And truly hope it helps you settle this matter.

You would clearly see the Bible is very reliable.
If you havent looked at that yet, because you were referred here, go check that out after you read the rest of the page, to keep this in mind as you investigate it. 😊
But dont wait until you have gone through all of it, as it could take 2 weeks to do so, and you might die tomorrow. So seek "reasonable evidence" and when you find it... obey the Gospel, and go from there. The rest of this material will simply solidify your faith. 🙂
Briefly Examining Jesus and the NT:
Just a simple look at the NT shows it is verifiable and true history. So,
We can trust the entire Bible.
Jesus quoted from every book of the 39 of OT books (except Esther), and the Apostles quoted from the OT constantly too. Around 2,000+ times the NT references the OT.
So if Jesus quoted that much of it in his lifetime, and the Apostles did too, HE affirmed it - the OT is very reliable. That means both are reliable; the 66 books are Scripture; are the Word of God.
Jesus is the eternal God. Jesus is The Word. God wrote the Bible. God is easily capable of preserving His Word thru time. Recall that Jesus grew up in the Temple, taught there since young, and the OT Scriptures were in usage and revered as God's Word. Even in what we see him teaching and talking about in the Gospels, and while in the Temple he spoke of the OT Scriptures. There was "not one time" he declared any of those 39 books were not Scripture. He affirmed them. If anything was wrong with the OT books, Jesus wouldve said so, and dealt with it well before he went to the cross.
The Bible is reliable.
Jesus and Apostles constantly pointed people to "search & see the evidence."
Jesus said Believe based on the evidence. It isnt blind faith. It is reasonable faith because of reasonable evidence
"But if I do his work, believe "in the evidence" ... Then you will know and understand ...” John 10:38
In John 5 Jesus said, Can't you believe my words?... can't you search the Scripture? For they are those which speak of me.

I hope this has really helped you and blesses you on your journey to get to the truth of the matter.
You can have a weak belief but still believe, and just grow stronger in your faith.
Mark 9:23-24:
Jesus said to him, “you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
Immediately the father of the child cried out and said with tears, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!"
So when you see reasonable evidence, obey the Gospel and grow from there. 😊
