"To explain the unknown by the known is a logical procedure; to explain the known by the unknown is a form of theological lunacy."

Deductive reasoning is to explain the unknown by the known, like you can with math.
Inductive reasoning is used to develop hypotheses to explain the known by the unknown. Then the hypothesis is tested and verified, or not, over time.

NO!
Romans 1:22Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
The Holy Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the written Word of God, given by divine inspiration through holy men of God who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. In this Word, God has committed to man the knowledge necessary for salvation. The Holy Scriptures are the infallible revelation of His will. They are the standard of character, the test of experience, the authoritative revealer of doctrines, and the trustworthy record of God's acts in history. (2 Peter 1:20, 21; 2 Tim. 3:16, 17; Ps. 119:105; Prov. 30:5, 6; Isa. 8:20; John 17:17; 1 Thess. 2:13; Heb. 4:12.)
