How do we know the Bible is God's Word?

1. Fulfilled prophecy regarding nations, Christ, individuals and second coming.

2. Archaeology - No archaeology discoveries contradict the Bible.

3. Science - The Bible contains scientific facts that were not known when the Bible was written.

4. Unity of the Bible written by 40 men over 1600 years agree without any contradiction.

5. It contains all truth and no error.

6. Bible principles for living all work when applied.

7. The Bible when printed, delivered man from the dark ages and brought blessing to the world. It freed men from superstitions.

Most of mankind/ society did not ever get delivered from the deception(s) of the enemy of Christ.

How did, as written, and as said by JESUS<  "a few" find the narrow road to ETERNAL LIFE while "many" are always on the wide road to destruction ?    We all were lost once,  and now in Christ Jesus are saved who live and abide in HIM,  but how was such grace delivered to us in HIM while so many chose and remain in utter darkness ?!

10) That fulfilled prophecy proves the veracity of the Bible of God's word. Jesus fulfilled over 350 prophecies about Him, and the likelihood of one man doing so by chance was greater than covering the state of Texas with quarters ad asking someone to find a specific one.

How did ABRAHAM and the ISRAELITES, all the PROPHETS and all the followers of YAHWEH ECHAD 

know,  how did they KNOW,  HE is the ONE TRUE GOD,  and HIS WORD (TORAH) is PERFECT and TRUSTWORTHY FOREVER ? 

They did not see the PROMISE,  yet BELIEVED...... 

They did not see all the prophecies fulfilled, if even any of them.....  yet BELIEVED (the faithful ones who did not turn back to idolatry or to rebellion against YAHWEH ... )

Holy Scripture is a written record of the Word of the true God that was spoken by Him to His prophets/saints

and there is no way to know His truth except through faith, i.e. reading holy scriptures is usually not enough by itself to understand/know His truth, but there is usually a need to practice the faith in Him so as to receive "anointing" from Him - after all, the true Saints were the ones that wrote the holy scriptures, and They were able to do it through the true faith

so every person that has practiced the faith properly for a long enough time is surely able to understand the truth of God and knows it very well, and is able not only to understand the holy scriptures correctly but also to write such books and explain the truth about the invisible(spiritual) things (of God), while people that read scriptures and have no anointing from the true God can neither understand the holy scriptures correctly nor explain what the Word of God has witnessed to, because they don't even know the things of God

so Holy Scripture is something only in the hands and the minds of the true brothers in faith, while people that are not (and haven't for a long enough time been) in the true faith may consider the holy scriptures (to be) foolishness/madness or perceive, interpret and even present them in a distorted fashion, the result of which is (a development of) "knowledge" which doesn't reveal the truth of the true Lord God, but rather supports the delusion coming from the "darkness"

for that reason even reasoning is better than reading of scriptures; for example, i can calculate that 2 + 2 is 4, while reading books i may not find the solution to that problem therein - so is the difference between the practice of faith and the reading of scriptures - you can even receive revelations from God through faith, while you may not find the explanation for those things in scriptures only by reading

there have been people that denied everything which is uncertain or unproven to them (as to God and things of God) in order to seek the One Who is really the true Lord God very carefully, accurately, precisely and thoroughly - they have found Him after months and years of perseverance in such practice - namely true brothers in faith and true Saints such as the Ones presented in the Bible
