Yes The Quran does, and having faith in the bible is a must for a muslim.

(6:34)
Verily, (many) Messengers were denied before you (O Muhammad SAW), but with patience they bore the denial, and they were hurt, till Our Help reached them, and none can alter the Words (Decisions) of Allâh. Surely there has reached you the information (news) about the Messengers (before you).
Allah is talking about his decisions, and not his revelations. The Quran the last word cannot be changed, and it is still the same for 1400 years. For any revelation to be true it has to stand the test of time.
Ayah (10:34)
Say: "Is there of your (Allâh's so-called) partners one that originates the creation and then repeats it?" Say: "Allâh originates the creation and then He repeats it. Then how are you deluded away (from the truth)?"
So there is no mention of Allah's revelations, would you please clarify Mr David?

In 1064, Ibn-Khazem, FIRST charged that the Bible had been
corrupted and the Bible falsified.[/quote:c84f9b7c21]
Who is Ibn Khazem? And He wasn't the first to say that the bible is corrupted
Allah ta'la says: [b:c84f9b7c21]There is among them a section who distort the Book with their tongues: (As they read) you would think it is a part of the Book, but it is no part of the Book; and they say, "That is from Allah," but it is not from Allah. It is they who tell a lie against Allah, and (well) they know it! [/b:c84f9b7c21]
(3:78)
[b:c84f9b7c21]From those, too, who call themselves Christians, We did take a covenant, but they forgot a good part of the message that was sent them: so we estranged them, with enmity and hatred between the one and the other, to the day of judgment. And soon will Allah show them what it is they have done. [/b:c84f9b7c21] (5:14)
The Prophet Muhammed (PBUH) himself was angry when he saw Hadhrat Umar (RA) reading the bible.
Allah, Subhanahu Wata’ala, says, "It is He who has sent down the Book ( the Qur’an ) to you ( Mohammad ) in truth, confirming what came before it. "
therefore, everything useful in these Books is mentioned in the Qur’an.
