Paul Was Not An Inerrantist

some signatories to the '78 Chicago Statement
Otherwise why try to persuade?

James McGrath, here:


"[Paul] doesn’t simply make statements of fact, or issue commands. He seeks to persuade. He corrects himself at times. He writes like we would expect a human being writing letters to write, not as we would expect God causing his words to flow through a human vessel to write."

------------------------------------------

Or why the need to add to Paul with creeds, confessions and systematic theologies if Paul is the sine qua non or the terminus ad quem?
