Isn't using the Bible to "prove" the existence of God">

Isn't using the Bible to "prove" the existence of God, "circular" reasoning? Not when outside sources are used to prove without doubt, the Divine nature of the writing of the Bible. First, we know the Old Testament scripture was written hundreds of years before Christ (we have existing manuscripts actually written centuries before Jesus). Second, the Bible contains many Scientific Insights written thousands of years before science discovered the facts. Only in the last few centuries have scientific discoveries literally proven the insights in physics, medicine and other fields - (written 3,000 years earlier). More importantly the Bible contains over 600 specific, historical prophecies - all precisely fulfilled and verified by a variety of historical records. The list of prophecies includes exact description of amazing events. Prophecies also foretell names of people in key roles and even predicts exact years and days of some of the most important Biblical events... hundreds of years in advance. History and archaeology confirm the Divine prophecies and insights in the Bible.
