What was different about that?
because we're not approaching the Bible as an inspired text at that point but merely as an historically accurate book.
It's called a spiral argument.
I don't know, I think that you probably could have stated it better, because that was pretty rough, amigo. Now, it just seems as though you're deflecting...? So, let me get this straight, the reason that you know the bible is true..then, is not the reason that you gave before? When you said:
Quote:The Bible is truth because it is inspired
?
Is there, now, a different reason that you accept that "the bible is truth"? Care to share? -and, if you please..this time...start with your actual reasons..so we can avoid all of this in the future?
