If you don't like what God wrote in the Bible, why don't you write your own "holy" book(s) like J. Smith or Ellen White?

God doesn't write books, that's for men.

Wrote in the sense that the thoughts contained were inspired by God. Hence, He is the Bible's author, not his 40 amanuenses :)

Uh, you think God wrote the Holy Bible? The Perfect Book of books? Perhaps you know what language He wrote it in. And if He translated it. The if He later edited it. Then if King James had His phone number for all those revisions. And if the Vatican left out a few of the more inconvenient chapters. Then you should take it to a good editor to take care of that little continuity problem. Can't have the Holy Bible full of inconsistencies can we... Or do we? Good luck with that,

The Creator employed 40 amanuenses to put together the 66 books of the Bible over a span of some 1400 years. It was composed in ancient Hebrews, Aramaic and Koine. Thanks to the thousands of ancient manuscripts available in its original languages, no other historical writings are as well attested to as the 66 books of the Bible. As far as its canon is concerned, the "Protestant" canon agrees more with the very first Bible, The Tanakh, than with the Catholic and Orthodox canons. This is significant because The Tanakh is decidedly older than the Catholic and Orthodox canons making these illegitimate adulterations of the Bible.

There seems to be a lot of information on what the creator did and who was supposedly chosen to do that work. All from the same source. Sorry, I enjoy stories as much as the next guy, but I believe what I know to be true. I have a fine relationship with my maker. I don't need stories to believe. Nor do I think anyone has a closer ear to God.

Hi Max,
Just want to say that we know what God and his dissiples wrote and we believe it because it sustained through the ages, and God promised that any untruths wouldnt sustain even one century.Mr Smith or Mrs White unfortunately hasnt or will never pass that test. And they didnt changed the gospel of Christ, and of His Holy Father and of the dissiples He put here on Earth to lead and guide us. He promised to be forever with us...Do u believe....I do...Like (1)

He didn't. Imperfect man passed the words down over centuries before it was compiled. But it is an incredible book(s). He certainly guided the writing.
