That's okay, it's what you'd expect from ancient times.
For the sake of discussion, suppose there is really an Almighty God, ok?
And if He is indeed Almighty God with all power, then why would you suppose that Almighty God failed to get a decent copy of His (Bible) into your hands across the ages?
Would that be too hard for almighty God?
No. And I can tell you why. The version bible that you have in your home right now is a good enough Bible to let you search out God through it and find Him...and His Holy Spirit. At some point God decides that you are being diligent enough with reading His book, that He will reveal Himself to you through His Spirit!
The Lord's (Holy) Spirit is our helper, teacher and guide. It is a little bit spooky but it is very real. If you study His word enough, and pray enough, soon you will start being changed in your heart and will begin to be able to hear His voice speaking to you, inside of you. The still small voice of the Lord.
This is real Brother. Ask me how I know, lol! It will require you to set your intellect aside to believe in how the Lord does things or else there will be no progression in development.
Intellect is ok as far as that goes, but it's not everything!
