									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The author says that here are two ways that we discuss inerrancy. One is canonicity which we’ve already talked about. Canonicity is the rule or standard by which something is measured. Determining how many books belong in the Bible is a big, heavy issue.

That’s the other interesting thing. They didn’t take any doubtful books, none of them. They took only that which was unanimously accepted by the churches.

In terms of fulfillment, certainly inspiration guarantees the accuracy. Inspiration guarantees the accuracy. If there ever was anything that was not fulfilled, the Bible is not truthful then.

									<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There is early evidence of Greek translations of the Pentateuch (that’s the first five books of the Bible) that are more literal in their translation of the Hebrew, unlike the Septuagint.
