Unless you meant to do this, in which case I don't know why you felt the need to separate them in the first place.
1. God wants everyone to believe and to be saved (says so right in the handbook).
2. The way to learned how to be saved is a deep and assiduous study of the Bible.
3. If 1 & 2 are true (ask any Christian, they'll tell you), then God would make sure that the Bible is accurate.
4. Given 3, all translations of the Bible should read exactly the same to all believers and potential believers. In other words, there should be absolutely no reasonable confusion over what ANY of the passages in the Bible say or mean.
C. Since 4 is clearly not true, the Bible is no more or less to be sanctified and believed than the mythos of any other religion.
