The Bible is without error.

Luke 24:27 Words will not pass away

John 10:35 Scripture cannot be broken

Adam and Eve – Matthew 19:3-5; Mark 10:6-8

Noah’s Flood – Matthew 24:38-39; Luke 17:26-27

Destruction of Sodom and history of Lot – Matthew 10:15: Luke 17:28-29

Jonah swallowed by a great fish – Matthew 12:40

Historical people (in Matthew) – Isaiah (12:40); Elijah (17:11-13); Daniel (24:15), Abel (23:25), Zechariah (23:35), Abiathar (Mark 2:26), David (22:45), Moses (8:4), Abraham, Isaac and Jacob (8:11)

 

There are three false views of inerrancy that affect us

 

Infallible not Inerrant

Gets across God’s idea, but not His Words

Hell is not hell

 

Inerrant only in Salvation

Not inerrant in history

Not inerrant in science

Mistakes found throughout the Bible

 

Inerrant only in the King James

The King James Version corrects the original texts

 

If some of the Bible is wrong, how can you tell what is correct?

If the Bible is incorrect then God is a liar
