If there is a scientific basis for rejecting a scientific theory, that is no problem. The Bible, however, is not a scientific basis. What’s more you cannot claim that it is God’s Word by citing the Bible itself for this authority. Anyone could write a book claiming to be the word of God(many have)and there is no way to prove empirically the their book is not the word of God.
For myself, I don’t think there is an issue reconciling science and faith. When I hear about the vastness of the Universe or the sub-atomic world, I am awestruck at the power of God.
Actually there are two ways, that scripture is validated.
Miracles that demonstrate God’s power. We can’t see those miracles that have been recorded, but we do have the testimony of those that did. And even occasionally secular references from that time as well.
And prophecy which demonstrate God’s foreknowledge. There were over 176 prophecies identified by Jewish rabbis prior to Jesus that Jesus fulfilled. Some things that weren’t considered prophetic prior to Jesus has a prophetic element that became obvious after Jesus.
For example, Leviticus 26 written by Moses promises Israel that if they obey God they would live in the land in peace. And if they disobeyed, they would be exiled. And if they repented, they’d be brought back and restored to the land. and if they didn’t repent, horrible things would happen to them but eventually God would bring them back anyway because of the covenant He had made with Abraham.
You see this fulfilled. Israel disobeyed and was exiled to Babylon. They repented and 70 years later they were brought back. The Prophet Zechariah writing sometime after the Babylonian exile spoke of another time when Israel would be gathered back together. And Jesus prophesied the destruction of Jerusalem. Jerusalem was destroyed as Jesus prophesized and Israel was scattered into a second exile. That exile lasted almost 2000 years until they were restored in 1949.
