  • The Concept of Biblical Inspiration
    THE CONCEPT OF BIBLICAL INSPIRATION When the President of your Society graciously asked me to read a paper on the topic of biblical inspiration, he proposed that I review and assess the significant contributions made to it in con- temporary research, and that I suggest some areas in which work might profitably be done in the future. Accordingly, I shall simply devote the time at our disposal to these two points. With regard to the first, I believe that many new insights have been provided during the last decade by the studies of Pierre Benoit,1 Joseph Coppens,2 Karl Rahner,3 and Bernhard Brink- mann; * and I shall attempt to present their work in summary form. As regards further possible theological speculation, I wish to amplify a suggestion made recently by my colleague, the Reverend R. A. F. MacKenzie. "Since the theory of instrumental causality has been so usefully developed, and has done so much to clarify—up to a point—the divine-human collaboration in this mysterious and won- derful work, what is needed next is fuller investigation of the efficient and final causalities, which went to produce an OT or NT book." B You will have observed that, since the days of Franzelin and La- grange,6 treatises on inspiration have tended to emphasize the *Paul Synave-Pierre Benoit, La Prophétie, Éditions de la Revue des Jeunes, Paris-Tournai-Rome, 1947. Benoit has a shorter essay on inspiration in Robert-Tricot, Initiation Biblique? Paris, 1954, 6-45; for further modifi- cations of his theory, cf. "Note complémentaire sur l'inspiration," Revue Bib- lique 63 (1956) 416-422.

  • Divine Inspiration and the Word of God
    Divine Inspiration and the Word of God Is the nature of the Bible that of propositional or personal revelation? Do you believe in the verbal/plenary theory of inspiration or the dynamic theory? Read and discover! Introduction Inspiration. The word is used in various ways today. “Patrick is such an inspiration to us all.” “The artist searched in vain for inspiration in order to paint again.” “You will fi nd that book in our ‘Inspirational’ section on the left.” “Notre Dame is playing some inspired foot- ball in the second half.” “Hamlet’s soliloquy on death is truly an inspired work of art and human psychol- ogy.” But none of these uses of the word matches the meaning of inspiration as a doctrine about Scripture in Christian theology. There is a huge difference between community of faith. Every part of the Bible—its sto- declaring that we are inspired by Psalm 23 and declar- ries, its laws, its songs, its proverbs, its sayings, and its ing that Psalm 23 is the inspired word of God. The for- instructions—can be reduced to a set of propositions, or mer depends upon our understanding; the latter lies in doctrines (teachings) about God and God’s will for the the nature of Scripture itself. It is this latter claim that community of faith. constitutes the subject of this study. The other view of the Bible begins with a defi nition of rev- elation that is somewhat complex. It says the Bible does The Bible and Revelation not reveal a body of propositions about God but rather There are two basic interpretations of what it means to reveals the very person of God.

  • A Middle Knowledge Perspective on Biblical Inspiration
    'Men Moved By The Holy Spirit Spoke From God' (2 Peter 1.21): A Middle Knowledge Perspective on Biblical Inspiration William Lane Craig Used by permission of Philosophia Christi NS 1 (1999): 45-82. SUMMARY Scriptural inspiration has traditionally been understood by Christian theologians to be plenary, verbal, and confluent. But how is the plenary, verbal inspiration of Scripture compatible with Scripture's being a truly divine-human product? How can one hold to the verbal inspiration of the whole of Scripture without lapsing into a dictation theory of inspiration which, in effect, extinguishes the human author? A theory of divine inspiration based upon God's middle knowledge is proposed, according to which God knew what the authors of Scripture would freely write when placed in certain circumstances. By arranging for the authors of Scripture to be in the appropriate circumstances, God can achieve a Scripture which is a product of human authors and also is His Word. Such a theory is compared and contrasted with similar views expressed by Lessius and Wolterstorff. 'MEN MOVED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT SPOKE FROM GOD' (2 PETER 1.21): A MIDDLE KNOWLEDGE PERSPECTIVE ON BIBLICAL INSPIRATION Introduction The Church has traditionally affirmed that the Bible is inspired by God and is therefore God’s Word to mankind, authoritative in all that it teaches. The deeper appreciation of the role of the human authors in the composition of the books of the Bible, which dawned during the Enlightenment, put a question mark behind the claim that the Bible is God’s Word. How could the Scriptures be at once the Word of God and the word of man? In this paper I shall argue that the doctrine of divine “middle knowledge” (media scientia) provides the key to the resolution of this conundrum.

  • CHAPTER 4 DEFINITION of INSPIRATION Claim of Inspiration
    Theology 1: Revelation and Theological Method Western Reformed Seminary (www.wrs.edu) John A. Battle, Th.D. CHAPTER 4 DEFINITION OF INSPIRATION Claim of inspiration According to 2 Tim 3:16, “all Scripture” is “God-breathed,” or, as is normally translated, is “inspired by God.” The word “inspired” (qeo/pneustov theopneustos) is coined from two Greek words, qeo/v theos (God) and pne/w pneo (to breathe; cf. pneu^ma pneuma, often “spirit or Spirit,” but can be “breath,” as in 2 Thess 2:8). The term actually can be better understood as “breathed out.” Thus this passage teaches that the Bible is the product of the direct creative breath of God (cf. Gen 2:7; Ps 33:6). [For an excellent discussion of this passage, see B. B. Warfield, The Inspiration and Authority of the Bible, ch. 6, “God-Inspired Scripture.”] Likewise, 2 Pet 1:20-21 states that men “spoke from God” when they were making the prophecies of old. They did this “as they were being borne along (fero/menoi pheromenoi) by the Holy Spirit,” using the same term used of a sailing ship being carried by the wind (Acts 27:15). We note that this claim is made not for the writers themselves in all their various actions and statements, but for the Scripture. Peter, for example, was not correct in his actions in Antioch regarding table fellowship, and was rebuked by Paul (Gal 2). This claim is not even made for other writings these same authors may have produced. Paul, for example, wrote at least one other letter, not preserved in the canon of the NT (cf.

  • Bb Warfield's Path to Inerrancy
    WTJ 72 (2010): 23-42 B. B. WARFIELD’S PATH TO INERRANCY: AN ATTEMPT TO CORRECT SOME SERIOUS MISUNDERSTANDINGS PAUL HELM Upon the whole, I am inclined to think that the far greater part, if not all, of those difficulties which have hitherto amused philosophers, and blocked the way to knowl- edge, are entirely owing to ourselves. That we have first raised a dust, and then complain, we cannot see. (George Berkeley, 1688–1753, A Treatise Concerning Human Knowledge, Introduction *3) B. B. Warfield’s name will forever be linked to the exposition and defense of biblical inspiration, infallibility, and inerrancy. Inspiration, he says, is that extraordinary, supernatural influence (or, passively, the result of it,) exerted by the Holy Ghost on the writers of our Sacred Books, by which their words were rendered also the words of God, and therefore, perfectly infallible.1 He believed this to be the classic Christian view of Scripture. But around the man, and particularly around his defense of the infallibility and inerrancy of Scripture (he seems to have used these terms interchangeably), there has grown up a number of serious misconceptions. These have to do with what inerrancy is, with the theological method that allegedly spawned it, with the doctrine of God that lies behind it, and with the place of inspired and inerrant Scripture in Warfield’s theological system. Unfortunately, despite various valiant efforts to set the record straight, these misconceptions are repeated and embellished until the real Warfield is lost from view and the ‘‘Warfield position’’ becomes a whip- ping boy.2 This article is a further attempt to make clear Warfield’s position, and particularly his method of arriving at it.
