Explaining the Bible - salvation through Jesus Christ: What the Bible is

💬 [どんな] goes before a noun and asks what kind of thing it is: [どんな本], [どんな人], [どんな場所]. If there's no noun after it, use [どう] instead: [どうですか。]

💬 In [どんな本ですか。], Japanese often leaves out the subject when it's obvious from context. So this literally feels like [What kind of book is it?] without having to say [it].

💬 [は] is written [は] but said (wa) when it marks the topic: [聖書は本です。] You'll hear this in countless basic sentences, like [これはペンです。]

🇯🇵 [神さま] is a warm, respectful way to say God in Christian Japanese. It sounds more personal and devotional than the more formal [神] in many church conversations.

💬 Put [の] between two nouns and the first one describes or belongs to the second: [神さまの愛] = God's love, [日本の教会] = church in Japan / Japanese church.
