Dr. Gregg Allison's "Historical Theology, Chap. 5: Inerrancy," 99ff.


Chapter 5. Inerrancy, 99-119—the Bible is inerrant, completely true and without error in all that it affirms. Dr. Allison deals with inerrancy in the early Church, the Middle Ages, the Reformation and Post-Reformation periods and the modern period. As for the early Church, Jewish rabbis, the apostles, Jesus, Clement of Rome, Justin Martyr, Hippolytus, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Origen, Theophilus, Athanasius, Chrysostom and, notably, Augustine are enlisted with copious citations from their works in support of the historic, catholic and apostolic view. The Middle Ages reflected the same views and inheritances—Anselm, Hervaeus Natalias, Alexander of Hales and Aquinas as well. Peter Abelard is singled out as an outlier—with his "Sic et Non" hermeneutic. Peter does the “yes and no” on the issue like other matters.
