The best way to show the Bible's trustworthiness is to compare Scripture with Scripture. Anything that seems to be unclear must be interpreted using what is crystal clear.

The Old Testament presents a very "human" picture of its principle characters -- all flawed to some extent or the other. This is evidence that it was not doctored in the past. It consistently shows the fallen state of mankind in the light of the character of God. The rather detailed requirements in the Law come to be clearer once Jesus is shown to be the fulfillment of that Law.

I don't know what evidence this guy might have to support his theory. The notion that Satan would want us to believe that Jesus is God in the flesh seems rather bizzare. What advantage could this give the deceiver? Whether the writers added the idea of Jesus being God is easier to explain than thinking that Satan had anything to do with it.
