Friendship Goals: Ruth's Loyalty and Love Pt. 1

Did God hold the pen, or did He inspire the person with the pen?

θϵoςˊ  (theos) means "God" and πνϵˊω (pneō) means "to breathe" or "to blow." It is related to the Greek word pneuma, meaning "spirit" or "breath." It is from these two words that the claim has been made that the Bible is "God-breathed" or "breathed out by God," but who made that claim? Do any of the Biblical authors make that claim for what they wrote? If the Bible has multiple authors spread out over a period of 1500 years, do they have a unifying overall theme? If so, what is this "Big Story" of the Bible, and what role does Jesus play in that story? Does that "Big Story" answer the questions of life, such as Who am I? Where did we come from? Why are we here? Does the world have an end goal?
