The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Partial Inerrancy - working definition

The original autographs are complete without error. Today's copies may have some very minor mistakes, but nothing substantive. They are called inerrant as well as no Scripture contradicts itself.

Partial inerrancy is a view by those who basically claim that their are nuggets of infallible, inerrancy when Scriptuers speak on salvation, but not in other areas. I think their is a wider range in what some means when speaking for partial inerrancy (as my intent was in ascertaining with the thread). Apparently, some partial inerrantists will say the Bible is inerrant on matters of salvation and faith practices. Others will go even further or less on what are faith practices. Bottom line is that they are saying that the Bible is written by fallible man with some nuggets from the infallible God.
