Sure. They believe in the infallibility of Scripture, which does not, according
to either system or any other system of beliefs (except maybe Mormons), include
the Sefir-i-Yetzirah or the Testament of Abraham (much less the Mormon "Book of
Abraham"). This is a very weird direction to take a discussion.

Earlier there was the topic of the Book of Abraham. This highlights the
difference between tradition and scholars on who wrote what and when it was
written.
Anyone who's ever been to an evangelic Protestant church or an Orthodox
synagouge will know some religious people don't care for modern liberal
scholarship and reject it entirely favoring the inerrancy and infallibility of
scripture.
