we have proof. fulfilled prophecies.
Fulfilled prophecy is strong evidence that God is the author of the Bible because when you look at the mathematical odds of prophecy being fulfilled, you quickly see a design, a purpose, and a guiding hand behind the Bible. If just one prophecy failed, then we would know that God is not the true God, because the creator of all things, which includes time, would not be wrong about predicting the future. Deut. 18:22 says, "If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously,"
by using the modern science of probability in reference to 48 prophecies
"we find the chance that any one man fulfilled all 48 prophecies to be 1 in 10157, or 1 in
100,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,
000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,
000,000,000,000, 000, 000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
The estimated number of electrons in the universe is around 1079.
It should be quite evident that Jesus did not fulfill the prophecies by accident."

The Bible is too self contradictory for even most of it to be true. The link you make between Jesus and God is a form of the fallacy 'begging the question'. And there is no possible proof of anything like a god. (1)

I already think that there is a god or gods, but I find the Bible to be nothing more than a string of loosely related tales with limited historical accuracy, twisted to "prove" that God is a particular way. I don't think anyone could prove the Bible to be 100% accurate, and I really doubt that anyone could scientifically prove that any god was born in a man's body, executed, and then CAME BACK from the dead.

I would say "I need a miracle" as proof.
But everyday is a miracle, if you look for them, they are there.
When your mom's diagnosis comes back and the dr says "it's just a cyst, dont worry the colon cancer isnt back", that's a miracle. When you help someone at the grocery story get an item down from the top shelf, you've just become a miracle to them. And, when a child is born, that's the greatest miracle of all.

What proof do you offer to satisfy anyone that what it says in a book is the word of God?

I could turn this around on you, especially as a Pantheistic Polytheistic Pagan WHAT kind of proof would satisfy you...for you to know that Isis, Osiris, Tyr, Fenrir, Indra, Shiva, Ma'at etc. exist? and...?
that most of the Bible is a lie stolen from other religions?

Well, the Bible is a lost cause - it's so full of holes and vile propositions that even if it was true, there's no way I'd accept the need to keep slaves, sell my daughters to the highest bidder, stone women to death or burn pigeons because my wife had a period.
But God can prove he exists if he must. Tell him to halt Venus in its orbit and send it spinning in the other direction. God can do that. I'll believe then.

- How about an ark, or evidence of a world wide flood
- How about an account of Jesus' life not in the bible from the same time period Jesus was alive
- How about Jesus' physical remains
- How about a painting of Jesus from the same time period
- How about some proof in the female body that they came from a rib
- How about any unexplainable happening going on since Jesus

Any archeologist discover the location of the Ark of the Covenant?
If they did found the Ark of the Covenant then you know God exist?
If they found "Noah's Ark" then you believe God exist? God exist even this 2 major religious artifacts is not found.
