If it's not true then why should I believe God is real? Why would you believe the OT over The NT.""
That's not an answer! C'mon GC, I KNOW you can do better than that. You obviously believe in the bible. What made you decide to believe that what it says is true? What's the process that led you to the conclusion that it's report of God is accurate?
GOD's revelation to me as I study, I thought this was apparent.
I'm no stranger to divine revelation but I'm curious to know how it works for you. Do you feel, as you read, that God tells you that what you are reading is true? Or did you he have a specific revelation that the book was reliable?
No need to shout Btw. We're just talking.

Do you guys believe that either the NT or the OT are somehow more accurate word of God than the other? If so, then why?
Yes, because the NT is more (though by no means entirely) internally consistent. Its also less bizarre.
