Good evening,
This is quite a funny post. Anyways, I believe fervently in the divine inspiration of sacred scriptures. I believe that the bible can and does help us in our salvations journey. I believe firmly that sacred scriptures is infallible i.e there is no error in sacred scriptures. Despite these beliefs, I also believe that we are not meant to learn our faith from sacred scriptures and I know for a fact that not everything is contained in sacred scriptures. Those who believe only on what is contained in sacred scriptures, are actually setting a limit to the spirit of God.

When Christ left the earth the only thing he promised us was the paraclete i.e the spirit of God who he said would lead us to all truths. Before the writing of any book of the new testament, the Apostles of Christ have been living and worshipping God through his spirit. Though there was in existence the old testament, the apostles did not learn their faith through the old testament. A classic example was the abolition of circumcision. In the old testament, it was necessary for people to get circumcized in order to be part of the chosen people of God. It was part of the convenant between God and his people but this was dropped in the new testament through the inspiration of God's spirit.

The point I am trying to make here is that not everything is written in sacred scriptures because it was not necessary to do that. The spirit is the only thing needed to live out our christian calling. Though it is highly encouraged to read sacred scriptures and apply the principles in our daily lives, we should note that sacred scriptures does not contain every truth. The spirit of God does and what is in sacred scriptures is only a part of the truth the spirit has for us.

Thank you!

So to summarise, the bible does not include "everything under the sun". Interesting.
