Without the writings of Herodotus, Thucydides, Tacitus, and Sima Qian the histories of Persia, Greece, Rome and China and men such as general Hannibal would perhaps not be known.
So, also, without the historians Moses, Matthew, Luke, and John, little would be know of mankind's and Christian history and the man Jesus Christ.
Why are the ancient historians believed when the Bible historians Moses, Matthew, Luke, and John are not believed.?

That's a common misconception. Historians do not allot greater weight to one historical author over another. Rather, they break down each ancient source into individual pieces of information called "pericopes," and they try to uncover the origins of those pericopes and determine the likelihood of them being true. Historians do not ignore the Bible. On the contrary, they evaluate its stories using the same methods that they use when evaluating authors like Herodotus or Thucydides.
