Yes 66 books written by almost as many authors from all walks of life, yet proclaiming the same message in the OT and in the NT. You say it is the words of the devil, please provide your evidence for this. Your confussed why the Bible is the word of God, it is the word of God on two counts...

Only if one knows it is a miracle and not a co-incidence.
