Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book sets out to challenge the popular idea of the infallibility of Holy Writ, and to demonstrate the true nature and authority of the Bible. The author believes that this will underpin and strengthen a reasonable and intelligent Christian faith. The book is not a dismissive attack on religion; the author is a believer and a clergyman, and his intention is to explore and explain the meaning of divine inspiration and its significance for our faith. With a particular focus on the New Testament, the author demonstrates the existence of errors within Holy Writ, which he believes the Bible's advocates have attempted to explain away. He examines the arguments for the Bible's infallibility drawn from miracles, prophecy, Christ's authority, and the Bible's own claims, finding no evidence of divine inspiration guaranteeing infallibility. His alternative view of inspiration is one that acknowledges the Bible as the unique and authoritative record of God's interactions with the world, while recognising it is a fallible human document. He concludes that while we should respect the Bible's authority, we must also recognise its limitations and allow reason and faith to work together in our understanding of its teachings.
