Modus tollens is derived from Modus Ponens or can be. Therefore it can always be re-written as each other.
For example, if you transform the verse from A -> B to Not A -> Not B
"If you don't find much contradictions, then it is from God"
Then you don't have to use modus tollens but can use Modus ponens:
If there is no contradictions found in the book, then it is from God
There is no contradictions found in the book.
Therefore it is from God.
Every modus tollen can be re-written as modus ponen because of the fact you can derive:
A -> B = Not B -> Not A.
