All in all, though, the Bible's purpose is not to give us an accurate portrayal of history but to tell us about God.
Are you allowing the bible to prove God? Shouldnt we ask God to prove or disprove what is said about him ?
I read back through the last seven pages on this topic and found that prayer was only used by one person and it was quotes from the old testament.
The Spirit of God not only once inspired those who wrote it, but continually inspires, supernaturally assists, those that read it with earnest prayer
To me, the bible should not be lifted up above, or to take the place of God. It should only be used to point to God.
If it is indeed inerrant and all contains absolute truths, if there are no additions or omissions from the spirit led authors and if it the language is totally understandable then and only then will it need no interpretation.
Love Ya!
