Tom said: As some of you know many people today (even Calvinists) don't believe in the inerrancy of Scripture. I am of the view that if there is even one error in Scripture it would mean that a verse like 2Tim. 3:16 "All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness;" (NASB) would be a lie. In particular I am looking at the words "inspired by God".
What are your thoughts on this matter? Am I all wet?
Tom
Not at all! Every attack on the inerrancy of scripture is an attack on the doctrine of justification by faith alone. If we were to find even one error in scripture, we would be setting our reason above scripture. We would no longer be justified by faith alone but our discernment which enables us to determine which parts of God's word are true.
