The bible is a collection of scores of inspired books/texts from ancient prophets to the disciples of Christ and their followers accounting for thousands of years of Jewish history and revelations by God to his chosen people.

So we have dozens of prophets and disciples all saying the same thing in a logical sequences as revealed by God. There are dozens of witnesses to the fact.

I have answered your question, if I remember correctly u are a muslim,
My question to u now is who wrote the quran.

What an answer...who were they? how close were they?
Your answer:
Companions of the prophet wrote the quran. . they were very close to d prophet, they've seen, talked n lived their lives wit d prophet..

on many occasion the quran indicate Allah is praying, to whom did he pray to? I created a thread about this and they deleted it. Infacte the quran does not say Allah exist before the world was.

I need to see the claimed of the rest gods to know if they are suitable for the first caused, as in now, only the bible God made such claimed, he exist before the world began.even Jesus say he share the glory with the father before the world began.

Surah Al-Hadid.
1. All that is in the heavens and the earth glorifieth Allah and He is the Mighty, the Wise.
2. His is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth; He quickeneth and He giveth death; and He is Able to do things.
3. He is the First and the Last, and the Outward and the Inward; and He is Knower of all things.
4. He it is Who created the heavens and the earth in Days; then He mounted the Throne. He knoweth all that entereth the earth and all that emergeth therefrom and all that cometh down from the sky and all that ascendeth therein; and He is with you wheresoever ye may be. And Allah is Seer of what ye do.
5. His is the Sovereignty of the heavens and the earth and, unto Allah (all) things are brought back.
6. He causeth the night to pass into the day, and He causeth the day to pass into the night, and He is Knower of all that is in the breasts.
7. Believe in Allah and His messenger, and spend of that whereof He hath made you trustees; and such of you as believe and spend (aright), theirs will be a great reward
8. What aileth you that ye believe not in Allah, when the messenger calleth you to believe in your Lord, and He hath already made a covenant with you, if ye are believers?
9. He it is Who sendeth down clear revelations unto His slave, that He may bring you forth from darkness unto light; and lo! for you, Allah is Full of Pity, Merciful.

The Bible is the most
remarkable book ever written.
About 40 men of several
countries and many
occupations did the writing.
They wrote over a period of
approximately 1500 years and
in three languages - Hebrew, Aramaic,
and Greek. Yet the Bible is an well-
organized unity with one great theme
and central figure - Jesus Christ. All of
this would be impossible unless the Bible
had one supreme Author - and it did -
the Holy Spirit of God.
A. The Age Of The Bible
The earliest portions of Scripture
date back more than 3,300 years.
However, its message has been
fresh and relevant to men of every
age and generation. Its pages are
still producing new gems of truth,
even to those who study them the
most.
B. The Demand For The Bible
It is by far the most widely circulated
book in the world. Since 1804, more
than 800 million Bibles and portions
of Scripture have been issued. These
figures are from the British and
Foreign Bible Societies alone. Every
year more than 22 million copies of
the complete Bible and New
Testament are circulated around the
globe.
The Bible has been translated more
than any other book. Each year we
see an increase in the number of
translations. The following figures
reflect this steady growth.
In 1500 A.D. it had been printed
in 14 languages.
In 1600 - about 40 languages.
In 1800 - about 72 languages.
In 1900 - about 567 languages.
In 1937 - about 1,000 languages
In 1970 - about 1500 languages.
In 1997 - to date, at least partially
translated in more than 2100
languages.
(Wycliffe Bible Translators are
currently working on an additional
1000 languages.)
3. The Uniqueness Of The Bible
(This material and more information
under this topic can be found in
Evidence Which Demands A Verdict. Josh
McDowell, pp. 16-25)
A. Unique In Its Continuity -
The Bible has an unique continuity when
you consider that...
it was written over a 1500-year period;
written over 40 generations;
written by over 40 authors from every
walk of life including kings, peasants,
philosophers, fishermen, poets,
statesmen, scholars, etc.;
written in many different places.
B. Unique In Its Survival -
1. Survival through Time -
Being written on material that
perishes, having to be copied
and recopied for hundreds of
years before the invention of
the printing press, did not
diminish its style, correctness
or existence. The Bible,
compared with other ancient
writings, has more manuscript
evidence than any 10 pieces of
classical literature combined.

NoO!
Who are the authors?
Check history they neva existed, hence the bible is nt the word of God. that's it. the most closest was Paul who wrote it 40yrs afta Jesus departure. And he was a bounty hunter who used to take Christians to Romans for slaughter and yet christians read n believ wat he wrote. Imagined Jews of today believin wat hitler fter slaughtering them.
At once he began to preach in
the synagogues that Jesus is
the Son of God. All those who
heard him were astonished
and asked, "Isn't he the man
who raised havoc in Jerusalem
among those who call on this
name? And hasn't he come
here to take them as prisoners
to the chief priests?" Yet Saul
grew more and more
influential and baffled the
Jews living in Damascus by
proving that Jesus is the
Messiah.
— Acts 9:20-22


His initial reaction to the newly formed Christian movement was to zealously persecute its early followers and to violently attempt to destroy the movement. Paul's dramatic conversion while on the road to Damascus was clearly a life-altering event for
him, changing him from being one of the early movement's most ardent persecutors to being one of its most fervent supporters. Paul began to preach that
Jesus is the Christ , the Son of God.

So technically this paul, Saul of tarsus deceived Christians ...
And by the way the Bible is full of errors n contradictions... So Paul Paul...

They won't show themselves

Hmmm...

[quote author=malvisguy212 post=34370663][/quote]Who wrote the Bible? how close were they to Jesus?

malvisguy212:
good, you adress the first claimed of agnostics. You know what I notice in your post? You want to worship a God who can have a personal relationship with you, and can communicate with you the way you choose. You see my friends, in the bible we read how the prophet pray and the next verse will tell you God answer there prayer and revealed himself to them, the truth of the matter is that the God did not just straight away answer there prayer, one thing you should know is that the bible was not written as a STORY book, it was written on how human can have personal relationship with God, bible say adam HEARED the footsteps of God in the garden, what does this mean? It mean God and man were very close to each other before the fall. This is what God want from us, we should know HIM.

I don't have explanation of what happened before God began creation, but what I do know is that God is a spirit(john 4:24) spirit don't play by the rule or time of human . when you read the claimed of other gods, you will notice there claimed is similar but the different is there nature. This is not a coincidence.

The people who wrote the Bible neva met, seen, or
talked to Jesus? Who are Matthew, Luke, Paul?
Paul who? Matthew who? they don't even kno their
Bible had anonymous writers wit no surname. they
record "according to" even in d modern world it'll
not be accepted, only Christians. . ... different
versions, who wud follow that for God sake?

basilico:
Did he even exist

This is yet another clear verse stating JESUS CHRIST IS THE ALMIGHTY FATHER

Romans 9:5

Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of the Messiah, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen. NIV

Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are their ancestors, and Christ himself was an Israelite as far as his human nature is concerned. And he is God, the one who rules over everything and is worthy of eternal praise! Amen. NIT

To them belong the patriarchs, and from their race, according to the flesh, is the Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever. Amen. ESV


The ancestors are theirs, and from them, by physical descent, came the Messiah, who is God over all, praised forever. Amen. HCSB

To the Israelis belong the patriarchs, and from them, the Messiah descended, who is God over all, the one who is forever blessed. Amen. ISV

To them belong the patriarchs, and from them, by human descent, came the Christ, who is God over all, blessed forever! Amen. NET BIBLE

And the Patriarchs; and from them The Messiah appeared in the flesh, who is The God Who is over all, to Whom are praises and blessings to the eternity of eternities, amen. ARAMAIC BIBLE


The Messiah is descended from their ancestors according to his human nature. The Messiah is God over everything, forever blessed. Amen. GOD'S BIBLE


whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh is the Christ, who is God over all things, blessed for all the ages. Amen. JUBILEE


THE MESSIAH IS GOD OVER ALL

No he is not, he didn't say...who says that he is? who wrote the Bible? did Jesus read d Bible?

Hypocrisy, hopelessness, and lack of purpose is when GEJ supporters dwell on what type of wristwatch is worn by her Excellency Aisha Buhari. change ur moniker we're way past that

barcanista:
I find it repulsive when supporters of the government and APC try to play fast on our collective intelligence. I believe that it is patriotic to set the record straight with respect to Asset declaration.

Declaring of Asset With Code of Conduct Bureau
According to the law, EVERY category of public officer MUST declare their asset before CCB.

This every government official fulfilled.
The CCB Chairman in 2012 confirmed that exPresident Jonathan declared his
www.vanguardngr.com/2012/09/jonathan-has-declared-assets-bureau-chairman/

This is EXACTLY what Buhari and Osinbajo did...

Note: that it isn't mandatory for assets to be declared in publicly, but mandatory to do so with code of conduct

["Public" Asset Declaration(PAD)
Unlike CCB declaration, PAD declaration is subject to the wish of the office holder. Musa Yaradua in year 2000 first declared his asset PUBLICLY as Governor of Katsina state. Details of his asset and liabilities was published. In June 2007, against the advice of CCB he went ahead to publish details of his assets and liabilities and those of his wife Turai yaradua. (nm.onlinenigeria.com/templates/?a=10124)
He never waited for CCB to publish it neither did Yaradua tell anyone to make demand for it by invoking the FOI law. CCB only does verification, they DON'T publish asset as declared.

For the record, even before the passing of the FOI, any citizen can petition CCB or get a warrant from the Court for the release of asset declaration form of a public officer. It doesn't translate to "public declaration"
[The "Not so Smart" Buhari:
While campaigning, Buhari made a pledge to Publicly Declare his asset...

Rather than public declaration, President Buhari did what every public officials have been doing by ONLY declaring with the CCB. To add salt to injury, Buhari through his Aide Alhaji Shehu Garba said Buhari has "fulfilled his promise". In his own words...

He went further to say that Nigerians can "invoke the FOI" if they want details which is not different from the norm.

For the record, there is no law that set time limit for public declaration of asset, neither is there any law that illegalise public asset declaration.

Buhari Has No History of Public Asset Declaration, Yaradua Does
Buhari has served in various capacity as State Governor, NNPC boss, Petroleum Minister, PTF(special) boss and Head of State yet never has he declared his asset publicly. Buhari has no history of open asset declaration unlike yaradua.

As Governor, Yaradua never promised to declare PUBLICLY his asset in 2000, yet he did. He repeated same as President in 2007.


Finally, Buhari and his followers should understand that the image of the President will be affected if he continue to insist that "he has fulfilled his promise" by not doing what he promised to do


May God bless Us All

So much eagerness to criticise Buhari. While you're at
it, please apply common sense

Great write-up but you messed up by saying "christianity". Is it because the alfa clerics. Do theirs secretly? Go and investigate how alhajis make money maybe you'll understand. I'm not advocating for either of the two am trying to explain how it is 'some pastors' that are hiding under Christianity to steal and defraud. Should we say democracy is a fraud because Nigerian leaders have constantly suck the nation dry?? What about your tribalistic Buhari??

malvisguy212:
mujahid1339 how is this an answer to the op? You are clueless and cannot defend your prophet. All what you copy and paste are the old testament law, they live by the divine law of God, and when you break the law of God who don't tolerate sin, it's punishment.

The amalikites you accused the isrealite of killing are a nation who is far stronger than the isrealite, but God was on the side of the isrealite. The amalikites first attack the isrealite during the exedus in the desert, when they are legging and thirsty , the amalikites attack with out provocation. During the time of judges, when the isrealite planted crops, the amalikites will invade there farm and harvest it, God judge them but He waited for soo long until the fill up there measures.

On slavery.First, we must recognize that the Bible does not say God supports slavery. In fact, the slavery described in the Old Testament was quite different from the kind of slavery we think of today - in which people are captured and sold as slaves. According to Old Testament law, anyone caught selling another person into slavery was to be executed:

"He who kidnaps a man, whether he
sells him or he is found in his
possession, shall surely be put to
death." ( Exodus 21:16)

So, obviously, slavery during Old Testament times was not what we
commonly recognize as slavery, such as
that practiced in the 17th century
Americas, when Africans were captured
and forcibly brought to work on plantations. Unlike our modern
government welfare programs, there was no safety-net for ancient Middle
Easterners who could not provide a living for themselves. In ancient Israel, people who could not provide for themselves or their families sold them into slavery so they would not die of starvation or exposure. In this way, a person would receive food and housing in exchange for labor.

So, although there are rules
about slavery in the Bible, those
rules exist to protect the slave.
Injuring or killing slaves was
punishable - up to death of the
offending party. Hebrews were
commanded not to make their
slave work on the Sabbath, slander a
slave, have sex with another man's
slave, or return an escaped slave. A
Hebrew was not to enslave his fellow
countryman, even if he owed him
money, but was to have him work as a
hired worker, and he was to be released
in 7 years or in the year of jubilee (which
occurred every 50 years), whichever
came first. In fact, the slave owner was
encouraged to "pamper his slave".

Bible rule on slave:
"If a man strikes his male or female
slave with a rod and he dies at his
hand, he shall be
punished." ( Exodus 21:20)
"If a man strikes the eye of his male
or female slave, and destroys it, he
shall let him go free on account of
his eye. "And if he knocks out a
tooth of his male or female slave, he
shall let him go free on account of
his tooth." (Exodus 21:26-27)
"He who strikes a man so that he
dies shall surely be put to
death." ( Exodus 21:12)
2. "Six days you are to do your work,
but on the seventh day you shall
cease from labor so that your ox and
your donkey may rest, and the son
of your female slave, as well as your
stranger, may refresh themselves.
(Exodus 23:12)
3. Do not slander a slave to his master,
Or he will curse you and you will be
found guilty. ( Proverbs 30:10)
4. 'Now if a man lies carnally with a
woman who is a slave acquired for
another man, but who has in no way
been redeemed nor given her
freedom, there shall be punishment;
they shall not, however, be put to
death, because she was not free.
( Leviticus 19:20)
5. "You shall not hand over to his
master a slave who has escaped
from his master to you.
( Deuteronomy 23:15)
