(2 Timothy 3:16-17) ". . .All Scripture is inspired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be fully competent, completely equipped for every good work."
That does not mean that when it quotes accounts by liars, such as Satan, Jezebel, the Pharisees, and other misrepresentatives, that it agrees with them, but it records tha actual truths of the situations involved!
The King James Bible is all truth.
Answer

Answer:
Yes, the Bible contains all the Truth.
Answer
Perhaps an unarguable truth is found in Ecclesiastes 9:5: 'For the living know that they shall die; but the dead know not anything, neither have they any more a reward; for the memory of them is forgotten'. If the Bible is literally true and Ecclesiastes is a legitimate book of the Bible, this should be a troubling statement for believers.
Answer
Most certainly the Bible contains all truth that it is necessary to know, as well as encouraging further seeking after truth.
Of course, if the Bible is read out of context it can even be taken to prove the Atheists view that 'there is no God' - if the first part of Psalm 14:1 is omitted which reminds us that such an idea in the heart belongs to a fool. Similarly, it can be used to prove all kinds of contradictions and difficulties if read in an unfair manner - even the dictionary, a neutral tool, regards out of context quoting as illegitimate.
Thus we find that books of the Bible such as Ecclesiastes which puts a cynical view - 'all is vanity' is taken as contradictory when it clearly, in context is not, nor is it teaching doctrine in the strict sense.
The statements in Ecclesiastes are not at all troubling for believers but they do reflect the views put into the mouth of 'the preacher', written by Solomon in his mature years when he had access to anything and everything he wanted and found it wanting.
The truth contained in the Bible is available for those who want it and seek it. It certainly though does not contain all truth that has ever been written, since there is much truth and wisdom to be found elsewhere, insofar as these do not contradict it, and in many ways and places they do not, such as for example in what some call operational science and technology which is simply the way the world works without unproven(scientifically) cosmology attached.
