''In brief,'' The word Bible comes from the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek Greek] word for book and has come to be used to refer to the complete collection of documents acknowledged by Christians to be inspired by [[God]]. Inspired by God literally means, "God breathed" - the actual words of God. This library contains 66 books and is divided into the [[Old Testament]] and the [[New Testament]]. It tells of the story of the [[creation]] of the universe and man by God, the rebellion of man against God and his rescue plan for humanity through his Son, [[Jesus Christ]].
