Most copyist variants are mere matters of spelling and style and as such are easily discernible. When the text was altered by copyists, no essential teaching of the faith was compromised. The sheer volume of extant manuscripts is more than sufficient to retrieve the original message of the authors. While fundamentalists on the left, such as Bart Ehrman author of Misquoting Jesus: The Story Behind Who Changed the Bible and Why, obsess over their many errors, textual critics render them trite, trivial, and easy to resolve.

What does inerrancy of the Scriptures mean?

Inerrancy means free from error or untruth. This means the Bible has no errors and is true.Answer/What is meant is that there are no errors in the Scriptures - which is impossible when men are responsible for the production of Scriptures, because mankind is not free from error.Scriptures can be assessed by sects as being exempt of error, and in their belief of an inspired halo effect claim inerrancy. Suchlike Christian sects reconcile text which is separate to the teachings of Jesus Christ and without merit assert that the text is proportional.Clement the disciple of Peter wrote: 'Holy Scriptures are the true words of the Holy Ghost, that there is nothing unjust or counterfeit in them'.When followers offer their thoughts to the teachings of Jesus Christ and are led by Him - for He is without error and lived his whole life in this world without error - the Holy Scriptures become their fortification, and they avail themselves with the attainability to discern text of which is inerrant and Holy, within the Scriptures.
