The Word of God:
"In order to reveal himself to men, in the condescension of his goodness God speaks to them in human words (CCC 101). Truly, "all scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that everyone who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work" (2Tim 3:16). The Holy Spirit not only inspires the words of Sacred Scripture, he helps us to understand both the realities and the words of our faith Indeed, the the sacred Scriptures “grow with the one who reads them" (CCC 94).
