Human Errors in the Bible?

The Bible was written by human authors . . . but inspired by the Holy Spirit. It’s the only book written by both humans and God himself.

Now, are there errors in the Bible because it was recorded by men?

Well, the Bible says it’s flawless and is God-breathed. It doesn’t carry human authority but that of God himself. And God cannot lie. So, the Bible can’t have errors because the ultimate author isn’t a fallible man—it’s the infallible God.

Those who believe there’re errors in the Bible are putting themselves as the authority over God’s Word. Instead, we should submit to God’s Word, understanding that alleged errors are just that . . . alleged.
