Hey ya'll!
Whenever there is a debate involving the Bible going on, I see people making a common mistake with who actually wrote it.
Well, here's the answer.
The Bible was written by man. Not God directly, only indirectly. God was only the "inspiration" for the wonderful writings that were made.
Some people will try to take that and twist it into being "Man's Interpretation of God" Which it is not!
The writings, although not directly written by God, are still valid because the writer's weren't interpreting anything, they were just recording events based on what God either told them or showed them in a vision.
Now I may not be making any sense anymore so I'll stop
Post your opinions...Agree or Disagree and why

II Timothy (KJV)
3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
3:17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

XD Okies then.
Well...Check this.
Go to a book store, run to the manga section and read manga. Look at all the awesome artists and say "Wow".
After you're done saying "Wow" however many times you get "wowed", go to the art department and look at the "How To Draw Manga" books.
You find out that this book is reeally awesome, and the best manga artist has done alot of the tutorials in the book. Afterwards, turn around to find that very same manga artist who wrote and drew the tutorials is standing in your way.
He or she offers to teach you how to draw manga personally!
Are you going to say yes or no?
Unfortunately alot of people say no. That's how...interesting it is for people who decline to the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Check this. The manga is all the good and bad things in life, and the manga that sticks with you (and is an award winning hit but yet gets no coverage sometimes) is God's work.
The How to Draw Anime book is our Holy Bible. Written by the Guy who did the manga.
And the artist is the Holy Spirit who wishes to give you a personal tutorial until the day you die. He wishes to be your teacher.
That's how all that works.
The Holy Spirit is the author of the Bible, written through people like Moses, Daniel, John and Luke. But you can only say so much in words. And when the Holy Spirit comes to you, why not have the Author of the bible live inside of you to give you personal help?
Wouldn't the artist refer you to his tutorials in his instructions to you?
Well
Wouldn't the Holy Spirit refer you to the bible in His instructions to you?

God bless

The disciples and the apostles had written the Bible. God spoke to them and told them what to write, and they proceeded doing so. Not only one person wrote the entire bible.

Ofcourse it's God, he's the divine author of the Holy Bible. He just used the apostles and the Prophet as an instrument

A few interesting tidbits the bible is 66 books written by 44 authors on 3 different continents over a period of at least 1,500 years (go figure out the probability that they all confessed the same truths and tell me it is not devine) Quote: although there are about 300,000 individual variations of the text of the New Testament, this number is very misleading. Most of the differences are completely inconsequential–spelling errors, inverted phrases and the like. A side by side comparison between the two main text families (the Majority Text and the modern critical text) shows agreement a full 98% of the time. Quote: virtually all yield to vigorous textual criticism. This means that our New Testament is 99.5% textually pure. In the entire text of 20,000 lines, only 40 lines are in doubt (about 400 words), and none affects any significant doctrine Quote: "No book from the ancient world comes to us with more abundant evidence for its integrity than does the New Testament. Quote: the New Testament is very good--considerably better than the manuscript quality of other ancient documents. Because of the thousands of New Testament manuscripts, there are many variant readings, but these variants are actually used by scholars to reconstruct the original readings by determining which variant best explains the others in any given passage. Some of these variant readings crept into the manuscripts because of visual errors in copying or because of auditory errors when a group of scribes copied manuscripts that were read aloud. Other errors resulted from faulty writing, memory, and judgment, and still others from well-meaning scribes who thought they were correcting the text. Nevertheless, only a small number of these differences affect the sense of the passages, and only a fraction of these have any real consequences. Furthermore, no variant readings are significant enough to call into question any of the doctrines of the New Testament. The New Testament can be regarded as 99.5 percent pure, and the correct readings for the remaining 0.5 percent can often be ascertained with a fair degree of probability by the practice of textual criticism.

well countless jews put together the old testiment. the gospels were writen by four different guys checking four different sets of sources decades (if not longer) after the death of christ. the rest.. pretty sure it was authentic, written by whoever is sited as the author of the book.

As for me, yeah fsho i agree with the original poster. The apostles were the instruments of God's divine revelation and inspiration.
