We can never know the truth using inductive reasoning. We can sometimes use inductive reasoning to calculate a probability of something being true. However, worldviews automatically influence calculations. We automatically add assumptions to calculations without realizing we’re doing it. The deception is so complete that only the Holy Spirit can show us our errors.
On the other hand, we have absolute proof. We know Jesus Christ personally. That’s proof. He leads us and guides us. He lives within us. By His utterance within us, we know the Bible is valid. He speaks to us through the Bible. And He speaks to us through every means of divine revelation mentioned in the Bible. We know it absolutely. Faith is absolute. And faith comes by hearing and hearing comes by the word (rhema or utterance) of God. We can’t prove our inner experience to anyone else. However, every person who seeks Christ finds Christ. And Christ is the Light Who lights every person who comes into the world. Anyone can seek Him. No one has to ignore Him when He speaks. Many willingly ignore Him. Many refuse to listen. Those who refuse to listen to Christ have no excuse.
