How do you know Peter denied him three times?
Um. Lets look at the bible you claim to study.
NASB Matthew 26:31-35:
Then Jesus *said to them, “You will all fall away because of Me this night, for it is written, ‘I will strike down the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered.’ [SUP]32 [/SUP]But after I have been raised, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.” [SUP]33 [/SUP]But Peter said to Him, “Even though all mayfall away because of You, I will never fall away.” [SUP]34 [/SUP]Jesus said to him, “Truly I say to you that this very night, before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” [SUP]35 [/SUP]Peter *said to Him, “Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You.” All the disciples said the same thing too.
NASB Matthew 26: 69-75:
Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a servant-girl came to him and said, “You too were with Jesus the Galilean.” [SUP]70 [/SUP]But he denied it before them all, saying, “I do not know what you are talking about.” [SUP]71 [/SUP]When he had gone out to the gateway, another servant-girl saw him and *said to those who were there, “This man was with Jesus of Nazareth.” [SUP]72 [/SUP]And again he denied it with an oath, “I do not know the man.” [SUP]73 [/SUP]A little later the bystanders came up and said to Peter, “Surely you too are one of them; for even the way you talk gives you away.” [SUP]74 [/SUP]Then he began to curse and swear, “I do not know the man!” And immediately a rooster crowed. [SUP]75 [/SUP]And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, “Before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” And he went out and wept bitterly.
Because what was written about him was inspired. Not in error.
Did I say the bible was in error? If so, I am not a true believer that I claim to be.
Have you personally met augustine? if you did not. can you say the things written about him? or the things writtenthat CLAIM to be what he said are not in error?
This is what I would call, "The Fallacy Fallacy." Plus, this statement is weak and poorly structured and makes your stance on G-d brought at a fragile state. Anyone can use this agrument and say: "Have you personally met G-d? Have you personally met the Apostles?" If you did not, can you say the things written about Him or the things written that claim to be what he said are not in error? Restate you point in a different context, otherwise the whole point would be disregarded as double-minded.
