Write down your ideas about how the Bible is inspired. How might this have happened?
Automatic Writing Dictation Theory Verbal Plenary Inspiration Illuminated by Holy Spirit Inspired and Thoroughly Human Devotional text Religious Classic
How much was directly from God? How much was distinctly human? How would we know?
The human author becomes possessed by God and loses consciousness of self, surrendering to the divine spirit and its communicatory powers.
The Holy Spirit predetermined each word that the authors wrote. The authors were thus performing the function of secretary.
The authors expressed their thoughts in their own style and words, while the Holy Spirit only intervened as needed, in order to keep them from making mistakes.
Authors inspired by Spirit so their normal powers of observation and writing were heightened. Called ‘inspiration by illumination’. Not inerrant.
‘Both-and’ in the way of the incarnation of Christ. Fully human and fully divine. A largest percent of Presbyterians (48%) opted for this choice of their view of inspiration in a poll done in the 1980s
Portions of the Bible, including some of its theological and ethical positions, may not be the inspired word of God. Examples: Slavery, Levitical Laws, Women Silent in Church
The Bible speaks only to individual salvation and private piety . It is to be used for my own private devotions only.
The view that the Bible is “great literature”: no more, no less. Not inspired, not inerrant.

All of these focus upon the AUTHORSHIP of the Bible. Paradigm shift in the 1960s to Scripture as normative witness to Christ. The Bible is a MEANS rather than the END, of the process of inspiration.
A focus NOT on Facts But on WITNESS And on Christ, The Living WORD.
