If I told my secretary to take a letter. I speak the words she writes them down. Who was the author?
The Word is Inspired & Presevered by God
God is the Author of His Holy Bible.
 
Now the supposed transcription by scribes as JoE recieved words that magically appeared in a hat is NO PROBLEM for you? You do not think this is occultic? how do we know the source was God? (Hint it is full of error, it had to be changed mant times over) Using your reasoning, JoE was just the middle man the real author was Oliver!
 
"I will now give you a description of the manner in which The Book of Mormon was translated. Joseph Smith would put the seer stone into a hat, and put his face in the hat, drawing it closely around his face to exclude the light; and in the darkness the spiritual light would shine. A piece of something resembling parchment would appear, and on that appeared the writing. One character at a time would appear, and under it was the interpretation in English."  

"Brother Joseph would read off the English to Oliver Cowdery, who was his principal scribe, and when it was written down and repeated to Brother Joseph to see if it was correct, then it would disappear, and another character with the interpretation would appear. Thus The Book of Mormon was translated by the gift and power of God, and not by any power of man" (David Whitmer, An Address to all Believers in Christ, 1976, p. 12.).

God was the AUTHOR, the delivery was thru HOLY MEN of God.
DAVEH:  Annnnnnnnnnd.....I'll try it again......reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeally slooooooooooow.......whoooooo doooooooo youuuuuuu thinnnnnnnnk waaaaaaaaas theeeeeeee HOOOOOOOLY MAAAAAAAAN oooooof God that actually penned Hebrews?   If you don't want to tell me your thoughts, Kevin.....just say so and I will refrain from asking again.  If you are embarrassed to say you don't know.....try me.  If I ridicule your admission, rebuke me.   Your reluctance to specifically address my question has me quite curious, Kevin.  I wonder why you play with me as a cat plays with a mouse before chomping on it.  Do you regard me as being too inferior (due to my LDS beliefs) to carry on a respectful conversation with me?  Have I done something to hurt or offend you?  Why do you choose to play a game instead of chatting with a hint of meaningful communications being the point of such exchanges?

DAVEH:  Then who do you think penned Hebrews, Kevin?  Is it my imagination, or are you trying to avoid answering?  If so.....why???  Is it not a reasonable question to ask?
God did not use a pervert to deliver His word.
 
I believe Judy answered this also

There is no defense of a book (BoM) that has been changed countless times.
The book has been tampered with, it has been cooked.
There are no extant copies of the source documents. No BoM sites, NO BoM peoples names recorded in any history, places or documents secular or otherwise.
It was the invention of a 19th century farm boy and his Spirit Guide Nephi later changed to Moroni.
 
God wrote the book he used Holy Men not a pervert like JoE.
God gave it - God preserved it.

Ps 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.

According to YOU, God lost his church, God lost his word. Your god is a promiscious pipsqueak

DAVEH:  I respectfully disagree with your conclusion, Kevin.  God predicted a general apostasy.  He also gave warning to men who would add and subtract from his Word.  And.....he provided a means by which those situations were corrected, by continued revelation and the restoration of his gospel principles and doctrines. 

    BTW Kevin.....why did you not answer my question?  You often times go to great lengths to answer questions that have not been asked.  You must have overlooked the one I did ask below.  So.....I'd appreciate knowing who you think authored Hebrews.....please?

    What I do find curious though is why you feel the Bible is inerrant, when you apparently aren't even sure who penned parts of it.  Who do you think wrote Hebrews, Kevin?  DavidM thought you might possibly think Paul did so, but I would like to hear your thoughts about what you believe regarding the author of Hebrews.....???
