Again this is what is offered in Luke 11.I have not mentioned God anywhere except when I wanted to make this comparison when you said that this achievement is physically impossible, and that was not even direct. Pay some attention right here: I'm not referring to God specifically. How do you know for anything to be true? What is your standard of evidence? How much evidence would you need to believe me if I told you something extraordinary, like the story above?
Quote:That is why your analogy failed.No, you are showing me the claims/promises the Bible has made to us. I think I have mentioned somewhere that you need to distinguish God's Word from a book that claims to be the God's Word. And this proposal you're offering to me kind of sounds like begging the question: you're basically saying that I need to believe in God in order to believe in God.
The claims I provided are not from me. I am simply showing you all the claims/promises God has made to us. I have also pointed out that He will provide the proof you need to establish and maintain your relationship.
That would be like watching you climb that building if that is what is needed.
My analogy has nothing to do with God or anything for that matter. I just want to know your standard by which you determine the truth of things, that's all.
