We know the bible is true, because there are many references to the actual existence of the 4 guys who wrote it, Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.
What you are actually questioning however, is the validity of what those 4 guys wrote. After all, none of them were actually there at the time of Jesus and in fact, none of them wrote anything about the Times of Jesus until 40 to 60 years after Jesus had passed from the lifetime. What they all wrote about therefore, was purely speculative on their parts.
What the 4 guys actually wrote then, was a highly educated, albeit honest guess (at best) and was highly based on one's perception of what Jesus meant, or what Jesus intended within His own words. The problem is, those 4 guys were highly censored to appease the concerns of the individuals who ran the Catholic Church at the time. So in truth, what eventually got written and then translated into the New Testament is really what a bunch of Catholic Hierarchy wanted written, not what the group of 4 tried to write from their painstaking research on Jesus.
The amazing thing is, what Jesus was really all about was 2 things in particular: 1) You cannot die; and 2) Love is all there is. But the very last thing you will ever take from the bible the way it was eventually written, was that you cannot die and love is everywhere. Those two concepts do not exist in the bible as a result of the exact opposite being prescribed by the High Priests. The bible therefore, is exactly the reverse (the opposite) of what Jesus was trying to tell everyone.

@swirlie I didn't say those who wrote about Jesus. I said Jesus spoke of Hell.

Don't be hurt because you wasted your first response on false information.

Oh, I have nothing to be hurt about! What you don't understand is that Mark's scripture you quoted was only Mark's perception of what was going on, not to mention the biased censorship that was applied to that scripture before it was ALLOWED to be printed! That scripture you quote was not a first-hand account because Mark wasn't even there during the time of Jesus!

@swirlie The Gospels are personal accounts of what was seen by the Authors. This "censorship" is conjecture.

@Pfuzylogic
The Authors were not there in person! They never even wrote about Jesus for 40+ years after his death. Therefore, what they wrote about were absolutely NOT personal accounts! You need to start to get real here!
