The Bible is regarded as a holy book by Christians. For several thousand years, many Christians believe that belief in the Lord must be based on the Bible, and that departing from the Bible means not believing in the Lord.

If all of God’s word and work were recorded in the Bible, we would receive life by believing in the Bible, then why did the Lord Jesus say, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me” (Jhn 14:6)?
