He's God. It is a God thing we just wouldn't understand.

Isn't it more credible if a document is written over many centuries by many different people and states ONE clear message?
The Bible is the most researched and documented of allancient literatures. There are 100's of more manuscripts of it than anything documenting Julius Caesar, Plato, Aristotle, or Socrates. Yet it is a know historical fact that these people were actual real people.
Also God blesses some with the task of passing along His Word. For example, a millionaire could just give away his money, but how much better would it be if that millionaire allowed other who aren't rich to participate in giving away the wealth, too?!
The Dead Sea Scroll discovered in the 1940's were 1000 years older that any priously know manuscript of the Bible. The DSC could be used to see what changes people had made to the Bible in the 1000 years between sources. The result? NO DOCTRINES or facts were added or changed. The only changes were in the spellings of names and the punctuation. So we can say the Bible is reliable as we have it today.

The Bible was written by scribes. The word from God was given to many chosen people, who all in turn act as a witness as to what God's message was. Ergo, we have many individuals who have gotten the word from God who in turn act as back up resources to show the word came directly from God. If you only had 1 source, you would question that source.

Like with his finger on tablets of stone? I think he did that already, and it scared the hell out of the people.
Wouldn't that be a little dramatic for a whole bible.
Besides after doing that did everyone then and now obey the ten commandments?
I mean does anybody; Lie, steal, murder, adultry, honor their parents, Not be materialistic, set aside one day to worship God.
Not have any other God's?

God only exists if there are people to believe in him, so dictating he bible is a proof of faith.

Not being corporeal through the ages (except in the case of Jesus) he had to use instrumentalities.

Isn't it awesome that He has chosen to write His word through us?
