human logic cannot replace supernatural work of the Holy Spirit. One may not agree with what is in the Bible because it doesn't meet their logic however, to call it fallacy when it is written in the the word of God in 1 Cor chapter 12,13, 14 , is opinionated.

9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
11 When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

The perfect is the completion of the bible. The complete revelation of God for man. The OT was in part a shadow of things to come and those who looked therein saw as it were through a glass darkly but with the completion of the NT we see as face to face.

52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:
53 Who have received the law by the disposition of angels, and have not kept it.
54 ¶ When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, and they gnashed on him with their teeth.
55 But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into heaven, and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing on the right hand of God,
The human will can be very difficult to manage at times. Men often react in very negative ways when presented with reason especially biblical reason that does not agree with their predetermined conclusions. They find fault and insult where there in none.
We both are opinionated. Unity does not require uniformity. Our opinions differ but it is the same Christ who is our Savior.
For the cause of Christ
