There has to be a BASIS of truth,
and you can pick God’s Word, or you can pick your own understanding and reason. But tell me, what is that “reason and understanding” based on? How do you know it’s sound? You don’t.
If you pick human reason and understanding, you’re planting your feet firmly in mid-air and saying you stand on truth.
If you say “I will choose, decide, and interpret the Bible, saying it’s true here, untrue there, and alegorized in another place”, you’re still putting your human reason and understanding ABOVE the scripture as the basis of truth.
Most humanists don’t even understand what they are basing their worldview on, much less understand that it’s a vapor.
That’s exactly what I am saying: YOU CAN’T ‘Pick and Choose’ you either believe it all (or logically you haven’t really thought this through)!
