What do the other books say about Jesus? I remember hearing he is mentioned in most if not all of them but they look at him in different ways. Anyone research this?

Here is my issue. Is it the word of G*d? Isn't it 'mans' interpretation? Did Jesus write in the book? To me G*d is much much larger than a book. A Creator. His writings can be seen in all living things.
My lack of trust comes from mans interference. I can't even figure out if the Sabbath is on Saturday or Sunday.
So if not G*d then who/why the book(s) has made me search into rabbit holes. CERN, Looking Glass, Barron Trumps Adventure, Mandela, etc. Was it sent back to save humanity. Hurt? Why multiple books/religions?
Just questioning this stuff makes me feel like a bad person. But honestly the more I am questioning this the closer my soul is feeling to G*d. Keeping an open mind and I am going to be exploring the bible more with all your help.

The Bible is far and away the most extraordinary book on this earth. Eminently defensible from all sorts of perspectives and disciplines. History, archaeology, science, poetic beauty, moral teaching, wisdom, geology; it's prophetic (future proves past?) accomplishments alone set it apart from any other religious or spiritual text.
But God will work with and answer the questions of any sincere seeker of Truth. It was His Holy Spirit that *inspired* each of the 40+ separate authors in their writings and what makes those books written over a span of 1500 years hang together so well as one overall narrative.

My answer to the $60G question about it's trustability *today* as 'the Word of God' is that if God went to the trouble to bring it into existence, watched over it those 1500 years, He *surely* COULD (He's God afterall right?), and logically WOULD watch over it to protect it from ANY undue changes that even Satan himself might attempt to make on it and REGARDLESS of whatEVER changes God allowed to be made He's well able to cause them to still serve his purpose .... "End of discussion" ... God is GOD afterall.
