When I said "Book of Nature" I meant that as a figure of speech for all we can know of the natural world in terms of evidence, and reasonable inferences from evidence. When I say it has the same Author as the Bible, I mean that God is the Master of all reality, and not just the Master of the text.

And Catherine, I fully agree with this statement of yours:

"God IS a God of reason and coherence, because He is Truth. But He is also a God of unknowable mysteries and astonishing miracles."

Well said. We're on the same page there.

I wasn't looking for your Book of Nature to be explained! However, it still has NOTHING to do about KNOWING God! It shows that HE IS ALMIGHTY which we already know through His Word. The world He made for man to enjoy and He did it ALL in the days prior to HE making man.

When I say it has the same Author as the Bible, I mean that God is the Master of all reality, and not just the Master of the text.

EVIL is real - are you saying God is the Master of that, also? Master of the text? It is text to you? IT is HIS Spoken Word divinely inspired by HIS OWN SPIRIT!

Why did you leave out the part I responded to... your actual scientific evidence....is just as authoritative as Scripture

'Man' having evidence of God's creation is equivalent to GOD'S WORD??? Seems you have lifted up 'man' to God status.
