1) If the 44 authors of the Bible wrote with the influence of the Holy Spirit, could they lie? If any of these did lie, would they do so by the influence of the Holy Spirit?
2) If any of the 44 authors did lie, would the Holy Spirit not have corrected them, as He did Moses and his law of 'divorce'?
3) If the 44 authors of the Bible were dishonest in certain passages, how can you trust they were honest in any passage?
4) If you lack the faith to believe no passage of the Bible is "man made", then how do you have the faith to believe any passage of the Bible isn't "man made"?

Here's the deal.
Religion is the biggest business in the history of the world. The Roman Catholic church is the largest landowner in the world. The Bible itself was reworked and revised at the Council of Trent (I think). Christ was never a deity. The council of Nicea(sp?) saw him deified. Before that he was just a prophet.
Who is the Holy Spirit? This again is something that was concocted. How could the "holy spirit" correct an earthly document? Humans can do anything they want. God does not MAKE you do anything. He is a guideline by which you should live your life. Its up to you to decide how to live in order to get to heaven. the Holy Spirit was not thought of until the new testament. No way it "corrects" Moses. Who was Jewish.
Its called faith for a reason. All it is is a guideline. You have to trust in something otherwordly. Thats all.

No,Because it all makes since in life as the truth any ways,so the bible makes perfect since not to mention the prophecy it predicts.....if you live buy the sword you die by the sword,and that's true,if you steal from people,some one will steal from you down the road,and so on,all the things it says will happen,happen....and we are talking about things written back two thousand years ago or so....But on the other hand the church could have left some writings out and or changed some things around but the Basic message is still preserved,because God is in control Here and not Men...or Satan....

It is totally possible to believe in Christ without believing the Bible, but it's impossible to have a deep relationship with him without bringing his Word into your heart.
John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
I lived my entire teenage life so full of anger against the church that I believe in God and Christ and didn't believe in the Bible. Somewhere along the lines, Jesus really moved in my heart and I've been a stronger Christian ever since. (Not perfect, far from it...just stronger.)

Faith being the key word. The truth is that you will never know. It is your choice to have faith that the bible is the true or to have faith that the bible false.

Yes, but how can we truly know what Christ said? Supposedly, this is what's in the bible, no?
