"...Bible, so rich in symbolism, is itself a symbol...It is a sovereign symbol of the Book of Faith, the Will of God as man has learned it in midst of the years...Thus, by the very honor which Masonry pays to the Bible, it teaches us to revere every book of faith...joining hands with the man of Islam as he takes oath on the Koran, and with the Hindu as he makes covenant with God upon the book that he loves best" (Joseph Fort Newton, The Bible in Masonry, p. 5).The Bible calls itself "God-Breathed" in the writings of St. Paul. It means it is inspired, inerrant and infallible. It is the very essence of divine truth. It is not merely a symbol of God's will but to train men and women in faith and knowledge and practical righteousness and good works (2 Timothy 3:15-16).
This blog web site is for the in-depth, sound and basic exegetical study of the Bible in Reformed apologetics; that is, I shall expound upon the inerrant and infallible Word of God, the Holy Scriptures. There shall be biblical studies in world religions and non-Christian cults. I also quote and research reformed writers and I am happy to study from them. May the Lord bless everyone who reads this blog with spiritual riches in Christ which is His imputed merit by faith alone.

In Freemasonry, is the Bible infallible and inerrant?
The Bible is revered by Freemasons; however, it is not considered infallible or inerrant. The Bible is nothing more than a symbol of the divine and sacred will of God. The Bible, however, is no more divine than any other book in ancient religion.
