Please consider this I would encourage you to consider the following facts about the Bible. First the Bible is not one books as many think it is, it a collection of 66 books, which is called the canon of scriptures. Second these 66 books were written by 40 different authors which came from a variety of backgrounds: shepherds, fishermen, doctors, kings, and prophets, and most of these authors never knew one another personal. Third, these 66 books were written over a period of 1500 years and the authors never knew or collaborated with one or another in writing these books. Fourth, the 66 books of the Bible were written in 3 different languages, Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic. And finally, these 66 books were written on 3 different continents: Africa, Asia, and Europe. What more these 66 books share a common story line, and a common theme, God’s universal love for all of humanity. And in addition to sharing these commonalities these 66 books contain no historical errors or contradictions. Now if you still don’t believe that the Bible is the inspired word of God and has a supernatural origin. Then let me challenge you to go to any library in the world and choose 66 books which match the characteristics of the 66 books of the Bible. If you can produce such a collection of books, I will admit that the Bible is not the inspired word of God. But I believe the Bible from Genesis to Revelation bears the mark of Divine Inspiration.
