In otherwords you can not use the bible to define the nature of God and then frame a question by that defination Then discount the bible when it is used to answer your question. For it is through the bible your question was framed, and it is through the bible it is answered. To argue otherwise is an appeal failed logic.
Nonsense! Of course I can use the Bible to discredit your belief. I don't believe in the daft Bible. You believe in it. You base your faith on the Bible. I have every right to show you that from your own book, your faith has no basis.
Right now, I am showing you that there is no basis in the first place to trust the Bible on that other thread but you are being very evasive. I will be Rumpole and get you to answer the questions soon enough.

This thread is about the meaning of righteousness. If you have nothing to add then have the decency not to add filler for the sake of doing so.
Yes I have done so and this is my post in that thread:

As you can see, you are terribly evasive and to this moment you refuse to answer my simple question: Since you set much store by the Bible, what is your basis for saying that the 66 books of the Holy Bible are the word of God and all other books including the Apocrypha and the Book of Mormon aren't?
It's a simple question.
