Description. Associated terms. Biblical Followers of many
religions believe that their own sacred texts are inerrant. This
is particularly true within the conservative wings of the
world's major religions. For |Fundamentalist and other
Evangelical Protestants generally believe the entire Bible to be
inerrant. Their belief in inerrancy is based, in part, on 2
Timothy 3:16 which states that the Scriptures are "God-
breathed."| |Muslims generally believe the Qur'an to be dictated
to Muhammad by the archangel Gabriel, with words that came from
Allah. Thus, it is inerrant.| |Members of the Baha'i Faith
believe that the writings of their founder, Baha'u'llah, are
inerrant.| However, there are exceptions. For example: |The
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints recognizes four
canonized scriptures: the Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine and
Covenants, and the Pearl of Great Price. Many Mormons consider
them to be inerrant in their original form: However, the Church
does not teach that the Bible is the Will of God.
