And he said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? (Luke 24:38 ESV)
Do you have doubts about the Bible being the real Word of God? Do you have doubts about Jesus Christ? Perhaps you believe there must be a God, but you doubt that He personally cares anything about you. James spoke rightly when he said, “He who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.” (James 1:6 ESV) The unsettled soul has many doubts which result from a lack of communion with Christ. Do you doubt? Run to Christ and with every step nearer, you will grow in confidence and overcome discouragement. Faith is strengthened by communion with Christ. Charles Spurgeon asks the question, “Where do you live? Many a believer lives in the ‘cottage of doubt,’ when he might live in the ‘mansion of faith.’” We must continually be on guard against the doubt which destroys faith. Therefore, guard your faith through regular communion (prayer and reading God’s Word) with Christ.

Samuel at Gilgal 
Yes, I do! In fact, I recently wrote about the polytheistic beliefs of the ancient Israelites and extensive revisions to the Old Testament over time.

Compared with other ancient writings, the Bible has more manuscript evidence to support it than any ten pieces of classical literature combined. Sounds like you have been reading the “higher critics” who tend to embellish and even make up their research after their scholarship has been repudiated.
