Best Answer

Because it is the inspired Word of God.

ANSWER

Because God himself is the author of Sacred Scripture. For this reason it is said to be inspired and to teach without error those truths which are necessary for our salvation. The Holy Spirit inspired the human authors who wrote what he wanted to teach us. The Christian faith, however, is not a "religion of the Book", but of the Word of God - "not a written and mute word, but incarnate and living" (Saint Bernard of Clairvaux).

Who is entrusted with the responsibility of authentically interpreting the Christian Sacred Scriptures?

This is something every Christian can do. Many Christians believe they have the Holy Spirit indwelling them and the Holy Spirit will bear witness to the Christian what is truth and what is not truth. Also there are established ways to interpret Scripture to avoid error. For example your should compare Scripture with Scripture. So if you say a piece of Scripture means 'this' and what you say is not backed up by other Scripture then you may be wrong - in a sense allowing the Bible to interpret itself and not someone else. Also, reading the topic Scripture in full context to get the real meaning.
