Physical Evidence And Reasoned Logic.
Make up you mind, which one? Physical only is no way to look at how the future will be. Nor creation. Reason cannot exclude the spiritual, when focusing on the future or past. That bird has flown.

Who wants Jesus' words to go away? They're interesting.

They don't do you much good, but nobody particularly cares about that.
Not sure why you bother posting to misrepresent what people say? Obviously the point was made that His words will not pass away...

Mt 24:35 -Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

Very few words "pass away" once someone writes them down.

And more importantly, once they are spoken.
But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. Mat. 12:36 & 37

So, The Bible is God's Word, because The Bible has not passed away.... and the reason that the Bible has not passed away, is because the Bible is God's Word.

No. The future is where the bible will not pass away, but your world will. Change that...fast.

...If you think I am wrong, then show me why a literal interpretation of genesis is correct and describe why the earth exhibits age and history.

1. Because God doesn't lie and a non-accurate account of the source of all life and matter would be a stumbling block to "The Truth". Not to smart to mess with "Where you came from".

2. God says that the earth as well as any miracles he performs will show age and history (In your mind anyway).

John 2:10 and said, "Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now."

A <--> B

What is wrong with that?

If you think that is an example of circular reasoning, then you should retake logic 101.

Since it's not established that A => B, your logic is unsound: it is not established that the reason the Bible has not 'passed away' is because it's 'Gods word' - it's entirely possible, for instance, that if it's just an old piece of test, it's persisted by sheer chance. After all, there must be a most popular religion, and it would have a scared text - who's to say that Christianity didn't just get lucky?

You did not get the question right. And, I am sorry that I will not bother to clear that up for you.
