Why do Christians use the Bible?

Answer 1

Christians use The Bible because we believe that god came down from heaven to die for our sins.

ANOTHER ANSWER

Christians use the Bible because it is the word (Word) of God, and because we are commanded to study it. These words are called 'Scripture.'

2 Timothy 3:16-17 KJV All scripture isgiven by inspiration of God, and isprofitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: (v.17) That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

2Ti 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

In case anyone says these above quotes are just the writings of Paul, Peter specifically says that Paul's writings are Scripture:-

2 Peter 3:15-16 MKJV And think of the long-suffering of our Lord assalvation (as our beloved brother Paul also has written to you according to the wisdom given to him (v.16) as also in all his letters, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which the unlearned and unstable pervert, as also they dotheRESTof the Scriptures,to theirown destruction).

(Peter wrote this shortly after Paul had been executed and before his own imminent death, so he didn't have any reason to lie! )
