Hi Steve, thank you for your comment and invitation, I will take a look at your blog!
We both agree that if Holy Spirit wishes to give to humanity an inerrant Bible without any fuzziness He can certainly do so.
As Christians we would then be invited just to memorize the Book written in Heaven and given to the humanity through the only true Prophet.
We can see the consequences of such a faith and religion.
Instead of a scientifically solid revelation about earthly and heavenly things, past, present and future, Holy Ghost has inspired a collection of books during more than one thousand years of the Jewish history, a collection that is full of contradictions, errors and some very fuzzy paragraphs, indeed.
For so He has seen it good for the most wondrous gift to humanity, the only begotten Son of God of Israel.
We do not believe in Bible as the heart of our religion.
We believe in Jesus Christ, the promised Messiah of Israel, who is the Word of God that came down to earth from heaven and who is attested already in the first verses of Genesis, as God said things, saying words.
I understand that this understanding of the Bible as witness of the "coming of the Word of God" is not to your liking.
But it stands the most rigorous acid test of truth.
Faith that is life together with the Word of God in Holy Spirit as children of God the Father is a miracle that nobody can take to himself or herself, it is something that is given from above.
