Timothy did not write any books of the Bible. The Bible Books 1 Timothy and 2 Timothy were letters written TO HIM from the Apostle Paul.
The Bible - suggest reading it from Genesis to Revelation (see 2 Timothy 3:16-17).
The Bible is the Word of God. 2 Timothy 3:16 (NKJV) 16All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness
There is no reference in the Bible of who Timothy's father was but it states that his grandmother is Lois and his mother is Eunice. 2 Timothy 1
Original answer: "2 Timothy 3:16 says the Bible was inspired by God which reveals it was written under His direction."Improved:What 2 Timothy says in 3:16 reveals only that its author believed that the scriptures were "God-breathed" or came from God. What the original answer reveals is that the author of the answer takes Timothy literally. The Bible never requires its readers to read it literally and probably wouldn't know what was meant if asked if he meant it literally.To read a more extensive explanation of why citing Timothy is of little value, go to answers.com at: Is_%5C%27bible%5C%27_in_the_BibleIt is in red on the right hand side.

It doesn't. In fact, the Bible doesn't even say how many there were.(Matthew 2:1-16)
They were each inspired by God (see 2 Timothy 3:16-17) and usually had a scribe write down their words.
Here are a few verses I found that mention grandparents: Proverbs 17:6, Proverbs 16:31, 2 Timothy 1:5
God's Word, the Bible, was written by forty different people over a series of thousands of years. God inspired every word that is in the Bible (2 Timothy 3:16) and man wrote it down accordingly.
Everyone in the Bible talked about the truth, because the all of the Bible is inspired by God. "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness." (2 Timothy 3:16)
