In fact, I dare to say, it's not even the main one. God sent his son, Jesus Christ, to this Earth who himself established the Church. Not understood as some vague, general concept meaning 'all believers', 'all who identify as Christians'. No, the Church as an actual institution, with leaders and hierarchy. And the Bible was one of the means with which the Church was to achieve its main goal - help bring salvation to as many sinful men as possible. Bible is a very important piece in this complex structure but shouldn't be used on its own.Protestants seem to believe that Christianity was built around the Bible but no-one thought this way in the first 1500 years since Jesus was born.</blockquote>
