Then why did you say actual scientific evidence ...is just as authoritative as Scripture? You say one thing and when questioned you say something different and what is already known. The little dance of evading to back up your own words of scientific evidence ...is just as authoritative as Scripture is noted in each post.
So we can discern His Word in both what He created and what He inspired.
Christians BELIEVE His Word - and His Word is spiritually discerned. His Word can't be discerned through nature but by His Spirit.
Again, here's another non answer God did not create Evil per se.
I posted 'Evil is real and is God the master of that? in response to your I mean that God is the Master of all reality. BACKING away from your own words, once again, we not desire to correct your own words.
and not just the Master of the text.
Text? What is 'text' about this...
"For the Word of God is ALIVE and ACTIVE. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." Heb 4:6
Man made teachings are text, merely, words instituted by man to be believe by those easily duped/deceived. “in order that no advantage be taken of us by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his schemes” (2 Corinthians 2:11)
Now back to your first words of this post No, I'm not lifting up man to God's status. That would be an absurdity, since our knowledge and virtue are as nothing compared with His.
Yet you believe in the 'infallibility' of certain men? So much for your 'no, I'm not lifting up man to God's status'.
Because they are both the works of God. Neither one depends upon man at all. Yes, man can try to interpret the natural world, its characteristics and laws, just as he tries to interpret Scripture, but God is the author and creator of both, in a manner that indicates His greatness, and not man's greatness.
The misunderstanding, here, may possibly arise from the idea that Scripture is God's but science is man's. This division does not hold.
And "infallibility"? No, I do not believe that any man (other than Christ) is infallible in the positive sense you evidently mean. I do know that no man has the power to lead the whole Church into error on questions of faith and morals. Please notice that this does not refer us to any particular man's (for instance, the Pope's) power, but his powerlessness: he will not be able to do it.
