Default Re: Is The Bible Inerrant?

We believe the Scripture is without error. The next step is to define "error." Clearly it cannot mean that every quote is recorded exactly as it was made, because the same incidents are quoted differently in the different Gospels.

That, perhaps, gives us some clue as how to regard the Scripture. You can created doctrines out of the differences, as with Lee's baffling kingdom of heaven/kingdom of God dichotomy. Or you can do what I prefer to do--take it as a sign to not quibble over words, but to step back and get the bigger picture.
