It describes the nature of humanity and the interjection of God into history in the person of Jesus Christ. The Bible tells the story of Christ's life, his death, and his resurrection. Simply put, I believe the Bible because it claims to be the truth and for two thousand years, communities of faith all around the world have worshipped the God revealed in it.

Here's a great sense of the humanity of the bible!!
"If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them." Leviticus 20:13. "Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them." Romans 1:32.
