    I disagree. As stated, I take Martin Luther's position on this topic.

    I believe progressive theology dangerous to the Church (if the Bible is not a revolution from God then it cannot be infallible. It is just a good book.

    Neither Luther or Calvin stated that there was a derives inspiration to any translation, as they both saw the ultimate form would be the Originals, and then the Hebrew and Greek texts!

    I am not saying God inspired translations. But I am saying that Luther and Calvin were both correct that we have God's inspired Word.

    Brother, textual criticism deals with the text that we do have. We do not have the originals. Textual criticism does not confirm non-existent text. And it does not determine divine inspiration.

    Infallible word, not inspired!

    We know that the Spirit inspired the Originals, and we have Hebrew and Greek source texts extremely close to them!
