9780801031557: The Scripture Principle: Reclaiming the Full Authority of the Bible

Synopsis

This balanced approach to understanding the inspiration and authority of the Bible presents a "middle" position on biblical inerrancy that steers clear of pitfalls common to both ends of the spectrum. The authors defend the full authority and trustworthiness of the Bible against those who limit or dismiss its authority, yet they also reject the oversimplifications and false dichotomies found in fundamentalist appeals to verbal inerrancy in defense of the Bible's authority. They consider the whole doctrine of Scripture, including divine authority, human character, and spiritual dynamic, to resolve the biblical authority debate and provide the searching believer a discerning, functional trust in the Bible's relevance to everyday life. First published over twenty years ago - but all the more relevant for today's context - "The Scripture Principle" has now been revised to speak with new clarity on this perennial issue.
