What does the word inerrancy main? Inerrancy would refer
to text that is accurate and totally free of any errors or without any
mistakes. Does this sound like any book that you have ever read or have
knowledge of. Maybe there is a one sentence book that could fall into
this category.
Most books however and even this article has mistakes. If I made a
decision to base my life, my entire life and that of my children and
grandchildren, I would want to make sure that it was accurate as
possible.
Is the Bible, 100%, 90%, or even 50% accurate. Are these stories that
were written by people many years ago and the lessons have been helpful
but now need to be rewritten.
Does the Bible actually contain the will of God? Some scholars believe
that certain sections of the Bible meet this criteria while others do
not. How can these people judge if they are not God and how can we
believe in this stuff is not true.
If the Bible was inspired by God but written by men, this could actually
mean that God had complete control over writing the Bible or does this
mean that the man wrote the Bible with gods inspiration. I'm inspired by
God daily and often write about it, but don't seem to have enough
followers to make it into the biblical Hall of Fame. I'm writing with
inspired beliefs right now.
If there are errors in the Bible, how extensive or how many errors are
there actually. There are actual stories that can be documented as
historical facts. This doesn't mean the rest of the Bible is factual,
nor does it mean it is historically inaccurate.
The Bible has some errors in it and some facts that we can prove but
leaves us with the question, is this a book from the Creator of the
universe or a book written by men, to make us believe, it was written by
God and if so why are we still believe being in it. Why do some people
read this book and other religious text daily? What motivates them to
read holy Scripture regularly but doesn't seem to allow them enough time
to find out if they are reading accurate information.
The biggest problem I have with the inerrancy of the Bible is the fact
that most people tend to ignore certain truths and cling to their
childhood beliefs about religion. If this is not the way or the truth, I
would want to start looking for it, instead of following someone else's
dreams or religious doctrine. |
