Is Scripture Inspired by God

All scripture is given by inspiration of God. This is what theologians are referring to when they talk about the “inspiration” of Scripture: the idea that God “breathed into” the biblical writers.

Is the Bible really inspired by God?

“All Scripture was given by inspiration of God” (KJV and NKJV). Many of the revised or newer translations that have come about over the last century were closer to the original Greek text, but still retain the word “inspired.” For example, “All Scripture is inspired by God” (NRSV, NASB, HCSB, and several others).

What do we mean when we say all Scripture is inspired by God?

To suggest that the text is as much a human creation as a divine one does not make one less faithful in one’s belief in God. … In fact, the texts of scripture actually give more evidence of human involvement in their production than they do of divine inspiration.
