god is illiterate, that's why 'it' has always got man to write its words down....
Noticed a problem with the situation?
Now you know why religion is just so screwy...

All of them have been 'inspired' by God. Just as the boss dictates to the secretary what to write, so were the holy books. In answer to your question, the two most amazing holy books are Daniel and Revelations. These books have had scientists and archeaologists scratching their heads for years. How is it possible that Daniel knew not only the name of the General who would destroy Babylon (80 years in advance, before this general was born) but How excately this general would take the city of Babylon? Or how did Daniel know about Alexander the Great (300 years in advance) and what he would do, and when he would die, and how his empire would be split? And Revelations...wow. Interesting read, I recommend reading them if only just for insight.

Nothing has ever been written by "god" . Every single piece of religious literature was written by some human .
The claim is that "god" mentally dictated the message . Mental dictation is either superstitious imagination ,or downright trickery .
In all cases , the message received is exactly what the receiver hoped for . Do you detect any funny business there ?

None! However, there are books, called Avesta in Persian, verifiably much older than any Christian scripture, that contains most of Christian doctrine. It contains resurrection, final judgment, individual judgment of the soul at death, Heaven, Hell, Messiah, Final conflict, ( Armageddon) etc. The Jews and their religion suffered drastic changes during and after the Babylonian Exile. All these changes can be traced to Persian beliefs, that were identical to new beliefs, expressed in the Bible after the Exile. The implications of these discoveries are earth shaking, since they strip the exclusivity off the Bible!

The books are in following order:
1) Zaboor (Psalms) - Prophet David (Dawood)
2) Torah (Taurat) - Prophet Moses (Musa)
3) Bible ( Injeel) - Prophet Jesus (Isa)
4) The Holy Quran - Prophet Muhammad
Yes all this are the Holy books sent down by God To the Prophet to guide the people. We believe in them because they rightly guide us. and the present Holy book to follow is the Holy Quran.

God has written four books.
Whereas I do not know the name of the first one, the second one was the Thora, followed by the Bible and, lastly, followed by the Koran.

the main reason that anyone believes in a holy book is because it is *theirs*.
