What is faith?
My question is, why do people call the Bible the Word of God when it is clearly a name given to Jesus? If you read the Bible believing that the Bible is the Word of God it gives you a very different message from reading it with the understanding that Jesus being the Word of God.
Please distinguish the terms "vow", "oath", "swear" and "pledge." Some of these are interchangeable and some are referred to in the bible as totally different from each other. I'm specifically interested in what Jesus meant in Matthew 5:33-37 and how that applies to nowadays "pledging" for a building fund or other church projects.
I wanted to ask you a question about the testaments. Is the
Old testament in particular the sacrifice of the animals, and the new testament is the shed blood of Jesus for forgiveness? Am I correct?
I am searching for lessons on the synoptic gospels. I hope to answer the following questions:

 
1.  Why are three so similar and John is not?
2.  What specific stories are told in Matthew, Luke and Mark and how are they similar and how are they different?
3.  Why are Matthew, Mark and Luke referred to as the synoptic gospels?
 
Can you provide some resources to answer my questions?
