God -> Jesus -> Bible -> God

Most of what anyone says they believe about God, Jesus, the Bible itself is found in the bible.  Many skeptics will say it’s a circular argument.  Like trying to define a word by using the word itself.

I.e. If I were to teach you about Complementary angles and say “they are angles that are complements of each other.”  Well, you might follow that up with “what are angles that are complements of each other?” to which the answer would be “Complementary angles.”  Circular arguments don’t tell you anything.

So to say I believe the Bible is the truth because the Bible says it is, sounds like a circular argument.

However, the evidences of the bible are what validate the use of the bible to corroborate your belief.

From the Bible we learn about God and also His plan of salvation that includes Jesus, His Son.
