The entire Bible is corrupted anyway
according to its Theologians!

We must know that the Bible can not be trusted. Let us look at what the Theologians and Historians of the NIV Bible wrote about the Books of Song of Songs and Proverbs:
* Please be advised that the Bibliography of the NIV Bible that I used is listed at the end of this article. I used the latest version of the NIV Bible.
About the book of Song of Songs: "Verse 1 appears to ascribe authorship to Solomon. Solomon is referred to seven times, and several verses speak of the 'king', but whether he was the author remains an open question. (From the NIV Bible Commentary, page 997)"
About the book of Proverbs: "Although the book begins with a title ascribing the proverbs to Solomon, it is clear from later chapters that he was not the only author of the book. (From the NIV Bible Commentary, page 935)"
As we clearly see, no one knows who wrote the pornful book of Song of Songs, and the book of Proverbs. How can you claim that the books were indeed all revealed by GOD Almighty? If you're not sure, and you still insist on your claim, then you are committing a crime against GOD Almighty's Revelations.

The NIV Bible Theologians and Historians also commented on other books of the Bible to be corrupted by the scribes:
"...portions of the book were probably added by scribes or editors from later periods of Israel's history... (From the NIV Bible Commentary, page 183)"
The Jewish scribes had very badly corrupted the Bible and turned it into a big lie. That is why GOD Almighty said:
"`How can you say, "We [the Jews] are wise, for we have the law of the LORD," when actually the lying pen of the scribes has handled it falsely?' (From the NIV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"
"How can you say, 'We are wise, and the law of the LORD is with us'? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes has made it into a lie. (From the RSV Bible, Jeremiah 8:8)"
In either translation above, we clearly see that the Bible has too many narrated stories and man-made cultural laws that were inserted into it that were not Divine Revelations from GOD Almighty. The following sites have tons of details that prove that( Please visit answering-Christianity. com and get the answers )
It's quite obvious that the Bible is more like a man made cultural book than a divine book that is meant to be for all times and all places. Anyway, the Bible was not even written by its original authors. That is why you see things such as "And Moses went up to the mountain...." instead of "And I [Moses] went up to the mountain....", or "And Jesus said to Matthew...." instead of "And Jesus said to me [Matthew]...." Most of the Books and Gospels of the Bible were written by third party people that were not even chosen by GOD, which makes the Bible just a cultural history book rather than a divine book from GOD Almighty. Please see Question #3 (Please visit answering-Christianity. com and get the answers ) to see why Allah Almighty allowed for the Bible of today to be corrupted.
The Bible can be changed at any time by
the Christian leaders. For example, in the early days, it was altered by
copyists and today there is a revised version. All these have led to many
contradictions resulting in inconsistent stories of the founder of the religion
and the humble writer doubts whether this can create confidence in the hearts of
its believers. We are told in Peake’s Commentary on the Bible:
“In certain cases, we have two versions of similar sayings in one and the same Gospel without being literally identical. In some very important passages, it is impossible to harmonise the versions. This is particularly true stories of the Virgin Birth and of Resurrection. As regards the Birth stories in Mathew, we find ourselves in doubt in many like points, and there is reason to believe that a reverent imagination has been at work on traditional material”
In view of the above facts, it is no longer possible to insist on the Gospel narratives and it is very difficult for one to accept the Gospels as the words of God.
For instance, the revised version throws our the main text of the last twelve verse of St. Mark which deals with the ascension of Jesus. The instances of the verses which have now been removed can be multiplied to any number. One wonders how the words of God can be removed or amended at the whim of the Church Leaders.
The New Testament on which the Modern Christian doctrines rest has undergone violent changes and every edition almost differs from the other. Some of the changes that are now taking place are so fundamental that they strike at the very root of Christianity. For example, the only two references of the ascension of Jesus that were found in the Gospel of Mark and Luke have now been removed. Before the removal of these passages the relevant verses read as follows:
“So then after the Lord had spoken to them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God” (Mark 16:19)
And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up to heaven” (Luke 24:51)
