My point is that God cannot lie....

And that point is still wrong.

Snakes and devils do lie...

I'm not aware of any lying snakes in the Bible. Do you have an example?

In Genesis 2-3 it was God who didn't give the bigger picture. Even if we take your interpretation, He didn't tell Adam that "death" meant "spiritual death" or that "in the day" meant thousands of days in the future.

I do believe that the book can be trusted if read with the proper mind (a mind submitted to Christ rather than stubbornly independent, unbiased, and skeptical)

So a "proper" mind is biased and gullible?
