Biblical Inerrancy Part 1

Baptist Fellowship Church

According to Pastor Shelton, a recent article in the Baptist Bulletin entitled, "Here We Stand," has created questions about some of the theological terms used. In the coming weeks, Pastor will be defining those terms. The first theological area to be considered is "Biblical Inerrancy."

Inerrancy means the Bible is without error throughout, whether it is speaking historically, scientifically, or morally. So, let's look at some concepts:

1. An inerrant book indicates a perfect author. (Inaccurate writings or speeches would reveal a less than perfect author.) See Deut. 18: 21-22.

2. The Bible claims that every detail within its pages is without error. See Matt. 5:18.

3. Christ authenticated the passages which have most often been challenged as to their accuracy.

Matthew 12:40 Jonah and the great fish
Matthew 12:41 Repentance of the city of Nineveh
Matthew 19:3-9 Creation and marriage
Luke 17:26-27 The flood
Luke 17:28-29 Destruction of Sodom
Luke 17:32 Lot's wife turned into a pillar of salt
Luke 4:27 Miraculous healing of Naaman's leprosy
John 3:14 The brazen serpent

Discussion will continue next week regarding the inerrancy of the Bible. Direct questions or comments to Pastor Shelton at 456-2525, 707-2728; e-mail Pastor Shelton at pastor@fbfchurch.com; or snail mail to Baptist Fellowship Church, 6807 Peavine Rd., Fairfield Glade, TN 38558.
