My starting premise is God, and with penitent humility, God is my foregone conclusion.

You have no method to reach truth then, because you've shut out the possibility of anybody other than you being correct. That is incredibly vain.

It's not an argument of any type.

It's not a formal argument, but you know what I meant.

A prophet is someone who knows God's plan as it applies to many people. So yes, you claimed that prophets are heretics.

That's not what I said though. I never even used the word in the first place.

They might indeed make true statements or valid arguments now and then, but they can only do so in service of the Beast, attempting to lead others down the road to Hell.

And as a result you cannot dismiss evidence based on who is presenting it.

Nothing wrong with respecting authorities, and trusting their assessments. God is, after all, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings.

You've completely missed my point.

But that's no fallacy;

It's a true scottsman fallacy.

My only goal post is your acceptance of Christ.

Then I would recommend that you familiarize yourself with how logical fallacies work, because you've been using so many of them.
