Do Holy Books Really come from God????

if you really like a book, you can think it is inspired by god. even a book simple as a literary classic can inspire you.

We might know instinctively right from wrong, but there is another force that is working hard to convince us that what we know as truly can't possibly be the truth. Do you remember how the serpent deceived Eve? God inspired men to put His will in writing so we'd know the truth and so we could not claim ignorance of the law. So, how does one know which holy scripture is the inspired word of God? Which one can back up its claims with proven evidence?

Hi, In the initial section your idea about what God should be done about Holy Book is great But it not the way of God. God created all the universes, water, air, plants, human beings, animals etc. God gave humans with an option to choose what they want or do what they want. Also God revealed what is the aim of mankind he created, what they are supposed to do, and what will happen to them after their life in earth. The inner lusts of humans and the Satan provoke humans to do things that goes against the advice of our creator, But God explain what is to be done, who ever follow it clearly won't go against the advices of God. God created humans and choose some people among the humans who are truthful and assigned as Prophets to receive the message from God and to guide the people by showing the practical way. God has assigned prophets in all nations, and God revealed some special messages to them the collection of their message is known as Holy Books. There was about 124000 prophets assigned by God. Quran mentions 4 holy books by name and 25 prophets by name. HOLY SCRIPTURE NAME(Biblical name) TO PROPHET(Biblical name) --------------------------------------------- Zabur (Psalms) - Dawud (David) Taurat (Torah) - Musa (Moses) Injeel (Gospel) - Iesa (Jesus) Quran - Mohammad. (Comforter/Spirit of truth) Each of those revelations were meant for the people of that time and it gave a news of a coming prophet next to them and to follow in that prophet when they come, each prophet had miracles to show that they are the prophet of God, Miracles are shown through the prophets but did by God. Prophet Mohammad was the last prophet through him revealed the Last edition of the revelations from God. Holy book was not a book dropped from the sky. The angel 'Gabriel'/Gibreel known as 'spirit' conveys the message from God to prophets as revelations in different times depending on their development and situation. Details of those revelations also will be conveyed, The prophet then will teach it to his people and will be practically implemented. Those exact words from God were conveyed as it is and Those messages together is Called Holy Scriptures. Peace.

Actually, in Christianity, Jesus is the Word of God. The Bible is only inspired by God.

No, I think Gods come from holy books. Gods have no other significance.

Why do you think he must guaranty everyone on Earth a copy? Second, what kind of God wouldn't tell us anything, yet expect us to figure it out on our own? Third, what does he do about people who figure things out like killing infidels is good? Fourth, if a God who doesn't care enough to tell us his plan, really a good God?

All religions are man made…they have laws and dictums and guidelines to make the world a better place and God is just a concept to keep us on the straight path and benefit society. And just because all religion and religious books are written by man, you will invariably find all of them referring to women as subservient to men LOL…even God, who is formless and omnipresent, is referred in all religions as HE. Many religions have female Gods too, but the male God is always dominant.

I know the Bible is the only holy book in the world. Many believes in it. I am for one believes in it.

Books are not all necessary to find God. If at all some of them can be very great impediments in the path to God.God is equally accessible to All. He is One. He is indescribable in any language. The idea of saying that some Book is from God is to instill a sense of awe in the followers,so as to enable (or condition) them to make a beginning to move closer to God, instead of following the Natural tendency of moving away from Him. Holy Books are all an excellent Strategy to put people on the Path to God.Nothing More. Nothing Less.

Bhagavad Geeta are words of Lord Krishna. Arjuna asks questions and the Lord provides answers. You would find it simple, interesting and different from other books. Bhagavad Geeta[/i] can be read by people of any religion. Once you understand you won't have any doubts.

The Holy Bible is the anointed book given to men by God Himself. It is written by anointed/inspired people of God in the old and new testaments times. It has been proven many, many times that every words in the Holy Bible are correct and trustworthy. It does not even became obsolete, all are up-to-date in worldly events. God commanded the disciples to go into world and baptize them in the Name of the Holy Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach them the things I taught you in Mathew 28. We should obey what the Words of God tell us to do and not what we want to do.

hai bird, throughout the centuries the holy book or should I say the word of God had never been without the earthly intervention. personally, Holy books should never bound by time and will never be obsolete. I'm not a religious person nor a non believer, still if IT what it takes to keep the moral value in check, guess it shouldn't be any issue in the first place.

the holy book is real bible, Quran

Nature is God's Holy Book; no man needs write it for Him.

I understand the point that you make about experiencing life and that it in itself is the teacher, through the choices we make and their repercussions. That being said.. I disagree with your stance on holy books. This isn't because I believe they were directly created by any deity. The only thing I know a deity actually created were the runes and the ten commandments. as for holy books.. those are written by the hand of man as a way to understand our universe. Most are allegorical stories handed down to teach, to inspire, and to help make those tough life decisions. Those books are divinely inspired by divinity, and as such pass the test of time. As to whether god, any deity really, would have to give every single person a copy.. I also disagree with that. Books can be shared. It's not the books themselves or even the words in them that matter, though. It is the lessons they impart and the wisdom therein that is divine. All religions are connected in some capacity, and so too are their holy books and workings.

I think I can write better stuff than these holy books. I dont understand why god has to threaten human beings. he seems to act like a goon in a redlight area. also it looks very stupid all his creations question his wisdom and he acts like a stupid when gets down to destroy those who question him. is that the way the wisest of all behave. i can say with certainty that these books were written by evil minded people over a period of time.

we should get rid of the concept of god and love instead. but this won't happen. god is what we are. what we do. we can't get it out of us. it is also what makes us crazy. i don't believe in god. i also don't see the relevance in giving your life to him. oh i think that karma or whatever you talk of is dumb it's not real. and i only said it because i was pressured to say it. pressured by institution of religion, and just concepts of humanity. i am here, being a human. god is in the sky, in stories, he's a man that will blow your head off and then make you paranoid of the devil. i dont' understand. if i think about it i think that i will see god in my room reprimanding me. it requires you to be honest huh? well that's not right. that's wrong. a blind requirment of immoral fascination stagnates and pierces. i thought we were love things. a loose term. but obviously there's hatred. and i wonder why? oh keep your eye on god. but i don't believe this. it is brain washing. supposedly you won't find peace unless you conform and become this weird teller of all that sees an eye and big brother. but this is a paranoids stand point.! your supposed to say big brother because you'll get used to the term and therefor not be a part from it! because pain is the absence of the whole, i guess. and names are names. stupid.

As a practicing Catholic, I must say that it really came from God. God may not be the one who wrote it but he assigned certain people to spread the word and that is through the bible

God only holds us accountable for that which we know and do. If we know there is a "holy book" available to us then acquiring that knowledge is what we are accountable to do. Writing is one of the greatest gifts we have. Think where we would be without the collected wisdom of the great minds throughout the ages. Life would be like a giant game of "telephone" where everything gets confused. Books are invaluable to us as a society - especially holy books. My own journal is some what of a "holy book" to me. I record all of my experiences - spiritual and otherwise. I have been surprised how quickly I forget or how I often I repeat the same mistakes only to find that they were documented for me to learn from already. The "holy books" you speak of are kind of like the journals of the prophets. God spoke to them and they wrote it down - thus showing God that they valued the informaton - and allowing all of us to learn from His words and avoid learning everything from the school of hard knocks. It is amazing to me how similar many of the "holy books" are in their teachings. I am thinking specifically of the Old Testament, New Testament, Zohar, Book of Mormon, and Koran. Though used by various religions, they do not contradict as much as one might expect. In fact, I've found they build upon and strengthen each other. It is easy to say there are no rules. Yet, there they are in black & white. A loving parent gives his children boundaries because He loves us.

As per view, till date, such forum will always end with "IT IS NOT DEBATABLE". Whatever is the holy book it is written on events & happenings at the time and it is formulated according to the time & needs and passed on among the public in a cooked manner. Every one should accept without ignoring, there is some power which operates the entire world.
