The Bible is from God because God said it was. That's not circular reasoning.

But just as ignorant and driven by desire.

So E=Mc2 because Einstein said it is and so since he said it is that is circular reasoning.

But the Bible is from God. We know this because the Bible tells us it is from God. Whether you call it circular reasoning or not, it is a fact which cannot be denied.

Try telling that to all of the non-biblical Christians on this forum. "Them's fightin' words."

Why bother? There would be No Christians without the Bible.

I hope this doesnt turn into the typical 10-20 pages of going back and forth about homosexuality thread.

1 page can prove its a sin with basic scriptures that specifically address that issue, but 10+ pages is when you try to justify it as not being a sin, because you have to come up with every back door excuse to ignore what the bible says.

I guess he's putting gay sex behind him.

Today, there are no non-biblical Christians in my opinion.
(UPDATE: There may be cases where people have fallen away from Christ and now reject the Bible - God will still remain faithful to them in the end)

A Christian is one who believes in the fact that God sent Jesus to the earth to die for our sins and be physically raised from the dead. If you don't believe in the book where this is detailed, it is highly unlikely that you will believe in One being physically raised from the dead.

About everyone in the forum here who has trouble with the Bible has stated (upon my inquiry) that they have troubles with Christ's physical resurrection.

Do you realize that the Muslims that killed French citizens believe they have the true religion? They are no different than the Jewish barbarians that killed children in the OT.
