These two quotations from the Nichols' book I thought would be worth highlighting. They are both by Warfield, the first along with Charles Hodge in their book on inspiration and the second from 1893 on the real problem of inspiration.
“it is not in the first instance a principle fundamental to the truth of the Christian religion."
"We found the whole Christian system on the doctrine of plenary inspiration as little as we found it upon the doctrine of angelic existences."
"We found the whole Christian system on the doctrine of plenary inspiration as little as we found it upon the doctrine of angelic existences."
I find myself partly resisting the idea and I'm sure many a Christian would struggle with it I dare say but it is surely correct.
