By the Holy Spirit, The Holy Spirit is the Only one that can draw someone to God.
Where did you get this info? The Bible?
I Worship God, not the Bible. The Bible isn't God.
It's a map, but not the Land
It's a guide book but not the Guide.
Which God do you worship? The God of the Bible?
You can't say the Bible(A book of about 788,280 words) is fully 100% equivalent to an Infinite God.
So do you believe the Bible?

You're being quite evasive.

Those were direct answers.
Where? From the Holy Spirit, He bears witness to my spirit.
Who? The Only true Living God.
What? Believe what, that it's 100% accurate with 0 error? no.

Maybe the problem is with the Questions.

You are using Biblical terms, Jesus, Holy Spirit, Living God. Where did you get them if not from the Bible?

:sigh: you don't get it do you?
Jesus != Bible
Holy Spirit != Bible
God The Father != Bible

None of the above are the Bible.
The Bible is a Map, not the Land. Like any Map it's not 100% accurate, it can't be.

You say you don't trust the Bible, but you use many Biblical terms. How about some consistency?

I know you wouldn't lie, so can you quote where I say I don't trust the Bible?

You clearly said it's not God's Word and is erroneous. If you want to attack the Bible then you shouldn't base your religion on Biblical terms.
No I said it's not 100% accurate.
Are you going to quote me where I supposedly stated

Or not?

You didn't answer. Do you trust in an erroneous book?
Do I trust the Bible, as far as it's accurate.

You can answer your own question.
I can't quote a post where I am supposedly saying what I never said unlike what you posted me as stating.


So I can safely assume you can't quote me saying what you've reported me as saying.

You mean when it agrees with you?

It's a very simple question. Do you trust in a book that is erroneous? And how do you determine Biblical 'errors'? By your wisdom?

Should I believe God or you?

Exodus 20:11 (KJV)
11 For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day:

You don't have to believe me, believe what God's own creation has said about this.

It's not a matter of choosing between God's word and the data from science; it's not a dichotomy. I believe Scripture to be God's holy and inspired written word. That doesn't mean I take the Creation account literally.

I believe God's holy and inspired written word, I also believe what the data and evidence from creation says, that includes a 14 billion year old universe and millions of years of evolution. It's not either/or, it's both/and.

I believe what Genesis 1 says, I just don't believe it's a literal-historical account. Genesis 1 is true, but it's not literal or historical.

Creation says that God exists.

Contradiction.
I believe what Genesis 1 says, I just don't believe it's a literal-historical account. Genesis 1 is true, but it's not literal or historical.

Jesus believed Genesis to be literal.

Matthew 24:37-39 (KJV)
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
