Holy writings are typically written in a style that reflects religious teachings, beliefs, and values. They often use symbolic language, allegories, parables, and metaphors to convey spiritual truths and moral lessons. The content of these writings is considered sacred and authoritative within the respective religious traditions.
Religious people often see their writings as holy or sacred because they believe that the texts contain divine guidance, teachings, and principles that provide spiritual direction and insight into the nature of existence and their relationship with the divine. This belief stems from the idea that the texts were inspired or revealed by a higher power and hold intrinsic value and authority for believers.

Unlike Judaism, Islam, and Protestantism, Christianity is not a religion "of the book", in other words, it is NOT based on holy writings. Christianity is based on the revelation of the Son of God, Jesus Christ, Our Blessed Lord, to His apostles, who were the founders of His Church, the Catholic Church. The Catholic Church, thus, holds the fullness of revelation, she has received this through Sacred Tradition, which is based on the Tradition which has been handed down to us from the Apostles. Part of this Sacred Tradition was committed to writing in the New Testament, as a kind of preaching, and everything contained in the New Testament is infallible, but the entire of Sacred Tradition is what forms Christianity (Catholicism). The "holy writing" if you will would be the Sacred Scriptures, but they are NOT "holy writing" as viewed by all those other religions.
