*Reliability of the Bible *

answering the "originals", "rewitten" & related garbage myths coming from skeptics n atheists: http://snsanswers.blogspot.com/2022/07/short-bible-reliable.html

* see above link notes on why we absolutely can trust the manuscripts & translations, spoiler: 

1. Number of manuscripts from ancient times, even early manuscripts. See links for good 411 on that. 

2. Jews and Greeks are still alive today and they would call out fraud translations of the Bible both those distributed in their countries and in English western countries where millions of them live 🙃.

3. we can read the Bible reliably because there are deep Greek and Hebrew language courses, required for theology, seminary and pastors degrees, and they learn it properly. Christians also have access to many resources incl this

and this https://www.christianbook.com/interlinear-hebrew-greek-english-bible-volumes/9781565639805

to look into, besides what reputable biblical pastors explain from the pulpit, rightly providing truthful information when giving sermons from the Word, history, archeology, culture & language. If they dont, then leave that church. 

*claiming new or addl revelation is flat out lie, deception. OT pointed to Jesus, NT revealed Him. He told the disciples for 3 yrs plus 40 days after resurrection all things to reveal and complete Scripture, plus Revelation. It spoke of present, near future, distant future, end times, Heaven, Judgment Day, end of the world, heaven and eternity. Theres 0 else to say. God said it all. Start to finish, it is full revelation, closed by God. Full canon. Fully given in the 66 books. The end. 

* Joseph Smith and Mohammed were liars, decievers, frauds. A simple look into and even comparison w Scripture tells us that. On why islam book/revelations is false <&>
