Jews do not accept any of the Christian testaments as valid. The Jewish Bible is called the Tanach and is what the Christian Old Testament was based on. However, the Christian OT was altered to support the teachings of Christianity which is why Jews do not accept its validity.

Believe in god but not the Bible?

Is it possible? According to the Bible ~ it is possible to believe in God and not the Bible. The Bible was written by human men, who some Christians believe was written by the guidance of the Holy Spirit. However, in the case of the Jewish Faith. Although many of the portions of the Old Testament of the Holy Bible is also believed within the Jewish Faith. The New Testament is not part of the Jewish Faith. Some Jews do believe that Jesus Christ was a Prophet, but will never, acknowledge Him as the true Son of God. So, how do Jews get into Heaven if they don't believe in the Holy Bible or convert to Christianity? Simple. Long before Jesus Christ ever came to this world ~ the Jewish Nation was and will always be "God's Chosen People." The Bible is basically a guide book to doing the right things in life. Also, no where in the Bible does it say, "You must believe in the Bible, and every line it states." The belief in God is what gets you into Heaven, and that's also stated in various places of both the Old Testament and New Testament of the Bible.
