What are the Christian scriptures?

The Christian scriptures refer to the collection of sacred texts that are considered authoritative and inspired by Christians. These scriptures include the Old Testament, which is shared with Judaism, and the New Testament, which contains writings specific to Christianity. The New Testament includes the four Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), the Acts of the Apostles, the Epistles (letters) of various apostles, and the Book of Revelation. These scriptures are considered the foundation of Christian belief and practice.
