The 40 writers of the Books of the Bible each had their own writing style, so style would be a difficult way to determine the authenticity of God's Word.
More accurately, the writing would be thematically aligned with the rest of the Bible.
If, as the Bible says, Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever, then it follows that His message would be consistent in all the Biblical writings.
66 books, 40 scribes, One author.

That's quite hard to tell. As you can see the last book which is revelation is written by John. But according to the style it was written they said that it was not written by the same John in the first books. Because of the style of writing. The earlier John is writing in a simple way while the revelation is written in a more symbolic way. So since it is a written book by man by God's word. The style of writing is quite different.

No, they wouldn't. Because they were all written by man... They can't even come up with who wrote the 1st 5 books of the Bible - The Torah. Jewish Tradition states Moses did... but that is merely tradition and in no way is evidence that he did. Besides, the 1st 5 books have different writings styles within them... They even believe that there are 2 or 3 authors of Genesis alone.

The Bible is inspired but it is not the literal word of God. There are some historical errors and omissions and we do not know exactly whether we have the exact words Jesus spoke. There are dozens of inspired works which are not included in the Bible. It's nothing to do with writing style. It has to do with the effect (good fruits) that the work produces. You shall know them by their fruits.

Of course not, the writing styles aren't even consistent in the books that DID make it into the bible (the ones that fit the church at the time).

The books that are absent from the Bible are more intentionally left out verses accidentally.

Since the Bible is a conglomeration of many many writing syles (poetry, historical narrative, jeremiah, testimonies, letters, etc.), no, we would not know it by the writing "style." But we would know it by its content.
