So little time to read the entire letter.
in order to have faith one must believe that those things that are written in the bible actually happened as written.
(I do not deny the existence of any of the biblical figures, just their interpretation of what they saw and documented)
Well technically no. You could reject much of what's recorded in the Bible and still have faith and be saved. It's not faith in the Bible that's required, it's faith in Jesus.
What you can't reject is that you're a sinner, and that God sent his only begotten son, Jesus, to pay the price for your sins. And you need to accept Jesus as your Savior through prayer.
Rejecting the rest would probably result in many heretical beliefs, but you could still be saved.
Generally, faith in the Bible and faith in Jesus go hand in hand. But it's entirely possible for that to be largely unhinged.
