Brian McLaren's answer to a question about the Bible's inerrancy.

Brian McLaren: Questions from July, 2005:

"First, I’m quite certain you’ve never heard me say that the Bible is full of errors or anything like that. You may be referring to the fact that I don’t like to use the term “inerrancy” – but there are a number of reasons for that. Here’s one problem I have with the term: when people claim inerrancy for the Bible, they often don’t realize they also imply that they have access to the Bible free of any interpretation, and sometimes they seem to imply that their interpretations are inerrant. My concern is not with faults in the Bible, but rather with flaws in the way we interpret the Bible. I agree – God can do anything, and so there’s no reason to exclude miracles. I firmly believe that with God, all things are possible." (Emphasis added.)
