Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy 6

What do Christians mean when they say the Bible is inerrant? The Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy tells us what leading inerrantist mean by inerrancy. I’ll be posting a section of this statement each week until I’ve posted the whole thing.

You can read previously posted sections of this statement in by clicking here. After a preface and a short statement, the Chicago Statement contains a section called Articles of Affirmation and Denial.


Article IV.

We affirm that God who made mankind in His image has used language as a means of revelation.  

We deny that human language is so limited by our creatureliness that it is rendered inadequate as a vehicle for divine revelation. We further deny that the corruption of human culture and language through sin has thwarted God’s work of inspiration.

We discussed article by article the Chicago statement the past two weeks in the Wednesday night Bible study my pastor teaches. Good stuff!
