Why would God write a book of lies and why would you worship such a being?

I always consider this question a rather strange thing for a Christian to ask. I could understand the question if asked from a Jewish perspective, but I don't find it a logical question from a born again Christian. I would expect that one Christian would completely understand how another Christian came to accept Christ. And very little of that experience has anything to do with Adam, Noah, Moses, David, or Sampson's escapades.The stories in the Bible are conveyed as legitimate because the people writing the stories believed them to be true. However the further back into history the stories are set, the more disconnected are the events from the authors.And how many of those events are essentially to Christianity anyway?

Genesis and Matthew are not the same book. They don't have the same author, were not written at the same time, and contain descriptions of events that are purported to have happened at least thousands of years apart.I don't need to believe that snakes ever talked to women believe that Christ died on the cross to save mankind. I don't need to believe Adam ever existed to understand the example Christ set for life. Perhaps you need that link, but I don't.
