Biblical Inerrancy
What is inspiration? -- does it mean God dictated the Scriptures?
Why do we not have inerrant copies of the Bible? -- doctrinal statements say that only the originals of the Bible were inerrant, but couldn't God have preserved perfect copies?
How was the NT canon formed? -- was it a random process, or one fixed by people in power?
