    To what extent does the Bible shape your political opinions?

    Just a curiosity question: Do you believe the Bible is inspired by God and without error? Are your political opinions shaped by what it says, or do they come from some other source? I ask because I do call myself a “born-again, Bible-believing Christian,” and my positions on the political...

    Faith in the living, resurrected Word (while the scriptures are only 50% historically accurate).

    This post is primarily for those who believe the scriptures (original documents) are an inerrant, perfect representation of historical events. Of course, anyone may comment. (This post may need to be moved, but I figured the topic would be controversial for some so I placed it here). Let's...

    OCD about Salvation and Biblical Inerrancy

    I feel hopeless. I have pure obsessional OCD, which causes me to question everything. Then I do hours and hours of research to prove the thing I'm doubting to myself. Currently I doubt the Bible's inerrancy so I don't know for sure how to be saved or is this salvation eternally secure. Let's...
