If it's not inerrant, then it's not the word of God. The word of God can always be trusted every word to be true, accurate, and in all of it's historical and doctrinal content.
I've had lost people tell me they will not believe in the account of Jesus Christ because of all the inaccuracies and contradictions from one bible to another. Confusion creates unbelief.

The Bible says that every word of God is pure (Prov 30:5,6). Which means tested, refined, and found free from from every defect, including error. Therefore Christ said that man shall not live by bread alone but by EVERY WORD that proceeds out of the mouth of God (Mt 4:4). If there were errors in the Bible, it could not be regarded as the Word of God.
You are mixing terms.
Book in your hands is not "the word of God".
Book in your hands is a print of translation of critically compared edition of handmade copies of manuscripts of collection of some Scriptures.
This is just reality. Its how it is. Your book did not fall from heaven in some kind of perfect, inerrant state.
Scriptures are sometimes direct quotations of God, sometimes personal additions (Bring me my cloak I left in Troas), sometimes history (containing many evil things) etc.
Jesus Christ is the word of God.
And you continually make a meal out of all these "contradictions" that you see. It's people like you who exacerbate unbelief by helping to spread rumours that the bible is "corrupt".
There is no inconsistancy in the message of salvation. Show them this is what's important.
As for these lost critics, if one cannot trust all that is written, it is very difficult to believe a portion of it. One Bible would create unity among the brethren, as far as, the validity of the text and it's truth.
This is just laughable. Who's talking about "our books"? So explain what Jesus said inerrantly in Matthew 4:4.
Seeds sewn on rocks, then, but sewn nonetheless. And you mean One Version, right? Ain't falling for it.
"Our books" - Your KJV OT, my Septuagint OT, your KJV NT, my UBS NT... these are not inerrant.
Mt 4:4 is not about our Bibles. Our Bibles have not come from the mouth of God, but from many men, translators, editors etc.
So according to you there is no written Word of God. Have you joined the ranks of the theological liberals?
So faith comes by hearing Jesus Christ and not by believing the Bible?
I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth;Deut 18:18
Do you believe that Jesus Christ was born of the flesh?
It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. John 6:63
So does the word come from the flesh or the Spirit?
For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe.
1 Thess 2:13
Am not understanding how you praise The Messiah the Christ the son of Mary , while He himself praised Jehovah and called the Lost Sheep of the House of Israel to do the same ,,,I see that you reject much of the O/T but you are even rejecting the N/T in preference to the teachings 14 letters of Saul ,,, In my studies it's appears that the people whom He [ Jesus ] was sent to and attended his gathering thought he was a prophet as seem here
Matthew 21:11
And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. [
And the multitude said, This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee. [
Matthew 14:5
And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet. [
And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet. [
Matthew 11:9
But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet ] .. MANY YEARS BEFORE THE CLAIM THAT HE WAS A GOD OR
THE SON OF GOD ...
