Yes. My KJV Bible is the true inspired word of God. By Faith i believe it. God said it, and i trust every word to be true. I have been saved by the Grace of God. The Bible comes complete.

No, That's a very good question first of all. In my opinion it's really hard to place a name on where most get their inspiration from. Some believe that inspiration is something that humans receive out of necessity, born out of need or something like that. I think that the bible is a book written ahead of it's time when it was written, it's archaic beliefs stem from the way the world operated in the day surrounding it's creation. Now this is just my opinion but, The bible is a book written by the smart people of that time to help people to better themselves. To live your life according to the bible was to live your life for god and that meant a healthy life. There's even a section in there on what not to eat. So to answer your question No I don't believe that the Bible is God inspired. I believe it is Man, as a whole, inspired from the trials and tribulations of it's time. Non-Christian

I am nondenominational, and I do not believe that the Bible is the word of God. It was written by men who were trying to control others. Now, don't get me wrong, that doesn't mean that I think that what Christians believe is necessarily wrong, I just don't think that people should weigh their actions too heavily on the Bible.

I think maybe some of it is and some of it isn't. I think it's entirely possible that a lot of what's in the bible may have been screwed up in translation. I also think it's entirely possible that those who did the translating might have had their own agendas and added extra stuff here and there.
As for my religious affiliation, I really can't answer that. I'm not atheist, not agnositc, but I'm not what anyone likes to call a Christian, either.

the holy bible is the inspired word of GOD i beleive that because much of what is going on today is still being done just old soup warm over but god's word let us know in his word that there is nothing new under the sun and he can advise us in the bible and help us through our trail's and tribulations just as he has done so many in the bible we can find comfort in the word compassion, love,strength, how to give love as well as receive love how to pray we can find self worth, many thing's in the bible god use man to put it there for us if we only open it up and keep it close to our heart's

Yes, I'm a Christian and since the bible gives so many prophecy's in the old testament and so many are fulfilled in the new testament, its very convincing to me, that the bible is true.
