such lots of errors right here, so little time. i will take one. you're incorrect approximately what the Bible says in regards to the Earth's shape. We now be responsive to that the Earth is a sphere, fashioned like a ball, yet n the Bible, even as the be conscious for ball/sphere is used someplace else, that identical be conscious is by no ability used while it refers back to the form of the earth. In those passages, we see a be conscious which ability circle, that's a flat geometric shape, not a sphere. In yet another Bible passage (Matthew 4:8) it says the devil take Jesus to a intense factor the place they seem out and might see all areas of the earth. This can't ensue if the earth is around, yet could be theoretically accessible if the exterior of Earth substitute right into a flat circle. via fact of those passages interior the Bible, the Church insisted that the Earth is flat. for some years after the Earth were proved to be a sphere, non secular leaders argued that the Earth had to be flat via fact the Bible refers to "the ends of the Earth", and does so approximately 10 circumstances. They argued that the exterior of a sphere would not 'end', while a circle has a constrained area with a diverse area. consequently, people have been afraid and attempted to warn Columbus that if he went too a techniques he could sail off the sting of the Earth. It substitute into the Bible that led them to assert that. Scientists like Copernicus and Galileo have been punished via fact they found out in any different case and had the braveness to contradict that errors interior the Bible. you have different incorrect statements, yet there are too many to handle.

Holy means "Perfect or Pure"
I would like to see some of these holes in the stories in the Bible. It was written by God through the hand of the authors, thus it is absolute truth and has no holes.

Believers know the Bible to be the revealed Word of God.
Therefore it is called the Holy Bible.
With love in Christ.

Our Heavenly Creator, Yahweh God, is MOST HOLY and HE is THE AUTHOR of THE BIBLE aka the HOLY Scriptures. God commissioned HIS Holy Prophets to write down HIS WORD---for OUR instruction!!
The writing of the early books were written by Moses and other prophets of our Sovereign Almighty King, Yahweh. God sent His Word to the prophets by HIS HOLY messengers, the HOLY ANGELS. I really hope you take in this knowledge of the TRUTH. You asked for it---

Same reason the Koran is called the Holy Koran by Moslems.
They call it "Holy" because they long to believe that it IS Holy. They have a stronger-than-average craving for something certain they can count on in this ever-uncertain world.
