The uniqueness of the scriptures is based on their origin and source. The Bible writers were not responsible for what they wrote but they were given the words to write from God. God gave the writers revelations, which allowed them to understand what they were writing.
The Holy Spirit (see chapter 2 the God Head) instructed the writers to not only put to pen the events of the day but to also write the things that were to come about even though they themselves would never live to see their predictions fulfilled.
Are the scriptures accurate? It is clear that while the ancient manuscripts vary, the essential truths have been preserved. While it is possible that copyists and translators of the Bible made minor mistakes, evidence from biblical archaeology reveals that many alleged errors were really misunderstandings on the part of the scholars.
Some of these problems arose because people were reading biblical history through western eyes. In spite of attempts to destroy it, the Bible has been preserved with amazing, even miraculous, accuracy. Comparison of the dead sea scrolls with later manuscripts of the old testament demonstrates the carefulness with which it has been transmitted. They confirm the trustworthiness and reliability of the scriptures as the infallible revelation of God’s will.
