Inerrant means that every word of the Bible is true. Do you believe that?

Voice, I grew up from diapers indoctrinated that the Bible is the inerrant inspired word of God. And that didn't change in the local church.
But since then I've learned that there are more variations in the Greek manuscripts than there are words in the New Testament. And to me just one variation is enough to call its inerrancy into question.
Yet I'm told by my Southern Baptist family that God protected His word down thru the ages.
But the evidence in the over 5000 manuscripts prove that fails to hold true.
