Has the bible been changed and corrupted OR The original bible still exist?

Question

God has sent numerous Prophets and Messengers like Adam, Noah, Abraham,Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob,Moses ,Jesus, Muhammad peace be upon them and reveal his messages as books on them to guide people and to help them live their lives in the best way possible. When the Christian religion started up, they had book which was genuine and contain the original message , but with passage of time people made changes in it for their own benefits and interests and they have destroyed it. Everything was destroyed at the council of Nicaea. After that, nothing survived except certain books and some of those the church took out and put back in over the next thousand years. The book of Revelations is one of those books they took out and put back in, and took it out and took it back in. There are other books, when the Protestants broke off from the Catholic Church, that they threw out. Then there are more books that the orthodox have. Protestants have 66 books, Catholic 73 books, and Orthodox 78 books. Tell me which one is right? And then when you look at the verses, they don’t match. So that's why God sent his last messenger Muhammad (PBUH) and reveal the book Quran to covey the message to the people.
The central message that was carried by all Prophets and Messengers was that of monothiesm. Each Prophet called his people to believe in God and not to ascribe partners to God. To believe that God created the universe and everything within it, and to direct all forms of worship to God alone.

Answer 1

well the bible has been changed numerous times and it's not the bible it's with a plural bible's there is more then 1 and hundreds of versions the book is altered by man. even priests and bishops and popes know this and change it and they don't even tell u about it! and it's the most sold book in the world. there are over 50k errors in the bible it has many contradictions and errors and i can go on and on goes against science says the earth is flat etc. the quran has zero contradictions, people need to learn the difference between a contradiction and a contradistinction has not been changed or altered by man for over 1400+ and science agree's with the quran already 70% of the quran is stated or backed up by science to be fact and the other 30% is ambiguous only time can tell! islam is the perfect religion but Muslims are not.

Answer 2

Unlike the koran, which is revered as much as allah, the Bible is not intended to be worshipped. The original manuscripts have been lost. The copies we have are excellent in that we can destroy them and all known Bibles. We can then reconstruct the NT just from the writings of the church fathers.



Can the koran be reconstructed if all copies are destroyed? Because the NT was written in Greek, we know that the words that were chosen were exactly what the writer meant to use. There is no punctuation and no paragraphs. That was done by editors in the future to make reading easier.



The Bible of today is comparable in every way except when new information is found concerning words and phrases. None of the word phrases common to Freek can ever be translated exactly, however the meaning of the phrase can be made clear

Answer 3

The books of the Old Testament were written from approximately 1400 B.C. to 400 B.C. The books of the New Testament were written from approximately A.D. 40 to A.D. 90. So, anywhere between 3400 to 1900 years have passed since a book of the Bible was written. In this time, the original manuscripts have been lost. They very likely no longer exist. Also during this time, the books of the Bible have been copied again and again. Copies of copies of copies have been made. In view of this, can we still trust the Bible?



When God originally inspired men to write His Word, it was God-breathed and inerrant (2 Timothy 3:16-17; John 17:17). The Bible nowhere applies this to copies of the original manuscripts. As meticulous as scribes were with the replication of the Scriptures, no one is perfect. As a result, minor differences arose in the various copies of the Scriptures. Of all of the thousands of Greek and Hebrew manuscripts that are in existence, no two were identical until the printing press was invented in the A.D. 1500s.



However, any unbiased document scholar will agree that the Bible has been remarkably well-preserved over the centuries. Copies of the Bible dating to the 14th century A.D. are nearly identical in content to copies from the 3rd century A.D. When the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered, scholars were shocked to see how similar they were to other ancient copies of the Old Testament, even though the Dead Sea Scrolls were hundreds of years older than anything previously discovered. Even many hardened skeptics and critics of the Bible admit that the Bible has been transmitted over the centuries far more accurately than any other ancient document.



There is absolutely no evidence that the Bible has been revised, edited, or tampered with in any systematic manner. The sheer volume of biblical manuscripts makes it simple to recognize any attempts to distort God’s Word. There is no major doctrine of the Bible that is put in doubt as a result of the minor differences that exist between manuscripts.



Again, the question, can we trust the Bible? Absolutely! God has preserved His Word despite the unintentional failings and intentional attacks of human beings. We can have utmost confidence that the Bible we have today is the same Bible that was originally written. The Bible is God’s Word, and we can trust it (2 Timothy 3:16; Matthew 5:18).

Answer 4

There are three or four stages that scripture we have went through.



The first is events actually happened or legends and origin stories arose and became popular across cultures.



The second is stories were told and elaborated, bringing them up to date or combining with the stories of other tribes or locations.



The third is the writing down of sayings, lists of events, genealogies, combinations of multiple versions.



The last is editing, redacting and elaborating to get to the form we have today.
