How Can Christians Still Believe??

1. The Bible IS the Word of God.
2. The Bible IS NOT the Word of God.

Pick one. There is no "sorta-kinda" option.

Why not?

I believe that God inspired the prophets and other writers, but they weren't forced. Relationship with God is based on free will. God shows himself to people, while they experience that revelation on different ways. That's what the Bible is: a book that shows how different people on different ways saw God, in time completely different than ours.

That's why i said that the Bible is divine and human at the same time.
