So...serious question ...please keep scrolling if you are easily offended [I Dont Like Small Talk]

I wonder how I am or anyone for that matter can trust or believe anything written in the bible when it was written by the hands of man ...humans hearts are wicked and lie by it's very nature . How can anyone trust it ? It's not as if God himself wrote these words. I am not asking this to ruffle any feathers ,I am just looking for insight .Just trying to make sense of things that make no sense to me.

Weve gone over this many times on SW and I have a post on my profile how I know the Bible is true. But here are a few reasons how we know.

1.There are people who have dedicated their whole lives to this question, me foreinstance for over 40 years now. The prophesies are very specific and detailed and they have all come true. The most important timestamp is the history of the Jews. NO WAY can their history be fortold thousands of years before if it was not written by Gods inspiration word for word. Every day we notice another prophesy coming true. God said he would scatter the Jews if they went after other gods. He scattered them all over the world. He said they would get killed by other nations and they have. He said he would himself give them back their land in Israel, he did. He said that surrounding nations would attack in the last days and they are. And the very year Jesus would come the first time etc etc. Impossible that over 1000 prophesies come true so specifically, no way!!!

2. God changes lives

3. This book, the Bible tells people the truth, that we are wicked and not as good as we would like to think so therefore people hate it. But I would rather know the truth then read fiction that just makes me feel good. I want to know the truth. The truth is we are sinners and God is mad. But he made an out and he came to take our sins on his shoulders so we can communicate with him again. That is amazing!
