Scriptures are writings sacred to a group or body of people, and often are primary elements or resources of belief and doctrine for the adherents of many religions. Many of them are regarded by their followers as "inspired" by spirits or gods, even extraterrestrial beings (aliens).
For Christians the only inspired scriptures are those writings which together comprise the Bible.{{cquote|For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth--as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"--yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist. However not all possess this knowledge. (1 Corinthians 8:5-7a RSVCE)
