Mis-Quotes

A few days ago I read a post that left the impression that Charles Hodge did not believe in inerrancy. I think there are those out there who should read a little more before they make statements that can not be supported. I have both volumns of Hodges Systematic in my library. I went looking to find out what he had to say about inerrancy and found that he absolutely believed in inerrancy. In fact down until about the last 100 years most of protestant theologians believed in inerrancy. Not only did Hodge say he believed in inerrancy, but there is another word he used that you would not like and that is that the Bible is absolutely authoritative in all maters of faith and practice. Good now read Hodge all of chapter 6 about The Protestant Rule of Faith. I really do get the picture you really do not like God and have a great time attacking Christians. I also happen to have a copy of B.B. Warfields work on Inspiration and Authority and fine no where that he says anything that can be interpreted as saying that he believed there were mistakes in the Bible.

Most of the so called mistakes are little things like word order and spelling of certain words. However, this in no way affects a major doctrine of Scripture. You need to say a little appology to these men for miss representing them to the blogging community.

Now about errors in scripture, only the origional autographs were inspired the translations were not, although the translations have for the most part come across very good. It is interesting that when the Dead Sea Scrolls were studied they found that our copy of the book of Isaiah was actually very accurate. Your comments about God you will have to take up with Him when you stand before Him at the judgment day. I will pray that God will be lenient with you because you are an ignoramus when it comes to the Bible.
