An Apologetic with a Borrowed Standard: How Guild Dependence Weakens the Defense of the Faith

Diplomatic and Eclectic Editions: Why the Old and New Testament Projects Are Not Identical

Confessional Bibliology will use infallibility for its positive confession of Holy Scripture. This is not permission for error. It is a deliberate commitment to the present, preserved, authentic Hebrew and Greek rule—and a refusal to let an autographic formula govern confessional language.

Confessional Bibliology Is Not KJV-Onlyism
Confessional Bibliology values the Authorized Version because of its fidelity to the received Hebrew and Greek texts, but it places every translation beneath those authentic originals.
