the whole concept of 'axiom/postulate' is that something is assumed to be true, on faith, and all the rest falls into place because of that one faith. what i was saying is that if we assume the Bible is true, we can arrive at 'God does not lie' and 'God gave the scripture' because both of those things are either explicit or implicit in the Bible.
it's equally true that if we start with 'God gave the Bible' and 'God does not lie' as axioms, then we get 'the Bible is true' from that.
My whole point was ' as believers , to reduce our axioms. Minimising them , to the three suggestions . Maybe we'll nail this on the door somewhere lol
