Inspiration for Bible books, authors and criticism

God’s inspiration makes the Bible a unique word of God, not just a book containing God’s words, so it is different from any other sacred or secular book. It is the inspiring revelation of God's saving plan and purpose on behalf of humanity in Christ, not the revelation of natural science or secular history. Inspiration refers to the influence that God exerted on the human authors of the Bible so that their words and thoughts recorded in the original Scriptures were without error (see 2 Timothy 3:16; John 10:35; 2 Peter 1:19-21).

Criticism:
God’s inspiration and revelation only cover the original works, Since God directs this process, not only can the high accuracy of the transmitted text be expected, but the text criticism also must prove this fact. The discovery of transcription errors that may have penetrated into the transmitted text is an activity that belongs to the field of low-level criticism and belongs to the legitimate work of well-known scholars.​​​

The so-called scientific differences are due to flawed scientific theories or insufficient explanations of biblical ways of thinking and a lack of cultural understanding of biblical times. So-called historical errors can be caused by factors such as incorrect textual traditions, or incorrect interpretations of historical or archaeological evidence or of the biblical text itself.

Note on the 39 Books of the Old Testament.

The content of the English Old Testament is the same as the Hebrew text. The only difference is the arrangement of materials(books). English translators follow the order of the books in the Septuagint (Greek) translated around 280-150 BC. Roman Catholics followed the translation of the Septuagint and included 11 Apocrypha books.



Notes on the 27 books of the New Testament.


The Gospels, although their creation time(written) is later than many epistles, for chronological reasons, they are completely placed before Acts and epistles. The cataloging of life on earth and the ministry of our Lord naturally precedes the book of Acts, which describes the formation and history of the early church.
 
The 21 letters include Thirteen letters were written by Paul, One (Hebrew) was written anonymously to Hebrew Christians, and the other (James) was also written to the twelve tribes in the diaspora. Two of them came from Peter, three letters are from John and one is from Jude. James, 1 and 2 Peter, 1, 2 and 3 John and Judas are called Catholic epistles.
 
Revelation, the cornerstone and pinnacle of biblical prophecy, completes the books of the New Testament.
