When People Reject Inerrancy of Scripture

It's important to understand the implications of rejecting Bible inerrancy. Don't be taken in by deceptive arguments. #BibleLoveNotes #Bible #Devotions #Inerrancy

Scripture teaches us that God’s Word is God's Word - inerrant (Hebrews 4:12; 2 Timothy 3:16-17).(1)

However, a growing number of people are rejecting this truth. They’ve decided the Bible contains God’s words, but is not God’s Word. They claim some parts were written by biased, culture-bound men.(2)

These people depend on their human understanding to judge the validity of every passage, even the words of Christ (Proverbs 3:5).

Popular teachers who hold this view often take difficult passages out of context to “prove” the Bible is not God’s Word (2 Peter 3:15-16). Some teach that Christ’s death was not required, and most of them reject unpopular moral commands (Romans 1:32).

In 45 years of Bible study, I’ve found a few passages difficult to understand, but careful study has eliminated most of my questions. I can trust God with the few insignificant questions that remain because His Word gives me confidence that He is trustworthy (1 Corinthians 13:12). 

If we do not trust God’s Word, we become our own gods.
