WHO WROTE THE BIBLE?

There are only five beings who could have written the Bible. These beings are good men, bad men, devils, angels, or God.

It stands to reason that bad men and devils would not have written the Bible because through out its pages they are condemned for their sinfulness to eternal damnation. It does not make sense that these beings would have written a book that condemns them to this fate.

Good men and angels could not have written the bible either, because throughout the pages of the Bible is the phrase “thus saith the Lord.” Good men and angels could not have made that claim without being liars, which would make them bad men or devils.

Therefore, there is only one being that could have written the Bible, and that is God. Therefore, I believe that we have the written Word of God in our hands to day known as the Bible. The Bible is the sole authority for life and faith.
