Greetings: In another thread called, "The Word of God" (right here on the Christian Scriptures board), GraceandPeace wrote:
I didn't want to take SkunkBig's "The Word of God" thread down a rabbit trail it wasn't meant to follow, so I started this thread instead. GraceandPeace wrote what you see above, and while I am not in disagreement with what she said, I am wondering how she (and many others who believe what she does) decide which parts of the Bible are inspired by God, and which parts aren't ..
Thanks!

Scripture refers to Jesus as "the Word" in John 1:1.
Christians often also refer to the Bible as "the Word" for various reasons - from considering it to be infallible & inerrant word from God in every regard (not my view), to considering the texts as inspired by God though not necessarily inerrant, etc.
