What is the Bible?

In class tonight, the questions was asked: How would you describe the Bible to someone who had never heard of it before? What would you say?

I wrote (and this was on the spur of the moment):
"The Creator of the Universe wants you to know who he is. He sent his mind, his Spirit into the minds of several men to write so that you could know him, know how he feels, what he thinks, and so that you will recognize him when he calls. The Bible is his Manufacturer's Operational Manual."

What do you think?

You are welcome to say anything you want as long as it is nice. If I don't like it, or it is ugly, I will take it off, place it into the garbage disposal, grind it up, and allow it to be flushed into the Gulf of Mexico where it will be eaten by a fish and then excreted where it will lie on the bottom of the ocean until it is covered up by other comments.
