You said that your argument is that it's valid to show that the Bible makes the claim of divine inspiration for itself.

You claim that the value in doing so is that it establishes divine inspiration as a legitimate Christian doctrine, and therefore worthy of preaching and defense.

The bible claims to be divine so it establishes divine inspiration. This is the worst kind of circular reasoning. You are screwing yourself into the dust here.

You muddy the waters (thankfully) by saying that it does NOT - repeat NOT! - settle the issue for skeptics, unbelievers, doubters, etc. And you NEVER said it did or should!!!!

The allegedly resurrected Jesus said (Mark 16:15):

Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

16:16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

16:17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

16:18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

I believed and was baptized the Sunday before JFK was assassinated. However, Mark was smart enough to have his Jesus say that signs shall follow them that believe. Alas, the absence of these miracles proves that I am damned.

The drano challenge is still open to those who think that they believe. Jesus said believers can drink any deadly thing but the grand prize of the drano challenge is still instant death for both believers and non-believers, thus proving that Jesus as written was a liar.

To whom are Christians defending the bible and preaching about the bible? Jesus as written said to EVERY creature. However, you and Jesus as written are dead wrong when you say that the bible is worthy of preaching and defense, unless you take the drano challenge.
