JP Moreland on a Wrong View of the Bible in Relation to Knowledge

J.P. Moreland recently delivered a paper at ETS on the problem of evangelical "overcommitment" to the Bible. That may sound strange or wrong, but it isn't. Please read his short description of his paper on his Kingdom Triangle blog and click to the full paper, which I just read and which I find superb and much-needed.

Hi Prof,

Am curious to know what you think about the recent proposal to expand the ETS doctrinal statement. The expanded version is about five times longer than the current version, I think.

I haven't followed this.

I have found that Christianity Today is just not a very scholarly magazine. I know, that is a shocker, but it is true. I ask why they even posted about this? I think they were more into the razzle dazzle sensationalism of the title, not the content.

I am sorry his excellent paper had to be torn up so much in a public setting. I agree with his assesment that the public can sometimes go wild with the statements and take it out of context.
