That would be circular logic, to attempt to prove a deity exists by using scripture as "evidence".
No, that is mind that lacks nuance and fails to see the necessity of separating the study of scripture from natural theology and is eager to share the fruits of his atheist indoctrination.
Even secular Bible critiques know the Bible fairly well before they try and "reason" about it. You are just going to try and create some sort of syllogism with propositions the original languages havn't don't even contain.
You can either be a student of the Bible, or you can be a "free thinker" and rely on atheist apologetics to think for you.
