Why on Earth would I be wanting to be feeling guilty now? Whatever reason would I have to feel guilt?

Firstly...There are verses in the bible that prove and show it is Gods word ...the problem is going to be to show you...since you are not totally convinced..then you are automatically taking away any ability by a christian to validly show you....
I will tell you...That Jesus himself showed that He was not to give another man his OPINION,...but rather speak the word....
One example was with the devil himself ..when Jesus had finished fasting 40 days..
Matthew 4:1-10....read it...the most thing I found was when the devil ..tried Jesus each time Jesus continually used the word to combat him...The devil is our hardest enemy ..besides our own flesh...Jesus would say:.."for it is written,"
OK so if we follow the example of Jesus what do you think a christian is going to do??..
Look at John 7:14-18...Jesus was letting them know that His word was not ..his own word but that of God...but if a man speaks his own word..opinion then he is not sent of God....prior to that the Jews heard Jesus speaking marvelled because that he knew the word...without a man teaching him or showing him...because Jesus is the living word.
Now I am going to show you verses in the bible that will ultimately prove to you...of course if you don't want proof..rather an excuse..then it really doesn't matter what i show you...this is not a complete compilation but enough to prove to you...
Before I outline them...remember If you know anything about God you know He is Alpha and Omega which is the beginning and the end of ALL things...He has already in his mind seen the end of this world and and everything aquainted...He has seen your end ..and mine...
Jeremiah 33:20-21 Thus saith the Lord; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season;
21. Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant,
Ultimately right here what God is saying is if you can stop day and night from happening in it's place and change it's relationship..then you can change Gods word
Next...Psalms 19:7 The law of the Lord is perfect,
Perfect meaning ...complete..there is no more additions..no davinci..lies or other books other than what is already written
Next..Ecclesiastes 3:14. I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
Gods word is forever.Believe it or not thee is another 2 verses like it in the New testament..Revelations 22:18-19..I usually save these for last but ...since they are similiar I will put them together...
Revelations 22: 18. For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
Remember these are just a few verses ...but ..you need to seek the Lord that he might guide your heart ..and give you a genuine love for his word..God bless

It is not a problem that you decide not to believe but the problem is when you are satisfied with the small amount of knowledge you have & you think that It is enough for you to establish a conviction. The world says
If it is not God who said so then who is this perfect God who is full of love & passion & patience towards His people who could come up with all this loving words & actions that proiuved all the times He loves us
Pslam 12:6 And the words of the LORD are flawless, like silver refined in a furnace of clay, purified seven times.
Psalm 18:30 As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.
Isaiah 34: 16 Look in the scroll of the LORD and read: None of these will be missing, not one will lack her mate. For it is his mouth that has given the order, and his Spirit will gather them together.
Isaiah 40:8 The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God stands forever."
Isaiah 55: 11so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it

I AM CONVINCED THAT THE BIBLE is the word of God. Some scriptures say that the words are inspired by the Holy Spirit. You just need to have a simple faith to believe.

not only the author of the bible, but the author of life itself. maybe you believe everything just happened by accident. that actually takes more faith to believe than the belief of a superior being using intelligent design. try this, some scientist have tried it and came away with a belief in God, or at least a supreme being using intelligent design - try to prove God does not exist. good luck

AGAIN, WHY DO YOU CARE SO MUCH ANYWAY? YOU DON'T EVEN BELIEVE IN GOD. DO YOU FEEL GUILTY BEING A HOMOSEXUAL AND YOUR TRYING TO DISCREDIT THE BIBLE? IS THAT WHY YOU KEEP ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BIBLE? WELL THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN NO MATTER WHAT. DON'T YOU HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO?
YOU SHOULD FEEL GUILTY CAUSE WHAT YOUR DOING IS SICK, NASTY AND UNNATURAL BUT YOU WILL NEVER ADMIT IT. YOU JUST WANT EVERYONE TO ACCEPT IT, AND PEOPLE WONT. PEOPLE KNOW BETTER THAN THAT. AND I WILL PRAY FOR YOU CAUSE YOU NEED IT. AND WHY DO YOU CALL YOURSELF EARTH ANGEL? WHY DO YOU ASSOCIATE YOURSELF WITH ANYTHING RELATED TO GOD? I DON'T SEE WHY YOU WOULD CAUSE YOU DON'T BELIEVE IN HIM ANYWAY.

Why do need to be convinced? Ever heard of faith? If somebody put a great meal in front of you, would you need convincing? Are you sure it is in fact the sun that rises each day? Do you need convincing that an elevator is safe before stepping into it?

It is not up to the Bible or God to prove anything to you, it is for your heart to be reaching out for something better, higher. It is for your mind to see that man is not has done very poorly in trying to rule himself.
Why do I think it is God's Word? I think it because I don't allow myself to get caught up in the mythology that so many have tried to include in his teachings. Take away all the mythology that has built up over the centuries and you find it is very easy to accept.

I'm not convinced that the Bible is the word God, but rather interpretations of the life of Jesus made by made by fallable men.

I am convinced that the bible is a bunch of tales written over the years by a bunch of different people, it is their interpretation of "the word of God" .
