Many thousands of scholars have studied it in great detail and determined its authenticity.

Many scholars have authenticated a lot of books. There is an authentic Koran, the Baghavad-Gita, the Tao Te Ching. Why don't you follow those books?

Because a scholar authenticates a book doesn't make it's contents accurate or true, theologically. Otherwise, we'd have some difficult choices. So why the Bible and not one of these other books?

“So why the Bible and not one of these other books?”

Because Jesus says so

It is verified in the heart of each individual believer by the Holy Spirit...Odd that you don't know that...

Plus, there are a few hundred prophecies in the OT about the NT times that have come to pass...Without error...No other book or religion can make that claim...Apparently you don't know that either...

But the only way you know the scriptures are the word of God is because your religion told you so...But they don't believe it either...Because their religious tradition over rides the scriptures...
