Is the Qur’an confirming a Book which has been ALTERED AND EDITED!?

Last night after our Bible study I went in deep discussion with a Christian friend. I was trying to show him evidence that the Qur’an and the Bible are from same God.

After long discussion we came to a point that I had to use many verses from Qur’an which clearly states that the Qur’an is confirming the Bible. Like 2:41, 2:91, 2:101, 3:3 etc.

My goal was to show him that if something written in the Bible and it’s not clear or not mentioned in the Qur’an then simply we have to follow the Bible because the Qur’an states that it is confirming the Bible. If the Qur’an declares that it’s confirming the Bible it means that the Qur’an confirming whatsoever written in the Bible. And here my friend came with a big question that I never thought about. He said – which Bible that the Qur’an is confirming?

I came home, type something on Google about the Bible and click search. I find the following on some site:

“After the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, with increasing persecution from the Romans and competition from the emerging Christian church, Jewish leaders met and declared its official canon of Scripture, eliminating seven books of the Septuagint.

The books were removed Tobit, Judith, 1 Maccabees, 2 Maccabees, Wisdom (of Solomon), Ecclesiasticus and Baruch. Parts of existing books were also removed including Psalm 151 (from Psalms), parts of the book of Esther, Susanna (from Daniel as chapter 13), and Bel and the Dragon (from Daniel as chapter 14).

The Christian church filled with the Holy Spirit does not follow suit but kept all the books of the Septuagint. 46 + 27 = 73 Total Books.

1500 years later, Protestants decided to keep the Catholic New Testament but change its Old Testament from the Catholic canon to the Jewish canon.

The books that were removed supported such things as

• prayers for the dead (Tobit 12:12; 2 Maccabees 12:39-45)

• Purgatory (Wisdom 3:1-7)

• The intercession of the saints in heaven (2 Maccabees 15:14)

• Intercession of angels (Tobit 12:12-15)

The books they dropped are sometimes called the Apocrypha.”

Some people add and some others remove books from to the Bible. Some books were in the Bible for 1500 years and now its out! And even now there are few books in the Catholic Church’s Bible which is not in the Protestants. I wonder now which of those Bibles that the Qur’an is confirming! And the question is: ‘Is the Qur’an inspired by God’ when it confirms books keep changing. If the Qur’an from God then how come  God confirm a book some people keep adding and removing parts from it?

Almost every Christian believes that the Qur’an is not inspired by God. Certainly God would never confirm a book which is people keep adding and removing from it; but the Qur’an is CONFIRMING the Bible. Do you think the Christians are right when they claim that the Qur’an is not inspired by God and do you believe that the Christians will use this “the Qur’an confirming corrupted Bible” idea as evidence to prove that the Qur’an is not inspired by God? 

Which Bible that the Qur’an is confirming?
