Here are a few helpful articles on inerrancy as well as books I recommend on the doctrine of inerrancy. John Frame "Is The Bible Inerrant?"David Wayne "Evangelicalism and Inerrancy"James White "Inspiration, Inerrancy, Preservation"Tim Challies "The Inerrancy of Scripture"The Assemblies of God Affirmation of Inerrancy (PDF file)The above articles are all short and to the point. That is why I recommended them. Books that I recommend are as fo...
I was pondering the above question with regard to those who reject inerrancy. If the Bible does contain errors (of which are documented as errors) then how does a person who rejects the Bible as the inerrant Word of God really read the Word of God? How do you decide which parts are inerrant and which parts are not? Do you reject all the miracles of the Bible or only some? For instance, since modern science holds that the u...
ON THE PREDESTINATION OF BELIEVERSI. As we have hitherto treated on the object of the Christian religion, that is, on Christ and God, and on the formal reasons why religion may be usefully performed to them, and ought to be, among which reasons, the last is the will of God and his command that prescribes religion by the conditions of a covenant; and as it will be necessary now to subjoin to this a discourse on the vocation of men to a participati...
When May 21, 2011 passes by, I pray that those zealous to spread the "May 21 Day of Judgment" message will be zealous to repent and preach Christ. I admire them for their zeal in spreading their message. One man spent over $140,000 of his savings to put up billboards all over the United States warning that May 21 is the day of judgment. Will he spend (if he has any left) that same amount on Bibles for China or supporting mission...
When David Wilkerson passed away, he was said to be giving a "tithe" of his day. He would pray for two hours and spend two hours in the Word of God reading and studying. I am, more and more as time goes by being Jesus' disciple, I am finding that I love the Word of God. Psalm 119:162 says, "I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil." That is me. I am longing for the Word of God, always looking in His Word to he...
I believe that a person could hear the gospel, become a disciple of Jesus, and then never read any other book but the Bible and that would be enough. This disciple could never read a single theology book. They could never read a single Bible commentary. They could go through their entire life and only read the Bible and that would be enough. The Bible is sufficient. It is the Word of God (Hebrews 4:12) and it speaks ...
Never mind that he was wrong in 1994 that Jesus would come. If you want to understand how Camping came to the conclusions that he has come to, that Jesus will return on May 21, 2011, see this link. This posts will show how Camping narrowed down the end of the world to May 21, 2011. Leave no doubt about it, Jesus will come back. Acts 1:11 promises us that He will. Hebrews 9:28 tells us that we are to waiting for Him when He...
William Miller was a 19th century Baptist pastor who adopted some dispensational mixed with historical views concerning prophetic books of the Bible and he begin to reason from Daniel 8:14 that Christ would return shortly. After doing some research using modern calendar, Miller concluded that the times of the Gentiles (Romans 11:25) was complete and that Jesus would return in 1844. Another Bible teacher who believed Miller's views was...
Most of you are probably well aware that 2011 makes the 400th anniversary of the King James Version of the Bible or sometimes known as the Authorized Version. It is hard to imagine the impact that the KJV Bible has had on the English speaking world and non-English speaking nations as well. The KJV not only motivated the Church of Jesus Christ for 350 years but it also motivated other things as well such as politics and even the foundi...
Recently I went to the local Christian bookstore to browse and the lady working there tried to get me to buy a book, Heaven is for Real: A Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back. Now I can't make a judgment about the book because I have not read the book and nor will I. I have never enjoyed these types of books. When I first became a disciple, someone gave me the book, A Divine Revelation of Hell by Ma...
