Simple. Imagine this. You are given a task to record down all the
deeds. Now, of course, for YOU to be chosen, u must either be of
utmost loyal or belief in the person to actually be selected to
record down the deeds. Now imagine this, the last person that
alters for good or ill the records, was found out.. skin ripped
right off, flailed.. disembowled and fed to the dogs while he was
still alive. Unknown to u, there are actually recording devices
watching you, u know something is watching, but u dont know what it
is. All he told u is to record the truth, and what he is about
to tell u. Its 20th century surveillance meeting 1000BC
caveman. No ? Dont understand ? Cant imagine ? No comprande ?

The biblical auhours all believed themselves to be the
instruments for HIs teachings and the spreading of His gospel.
These men were inspired and guided by the Holy Spirit to spread the
message of God and Jesus Christ.
God specifically chose each one of them to tell a unique part of
His tale. We have the Bible today because God uses people who
desire His will above thier own to deliver His message.
We can trust that the Bible is authentic because of the fact
that it was written down, and we know that written text does not
suffer from the same peril as the spoken word. What we say is
frequently changed as it is passed on from one person to another;
what we write down may occasionally undergo minor changes as
language evolves, but actually content meaning rarely changes. In
the case of the Bible, what we have available to us is based on
documnets that are no more than four or five generations from the
originals. The finding of the Dead Sea scrolls offers further proof
that the Bible we have today is faithful to the meaning and intent
of the original authors - who as we have established, believed they
were speaking for God Himself.
No understand ? Let me cut n paste for you. Maybe that will have
more substance.
Who Wrote the Bible - A Letter from God
“Who wrote the Bible” is a question that is undoubtedly asked by
many who are familiar with the impact this book has made on people
around the world. The Bible gives guidance in our journey through
life to eternity, as well as leads us to a relationship with the
God of the universe. It is a historical book that is backed by
archeology, and a prophetic book that has lived up to all of its
claims thus far. In light
of all these facts, asking, “who wrote the bible,” is a vital
question that deserves serious investigation and a serious
response. The Bible is God’s letter to humanity collected into 66
books written by 40 divinely inspired writers. These writers come
from all walks of life (i.e., kings to fishermen) and spans over a
period of 1,500 years or more. These claims may seem dramatic (or
unrealistic to some), but a careful and honest study of the
biblical scriptures will show them to be true.
Who Wrote the Bible - Evidence of Divine
Inspiration
“Who wrote the Bible” is a question that can be definitively
answered by examining the biblical texts in light of the external
evidences that supports its claims. 2 Timothy 3:16 states that “All
scripture is inspired by God….” In 2 Peter 1:20-21, Peter reminds
the reader to “know this first of all, that no prophecy of
scripture is a matter of one’s own interpretation, … but men moved
by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.” The Bible itself tells us that
it is God who is the author of His book.
God does not leave us
with just claims of His divine handiwork in the Bible, but also
supports it with compelling evidence. The design of the
Bible itself is a miracle. Written over more than 1,500 years by
vastly different writers, yet every book in the Bible is consistent
in its message. These 66 books talk about history, prophecy,
poetry, and theology. Despite their complexity, differences in
writing styles and vast time periods, the books of the Bible agree
miraculously well in theme, facts and cross-referencing. No human
beings could have planned such an intricate combination of books
over a 1,500-year time span. Bible manuscripts (remember, there
were no printing presses until 1455) have survived despite weather,
persecution and time. Most ancient writings written on weak
materials like papyrus have vanished all together. Yet many copies
of the Old Testament scriptures survived. For instance, the Dead
Sea Scrolls contain all books of the Old Testament, except Esther,
and have been dated to before the time of Christ. Consider Julius
Caesar’s Gallic Wars. Only ten copies written about 1,000 years
after the event are in existence. In comparison, there are over
24,000+ New Testament manuscripts, the earliest one dating to
within 24 years after Christ.
The Bible also validates
its divine authorship through fulfilled prophecies. An astonishing
668 prophecies have been fulfilled and none have ever been proven
false (three are unconfirmed). An honest study of biblical
prophecy will compellingly show the divine authorship of the Bible.
Further, archeology confirms (or in some cases supports) accounts
in the biblical record. No other holy book comes close to the Bible
in the amount of evidence supporting its divine authorship.
Who Wrote the Bible - A Question of Eternal
Significance
“Who Wrote the Bible” is indeed a question that everyone must ask.
If indeed it is the Word of the living God, then no other book
gives us more insight into our lives, more hope for our future, and
a true path to a relationship with God. Search the Bible with openness and
honesty and see for yourself what the Creator of the universe wants
to tell you!
Maybe someone has pasted this already, but i lack the patience
to go on and on over the same question over n over again, like i
said, if u dont believe, u dont. No point asking questions again,
because by doing so, its no different then specifically targetting
christians for your own ego. Ego in bashing christians ? Maybe its
your thing.. its your fetish. Dont see u asking the Muslims why
they dont eat pork and continuing in your onslaught. Or the hindus
with thier rites. I have responded accordingly, but u dont seem to
look at the senteneces supporting my statement, instead.. go on and
on with the same old question. So hope this super long wall of text
will answer your same question.
How does the bible compare with Sun Tze's Art of War written in
6th century BC? Also re-written and re-interpreted by vastly
different authors (from cave men to ang mohs) in subsequent
generations to apply in many areas (including business management),
but still consistent in its message that detailed planning and
preparation precedes action. No big deal, rite?
And so what if we have the very first edition of the bible? It's
interpretation varies from reader to reader. The various
denomination (Roman-Catholics, Christians, Orthodox Christians,
Jehovah's Witness to satanic groups like Heaven's Gate...etc) is
far stronger proof that the bible is not well-written enough to be
spared from mis-interpretation and abuse. If you are creating a set
of laws to govern the people, will you write the law in an
ambiguous way that is subject to abuse?
