Why is everything in the Bible true and accurate?

The more you can question an authority the less control that authority has. So if the Bible is wrong in one area, you can question or even disobey others.

The inerrancy of Scripture is a common (No. American) misinterpretation of one of the Five Fundamentals of Protestantism. See item 4. ->

Because if you don't, according to some, you will face inexpicably cruel violence. Deservedly so, apparently.

Divegeester said it was a serious honest question. Why are you slinging mud? What's your excuse?

The first thing that snapped for me was the veracity of the Book of Revelation. It just seemed bogus and manipulative. The second thing to snap was the whole Paul thing. That then just seemed bogus and manipulative too. Then I lost my belief in the Gospel of John and started to see that as bogus and manipulative as well. And that was that, really. It took sbout five years Some nice messages in the gospels. But my faith was lost.

You have called the doctrine I'm referring to as "mud".

The bible is taken to the absolute truth for Christians only. The absolute truth is from the mouth of Jesus Christ. So when the truth as Jesus spoke it, contradicts what the Bible said, then Christians have a problem and they often side with the bible.

The bible is not more authoritative than Christ.

Psalm 119:89
For ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.

Psalm 12:6,7
The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.
Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

Matthew 5:18
"Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled."

Without the veracity, inerrancy, infallibility and immutability of the Word of God it's just a crap shoot and nothing can be believed.

Anyone that claims to know that the Bible is full of errors and cannot be trusted and relied upon is making themselves a greater authority than, and above, God's Word.

Risky business that is making oneself smarter than God, as though God isn't smart enough to preserve His Word.
And if God can't preserve his word, then how can you trust that he can preserve you?

Proverb 22:12
The eyes of the LORD preserve knowledge, and he overthroweth the words of the transgressor.

Can you cite anything in the Holy Bible that is not absolutely true, morally right, totally accurate, etc.?

If the Bible was written by men under the inspiration, guidance and control of God’s Holy Spirit - and I believe it was due to accurate prophecies and scientific facts that were thousands of years ahead of man’s knowledge at the time - wouldn’t it have to be the criteria you listed?
