I guess my point is that, if you believe that the Bible is truth mixed in with myth, then you need to go one step further in your argumentation, and show why it is that you believe the section upon which you are relying is truth and not myth.<BR/><BR/>That really is the ultimate problem for someone who denies that the Old Testament is reliable, and yet, wants to use it in their studies. Ultimately, I still believe it comes down to a worldview issue.

That will ultimately decide how you are going to view these issues.<BR/><BR/>God Bless,<BR/>PuritanCalvinistPuritanCalvinisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03285973808564103125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29472599.post-36031009533452126172008-08-23T21:09:00.000-07:002008-08-23T21:09:00.000-07:00Often times in archaeology truth is mixed in with ...Often times in archaeology truth is mixed in with myth.
