You are absolutely right about the circular reasoning issue. If the Bible offered no proof of its words beyond quotations made from within it to support other statements from within it, then it is useless and it is lying. Proof is required for faith to be valid.

I have proof of the Bible's major claim and ongoing proof of many of its statements. That is what the Scripture means when its says, "To the Law and to the Testimony, if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them." The Law (the word) has a testimony (proof) which validates it. People with only the Word (the Bible) that lack the proof of it are false witnesses of God. People with a testimony that lack scriptural basis are false witnesses of God as well. Both are required for validation, for they are one.

I had little use for the Bible until I met the risen Jesus of Nazareth. The validation of this major claim to me personally agrees with both those who know Him and with the Bible as well.
