83 – Through Theology in a Year – The Inspiration of Scripture
byC. Michael Patton

In this session of Through Theology in a Year, we begin our study of one of the most foundational doctrines in all of Christianity: the inspiration of Scripture. What does it mean when Christians say the Bible is “God-breathed”? Does inspiration reside in the authors, the message, the readers, or the very words of Scripture itself? And why has this doctrine become such a defining issue within evangelical theology?

In this lesson, we examine the biblical meaning of inspiration, paying special attention to Paul’s use of the word theopneustos in 2 Timothy 3:16. We explore the major theories of inspiration, discuss where inspiration properly resides, and introduce the historic doctrine of Verbal Plenary Inspiration. Along the way, we consider the testimony of the early Church, the uniqueness of the Bible among all books ever written, and the implications of inspiration for biblical authority and trustworthiness.

Understanding inspiration is essential because it serves as the foundation for everything we believe about Scripture. Before we can discuss inerrancy, authority, interpretation, or application, we must first answer a more basic question: What exactly is the Bible, and how did it come to us?

Why do some translations sound more literal while others read more naturally? And what are translators actually trying to accomplish when they create a […]
