Sorry for the delay in answering but I have been out of town today visiting my father.

No problem!

I beleive the bible is inspired because :Heb.6:18 it is impossible for God to lie.

You believe it is impossible for God to lie because a passage in the Bible says so? I find that odd. I believe it is impossible for God to lie because He is God.

Now do you believe the bible is the word of God because God says it. or because man says it?

I don't believe in the inspiration of scripture on its own say-so. I believe the Tanakh is inspired because GOD said it is inspired. Now, he didn't tell me directly. He told my ancestors, who passed this belief down to me. The Book of Mormon and the Koran both claim to be inspired by God. Despite their self-referencing claims, I don't believe that they are. I do believe the testimony of my ancestors, who witnessed the revelation on Sinai, and who received the Law from God Himself.

Yeah, and the bible tells us alot about how much integrity they had. I'd believe them over what God says anyday.
