Hi Fond,
The problem is, you aren't really saying anything that has any substance. For example, when you say:
the bible (sic) is all ways (sic) right ,take archeoloy,(sic) babylon (sic) destroyed ,or cities bible (sic) prophecys (sic) comes (sic) true
How is anyone supposed to understand what you are getting at?
You say "take archaeology, Babylon destroyed", but readers do not know what you are referring to.
Does the Bible say that Babylon was destroyed? If it does then you would need to provide the biblical references.
To support "take archaeology", you would need to provide some archaeological evidence that Babylon was destroyed at the time the Bible claims and in the fashion it claims.
This:
or cities bible prophecys comes true
Perhaps you meant to put a comma after 'cities' because the way it is written does not make sense to me.
An opening post should really focus on one or maybe two points at most. If you wish to try and argue that the Bible is the perfect word of God and everything in it is accurate, then you should really just pick one of the points that you have suggested in your opening post. The reason for this is that each of the points you raise would be answered in detail and the thread would become a mess.
If you wanted to focus on archaeology for example, then just present two or three examples of where you believe archaeology has supported the biblical text. But, be prepared to support what you say with some references, do not just say something like "archaeology confirms everything in the Bible", you need to present examples and support them.
This rule would apply no matter what point you wish to raise, you must support your reasons for claiming biblical accuracy.
Perhaps it would be a better idea for you to look through the topic index and perhaps join in a few of those for a bit, then when you have more experience you could try opening a thread of your own.
There are many topics related to things mentioned in your opening post, prophecy has been done so many times around here that we hardly discuss it anymore.
If you are interested in the Bible and archaeology, then why not join in the Exodus thread that is currently running? You would gain some experience there and also see how to support arguments.
Hope this helps, if you require any help at all, please ask.
