Is there room in the church for a "flexible inerrancy," in which the Gospel writers adapted and invented sayings of Jesus according to their theological interests? For example, is it within the bounds of inerrancy to conclude that Jesus never said the words, "I thirst," although that sentiment captures his goals? These questions are at the root of a big debate within the evangelical church. And today, we have Dr. Michael Licona and Dr. John West to discuss these issues and more. Without insulting one side or the other, please let us know what you think about the ISSUES and why.
