Proof of claim?
Hm. Many Christians say the Bible is the word of God. The Bible says the word of God is true:
Psalm 119:160
Thy WORD IS TRUE from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.
However, since the Bible wasn't assembled until after all the scriptures were written, there is no verse claming the Bible as a whole is the word of God. There are verses that say revealed scriptures are true, but they can't be reasonably expanded to include the whole Bible.
I'm going to have to come down on the side that the Bible doesn't say it's true.
