If The Bible is inspired - then that's how it is. We believe it is inspired - none of the authors have said that they were inspired - that came later, and from other people.

If the Bible is not inspired, we wouldn't know.

So, nothing would be different.... with the actual book itself

What "might" be different is how people regard the book. As it is, many people don't believe the bible to be inspired - and some of them disregard the book, others of them just look on it as a book containing incredible wisdom and life-advice.

Is The Bible inspired?

The dictionary definition says that a work can be considered inspired if it was prompted by or emanated from a supernatural source. An inherent assumption in this is that the supernatural source would have ensured that the work, in this case the Bible, was historically accurate, lacking in errors and inconsistencies, but containing prophecies or other material that could only have come from a supernatural source. We can most easily tell that the Bible is not inspired because of the errors and inconsistencies in the text. We can also tell that the Bible was not inspired by comparing the authorship and date when each book was really written, with the author and dates supposed by tradition. Some archaeologists now dispute much of the supposed history of the early Hebrews, evidence once again that the Bible was not inspired. The Bible contains a number of supposed prophecies, but these seem to have come true soon after they were announced. For example, Isaiah 7:14 prophesied that a young woman would have a son; this prophecy came true in verse 8:3 - unarguably before Isaiah wrote his book. The Book of Daniel contains many supposed prophecies, but it can be shown conclusively that the book was written in the second century BCE, after the 'prophecies' had come true. There is no evidence that the Bible is inspired, so the conclusion is that it is not. Christians believe that the Bible is indeed inspired by God.

Who inspired The Bible?

The entire Bible is inspired by Jehovah God Himself. (2 Timothy 3:16) While it's true that men physically penned the scriptures, but they were told what to write by means of Jehovah's spirit. (2 Peter 1:20-21) This would explain how they were able to document accurate prophecies, such as how events would be during "the last days" a.k.a. our times (Matthew 24:7-14), even down to the attitudes commonly found. (2 Timothy 3:1-5) (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)

Why is Important that the Bible is the inspired Word of God?

Because Jehovah God is responsible for it, we can depend on everything it says. How so? First of all, Jehovah can't lie (Titus 1:2), so everything He says in scripture is the truth. Second, everything He does is perfect (Deuteronomy 32:4), which would include the way He structured the Bible and what was put into it. Third, all of the principles and commands within it are for our benefit. (Isaiah 48:17-18; Psalm 1:3) If the Bible was created by men and not Jehovah, the dependability that it has would no longer be there. (New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures)
