Does Inerrancy Matter? - Nathan Rages

Eight reasons why it's important to believe that the Bible is free from errors:

1. Because the Bible declares its own truthfulness (2Samuel 7:28, Psalm 12:6, Psalm 19:7-11, Psalm 119:89,96,140, Proverbs 30:5, Luke 24:25, John 10:35, John 17:17, Acts 24:14, Romans 15:4).

2. Because what the Bible says, God says (Matthew 1:22, Matthew 19:4-5, Acts 1:16, John 1:1, 2Timothy 3:16, 2Peter 1:21).

3. Because God cannot lie (Numbers 23:19, Romans 3:4, Titus 1:2, Hebrews 6:18). 

4. Because even the Bible’s small details are important (Matthew 4:4, Matthew 5:17-18, Mark 12:26-27, Galatians 3:16).

5. Because the Bible’s history narratives are essential (1Timothy 2:12-14).

6. Because we must stay under the Bible’s authority (Genesis 3:5, Proverbs 1:7, Proverbs 9:10, Isaiah 66:2).

7. Because a church needs a shared foundation (1Timothy 3:15, Amos 3:3).

8. Because unbelief is progressive and destructive (Hebrews 3:12-13, 2Corinthians 2:11) .
