The Bible—For What It’s Worth: Three Passages of Wisdom
John Shelby Spong has written a wonderful new book called "The Sins of Scripture." In it he takes issue with those who claim the Bible is inerrant, and literally true, word for word. I share that view. But I still have found my Truth in those pages. I share them with you here. No matter your take on the Bible, these passages will enlighten. They can't help it. I'm sure you'll agree. Read on. . . fundamentalism • biblical inerrancy • new thought • liberal theology • bible
