The Bible contains a great deal of information that needs you to consider the cultural, social and geographical context of that time. This can make it harder for modern, First World Christians to understand. The Bible is also a literary work that uses many aesthetic and textual features to communicate the message- such as metaphors, symbolism, allusion, allegory and imagery. Some people have a harder time identifying these features than others.

What is one reason a Catholic may find the Bible hard to understand?
One reason that a Catholic might find the Bible hard to understand is that they are not reading it with the mind of the Church. Another reason might be that they don't understand that it is literal and NOT literalistic. In other words, take the Creation story in the beginning of Genesis (the first creation story). It is literally true: God created EVERYTHING out of nothing. A literalistic interpretation would be that He created it in six twenty-four hour days because it references "days". But the Bible is NOT literalistic, and must be interpreted literally in the genera that it is using: myth, parable, allegory, etc.

What is the christian important book for their religion?
By far the most important book for Christians is the Holy Bible. While other books may be helpful in studying the Bible or in conducting a Christians life, the Bible is the final authority on every issue and every other book should be judged by it. Where any other writing disagrees with the Bible, a Christian should believe the Bible. If you should desire to get a Bible and are confused about which translation to purchase you should first of all know that all the major translations are accurate and agree with each other - so go to a Christian book store and ask if you may read some from a few different translations (I suggest you read selections from Genesis, Psalms, The Gospel of John and Hebrews) to get a feel for what you are comfortable in reading and understand the best. Other books that may be helpful in you studies are: Strongs Exhaustive Concordance, Halleys Bible Hand Book and a Nestles Greek Interlinear.
