I used to think in a similar way to you. Then I went on a spiritual journey and my eyes and heart gradually opened. I had a Baptism of the Holy Spirit without even asking for it. I didn't even consider myself as having any faith or belonging to any religion. In fact, I was averse to all religion and didn't believe in a God. I had just about become open to having a Creator the day my life changed forever.

Only the Bible has accurately described the exact thing that happened to me and revealed the same Truths opened to me by the Holy Spirit in the ensuing time.

The Book of Acts is real.. but not everyone will see it immediately. I was anti-christianity so I didn't see anything until I was ready to be touched by God. The books in the Bible are written both as an account and as future prophecy, yet to be fulfilled even for us. A time will come when you might play a part in it.

Here's one clue regarding why there are differences with regard to the future prophecy: the differences reveal the things that will happen to different people at particular times. In addition, things we think of as an account might not only be an account.

Anyone who seeks God diligently will find Him and God will answer us directly if we have any questions and don't understand anything.

ps: I would recommend using the KJV or Greek Translation of the New Testament.

Good luck and peace be with you.
