The inspiration and authority of the Bible : thoughts since 1984.
Review: "The common options set forth regarding the inspiration and authority of the Bible are usually excessive, either on the "liberal" or on the "inerrancy" side, leaving division and confusion for those who reverence the Bible but do not wish to look blindly at the text." "In The Scripture Principle, Clark Pinnock and Barry Callen present a balanced "middle'' position on biblical inerrancy that steers clear of pitfalls common to both ends of the spectrum. The authors defend the full authority and trustworthiness of the Bible against those who limit or dismiss its authority. Yet they also reject the oversimplifications and false dichotomies found in fundamentalist appeals to verbal inerrancy in defense of the Bible's authority."--BOOK JACKET.
