Scripture, tradition, and infallibility

The basic contention of this forthright and challenging study is that inerrancy and infallibility apply only to God and to his Son, Jesus Christ. Inasmuch as scripture has been given, transmitted, and interpreted through human channels, it is bound to bear the marks of that humanity. Nevertheless, God is not restricted by this self-imposed limitation. Scripture is sufficiently accurate and trustworthy to accomplish his purpose because the Holy Spirit drives home God's message with authority. The claims of biblical inerrancy or infallibility, Beegle believes, stem from insecurity. But scripture, understood properly, does not make such claims for itself; and most certainly a dynamic church characterized by confident preaching of the gospel has no need to go beyond the Bible to lend it such feeble defenses. - Cover.
