Which Bible? We basically have two types of bibles, versions based on the traditional texts (ex. King James, Geneva, Tyndale, Wycliffe, etc.) and the modern translations based on modern critical Greek texts (Rsv, Niv, Nrsv, Nab, Nasb, etc.).
Modern Translations are shorter than the traditional bibles. There are more or less 8000 differences between the Greek text underlying both traditional and modern versions.
Examples of verses in traditional versions omitted or footnoted in modern bibles are John 7:53-8:11, Mark 16 9-20, 1John 5:7, Acts 8:37, 15:34, 28:29, Mat 17:21, 18:11, 23:14, etc.
Therefore, Is it unambiguous? I don't think so. Factual and truthful? Questionable!.

it is said in the Bible that it is God breathed and inspired by God. i believe that God has prevented it from being altered. I don't believe that the KJV is the best because it was written for King James and since then, there have been more scrolls found and translated, and in so correcting some mistakes and now is written in modern english. The KJV was written in modern english of its time, so NIV is just modern english of the time... and probably going to be hard for people to understand in 500 years too.

definite. people who say no have faith that they on my own understand the meanings of each and all the words. No 2 Christian church homes in u.s. can agree on each and every thing. some Christians have faith that Jonah became surely in the tummy of a whale for 3 days. Others have faith it somewhat is a parable. some Christians have faith the literal form of Jews (around 2 million) is precise in the Exodus tale. Others have faith the tale yet at the instant are not bought on the numbers. some have faith in the 40 days and 40 nights as being literal in regard to the flood and Jesus' fasting. Others take it to be greater of a discern of speech which potential a number of days.

I sure hope not because then my faith would rest on a mere book (meaning of the word BIBLE) and not in Christ. Luther - the Bible holds the Word of God as the manger held the Christ.
Unambiguous - Have you studied Quantam Mechanics? Humanity's impression of God is no less.

Ambiguity is subjective. I trust that the bible is the word of God, there are a few errors contained in the script, but they are few and far between.
Mankind can be assured that God the creator of the world, and the one who inspired of the whole Word will see that mankind is given the whole of the word that he needs for his salvation.

Every word is factual. But every word is open for interpretaion at the same time.

the original scriptures like the dead sea scrolls tell us that today's Bible has flaws.
