Believing that the Bible is true and truth is a big step towards making any claim of being a Christian credible.

If you think that the Bible is fake, a story, a allegory, or anything but the truth, they you’re calling God a liar. If He’s a liar, then nothing He said in the Bible can be counted on and there can be no salvation from a lie.

“If you think that the Bible is fake, a story, a allegory, or anything but the truth, they you’re calling God a liar.”

If you believe that the Bible contains no allegory and instead faithfully swallow the deceitful writings of fraudulent authors with no scientific credentials, then you, madam, are not the Christian you profess to be. You are instead a member of a cult sect whose definition of itself and of others is of but academic interest to real Christians.

That is such a beautiful example of a circular argument. Do you mind if I use it in my class?

This is the leap that I’ve not yet figured out. If the Genesis account of creation is allegory then God is a liar. One simply does not follow from the other, at least from where I sit.
