Biblical Inerrancy Part 2 BAPTIST FELLOWSHIP CHURCH This week we continue with Pastor's comments regarding the doctrine of "Biblical Inerrancy." In review of last week, inerrancy means the entire Bible is without error. Pastor gave Scripture references where Christ authenticates some controversial passages. In addition to the concept of an inerrant book indicating a perfect author, other concepts to consider are: 4. Those who most often question the accuracy of the Bible are those who do not give it serious study. "The Bible is full of errors" is an expression usually repeated by an individual ignorant of Biblical truth. 5. Because the Bible is inerrant it has the power to change lives (Ps. 119:9-11; Jer. 23:29; John 17:17; Rom. 1:16; Heb. 4:12; 1 Pet. 2:2). Examples would also include the Apostle Paul and John Newton, hymn writer of "Amazing Grace," etc. In hundreds of passages, the Bible declares or assumes itself to be the Word of God (the only perfect being and so without error (Deut. 6:6-9, 17-18; Josh. 1:8, 8:32-35; 2 Sam. 22:31; Ps. 1:2, 12:6, 19:7-11, 119:9-11, 18:89-93, 97-100, 104-5, 130; Prov. 30:5-6; Is. 55:10-11; Jer. 15:16, etc., etc.). Can one be a biblicist and deny inerrancy? Not if the Bible teaches its own inerrancy. How important is this doctrine then? If it is a biblical teaching, then to deny it is to deny part of the truthfulness of the Bible. Consider this: If the Bible contains some errors, however few or many, how can one be sure that his understanding of Christ and salvation is correct? When inerrancy is denied one may expect some serious fallout in both doctrinal and practical areas.
