I covered this before. You have made a mistake in your understanding of Clark. Your reading is uncharitable. The correction is as trivial as is the processes of deducing A from (A & B & C & D). It's the rule of simplification:
If (A & B & C & D) are true, then A is true.
Clark did not think he could deduce the propositions of Scripture from the sentence "The Bible is the Word of God" as if each term was merely a sound. He intends the reader to understand that the propositions of Scripture
are the content of the Bible.
So the logical is trivial: If X is a propositions of Scripture, then X is true.
