The Holy Bible is not a religious book, nor is it a book about religion, and neither is it an instructional book to teach people how to be religious.
The Bible is about God and His relationship with people, including things past, things present, and things future.
The written words of the Bible are words from the mind of God; therefore, as you read the Bible, you are reading the mind of God, which is why the Bible is also called The Word of the Lord.
If you will read the Bible, you will clearly see that Jesus, the Son of God, did not come to earth to tell the world about a new religion, nor the religion of God, nor to launch a new religion; for God does not need a religion.
Instead, Jesus came to earth to tell the world about His heavenly Father; and we, who believe in Christ, will also believe in His heavenly Father.
As it is written,
This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased: hear ye him. (Matthew 17: 5)
If the Bible is the only book you should have in your personal library, this is the only book you need; for by reading and studying the Word of the Lord, you can receive the greatest education of your lifetime upon the earth: for the Bible is living words.
Obviously, all religions upon the earth are creations by man, and not from God. Which also means that all words of all religions upon the earth are dead words, and there is no life in dead words. And all the work that people do within their religions is dead works because the religions of man are against God, against Christ, and against the Holy Bible.
Obviously, too, all religions upon the earth are created and designed by man to keep the knowledge of God hidden from people: to keep people believing that their way of salvation and their way to heaven can be attained without God. For all religions want people to believe that they will go to heaven by clinging to a religion, and many of these religions want people to believe that hell is no more than a four-letter word. For the ministers and priests of man's religions are Satan's helpers.
Above all else, God wants us to know Him, through His Son, so that we, like Jesus, can call Him our heavenly Father.
Knowing this, God wants us to know the things He has done, to know the things He is doing, as well as to know the things He will yet do---not only in this world where we presently live, but He wants us to know the things He will do for us for eternity; for, with God, there are no secrets: but in the religions of man, these are institutions of dark secrets. And in the Bible, we can read the plans God has for us, and all we need to do to be partakers in His heavenly plan is to simply believe in Him by faith. We, then, can know the future because the future is written in the Word of God, and there will be no other future and this future.
Finally, in knowing God through His Son, Jesus Christ, we become friends of God, for Jesus said,
Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard from my Father I have made known unto you. (John 15: 15)
