You believe because you accept that the Bible is true and you accept that the Bible is true because you believe and you believe because you accept that the Bible is true and you accept the Bible is true because.... etc. etc. etc.
As I keep saying. If you start with a faulty premise [1] then all things that follow are also likely to be faulty [2]
And it's that word 'accurately' that gives the game away doesn't it. It suggests that anyone who disagrees with you about the evidence in the Bible is not looking at it in the right way. The right way being 'your' way!
