Now all you need do is Define what it means to be inspired by the Holy Spirit. Then take that definition and see if it lines up with what you seem to think it to mean.
Or bottom line does inspiration of the Holy Spirit in an indivisual mean one is perfect as God is perfect in everything that person says and does?
Without a doubt Paul was inspired by the Holy Spirit. So the question then becomes does Paul ever make a mistake in anything he has said or done in or for the church while being Spirit Inspired? If he admits to being in error then Spirit Inspiration does not mean one then becomes perfect as God is Perfect. It simply means one is lead by God. Just as we can lead a horse to water we can not make him drink it. Maybe that is why the bible itself never claims to be without error.
Thanks for admitting ........you..........like every other christian??.........don't have a clue.......and are just winging it
what makes you think I am winging anything? Because I did not give you the answer you thought I should give? Have you considered the fact that I am right and the bible does not claim to be perfect? That maybe doctrine of biblical infalliblity was born out of the reformation movement 5 hundred years ago to undercut papal authority on the church?
The bible never claims to be infalliable, it simply claims to be the true word of God. again the bible is not a text book, it is a set of instructions on how to find God. it's 'truth' is verified in following the turn by turn instructions and finding God as promised. Not in debate.
