Is it possible that if an early civilization had wanted, they could have followed a sort of writing process to formulate a unified narrative for the whole Bible, including all its doctrines, prophecies, wisdom, exhortations, etc, and then reorganized it into anthology of books called the Bible, after which translators could have given it that sound which many of us believe is the voice of God? This defies, as far as I know, historical records of the origins of the Bible's individual books. But how do we know for sure that history wasn't rewritten, and that the Bible wasn't concocted in the manner whereof I spoke? What internal proof is there in scripture, that manifests its origin as being that of God? Do I want to believe the Bible is false? No. But fascinated with writing, rhetoric, and literature, I have thought about all these things, giving me ideas concerning its origins, which are seemingly plausible contrary to history, whereof now I ask for a refutation, and also a proof of the divine origin of the Bible contained in itself, if in the Bible there exists this manner of evidence.
Thank you. I hope this will be a good discussion, and not a discussion leading to strife.
