Circular Reasoning

The Problem

If the Bible proves itself as divine, then why do most people still not believe it? The problem arises from the condition that Jesus explained in John 7:17, only the person who desires to do God’s will can see that the teaching of Christ is from God. The foundational problem is that sinful humans do not want to do God’s will because they are blinded by the darkness of sin and the devil (2 Cor 4:4). Therefore, they cannot see the self-authenticating glory of the Scriptures. The person who has their will set on doing what is evil will not submit to God’s authority, since they think of it as foolishness (Rom 8:7). They love the darkness, instead of turning to the light of the Word, which would expose their evil deeds (John 3:19-20).
