It does! ONE BIBLE - ONE GOD - ONE SAVIOR. That's something you cannot possible know - you limited yourself.

I have made the point several times that only the Five Books of Moses were written directly by G-d. Everything else in the Bible had to be canonized by a human authority (the Men of the Great Assembly canonized the Prophets and Writings; the Catholic/Orthodox Church canonized the "new testament). If you accept the canonicity of these books you should accept the authority of the canonizing body. But you apparently believe a big hand came out of the sky and gave Moses the complete Protestant bible all at once.

How do you prove the "new testament" belongs in the Bible at all? In fact, how do you know to believe in the Bible at all? It has to be authorized by an authority external to itself (G-d) or else it has no more meaning than the koran or the book of mormon.

The proof is in the prophecy.

You making points means nothing if it's not the Truth. The WHOLE Bible is God inspired. If you limit yourself, you cannot possibly know the things of God and I can't help you.

I truly believe you are a man of faith. Why not believe that GOD is ABLE give us what HE wants us to have - all His Promises, Teachings. Warnings, Blessings and He inspired it all. If you limit God and what He has done, your knowledge will be limited. Don't lean on your own understanding - the things of God are Supernatural.

We are both in different places, I can't relate to not knowing God and His Word, His Holy Spirit, My Savior nor to limiting God according to my understanding. I don't understand how He does what He does - I only KNOW that He does and experienced it first hand. Total submission to Him and Faith in His Word is what HE wants - and He is Faithful to His Word. And you can't relate to me - the barrier is you are limiting God for HE has not kept anything from you if you want it. Seek and you will find, Knock and it will be opened to you. The Jews limited God, it's in the OT. He didn't want His people in the desert 40 years. Taking them out of Egypt loaded down with material goods, saw what Egypt suffered, parts The Red Sea, gave them food and water in the desert, etc., etc. and then fear/unbelief grips them.

God is no respecter of persons - He gives freely to all who ask.

We should all be learning and growing - it never stops but ALWAYS gets better in our knowledge of Him, His Goodness, His Love, His Blessings, His Mercy.

It has to be authorized by an authority external to itself (G-d) or else it has no more meaning than the koran or the book of mormon.

God's Word is HOLY SPIRIT inspired. Limit your beliefs and you limit The Truth, Knowledge. There is NO other bible - there is ONLY ONE with the Good News! And The Author is Alive and Well!

All for His Glory.
