Is the Bible a supernatural book?

Is the Bible, especially the New Testament a supernatural book? Has it radically changed the lives of many men and women?

 

[Faithfulservant]

It's definitely changed my life. No matter how many times I read it I get something new and fresh that refuels me. Some people might think this is weird but many times I just open the bible and my eyes fall on something that I need in a particular time in my life. The perfect Word

While it's content deals in that which many would consider "supernatural," the book itself is made of paper, which is derived from trees, which are quite natural.

Has it radically changed the lives of many men and women?

Yes.

Ok, let's move directions a little, do you believe that there is any book that can compare to the Bible?

By adherents it goes Bible, Quran, Gita eh?

Of course the Bible had Paul...and then missionaries, and conquerors forcing natives in lands around the world to convert or else.

Time will tell in regards to the answer to your questions.

Also the Bible is a compilation of 66 books not a book.

No and yes, I know many who have become Christian(including a family member).

What are the criteria that should be used to compare?

Yes, that is the amazing part. written over 1500 years and it all flows.

Whatever you like. Any other piece of work written in like time which supports every piece.

Your version of what you see is fun to watch. Predictable apologists are an interesting breed.

Have you read the Mahābhārata, specifically the Bhagavad Gita?

It's simply a story, by one person.

So you're looking for something written by multiple authors? How about the Upanishads, then?

Possibly the Hindu Vedas as the teaching is they were divinely inspired and contain prophecy. I used to know a bit more about them but it's been awhile since I've read up on it.
The Zoroastrian Avesta (Zend Avesta) and the Sikh Adi Granth are said to be inspired. However I believe in both cases came via a single author and would thus be compared more easily to the Koran.
Mayan writings were I believe said to be inspired and contained prophecy. However, most of them were destroyed by missionaries who wanted to stamp out their ideas.

Ok, I guess I did not make myself clear and I am not even sure I can about what I was asking for. 66 books, written over 1500 years in 3 different languages, with some 25 writers. And it flows from beginning to end. Just about every book is validated by some other book written life times apart. Oh well, just forget it. Silly me.

Somebody who knew more about the Vedas could say more and make a better comparison. I don't know enough detail to see how they compare.
They were written over some period of time. I'm not sure about the number of writers or the number of languages. Sorry.

I did a little research, not in-depth. I don't think they would compare, Hindu's worship many different gods.
