Council on Biblical Inerrancy

The Council on Biblical Inerrancy was a group of evangelical Christian scholars and leaders formed in 1978 to affirm the belief that the Bible is without error in all its teachings, including history and science. Its goal was to clarify that scripture is trustworthy and authoritative in matters of faith and practice, while allowing for the use of scholarly methods to understand its context. The council emphasized that the Bible's divine inspiration ensures its accuracy, guiding believers in moral and spiritual truth without compromising historical or scientific integrity.
