I know many of you would say "What about the Bible?" The Bible says this, the Bible says that, the Bible is the inspired Word of God. I think the Bible is the inspired word of man - about God, and some of that is now expired.

Carlton Pearson

With so many contradictory renditions of the biblical text, the public has lost confidence that we can actually know what the Bible says. It is an easy step from this skepticism to an indifference about what the Bible says.

Leland Ryken

The Bible itself is a book that constantly must be wrestled with and re-interpreted. ... Bible interpretation is colored by historical context, the reader's bias and current realities. The more you study the Bible, the more questions it raises. It is not possible to simply do what the Bible says.

Rob Bell

The inerrancy debate is based on the belief that the Bible is the word of God, that the Bible is true because God made it and gave it to us as a guide to truth. But that's not what the Bible says.

Doug Pagitt

A weak understanding of what the Bible says about sin is tied to a weak understanding of what the Bible says is achieved by the cross.

D. A. Carson

We don't ask what the Bible says, we ask what God says to us in that Bible. The difference is a difference between paper and person.

Scot McKnight

You can find justification for slavery in the Bible. Some say this is what the Bible says and that closes the argument.

Desmond Tutu

The Bible says somewhere that we are desperately selfish. I think we would have discovered that fact without the Bible.

Abraham Lincoln

The truly wise man is he who believes the Bible against the opinions of any man. If the Bible says one thing, and any body of men says another, the wise man will decide, "This book is the Word of him who cannot lie".

R. A. Torrey

When you look at the Bible, and I read the Bible very seriously, for a lot of my life, I believed the Bible ordained the death penalty, and the Bible seemed to be very clear about that. But the more I look, the more troubled I became because it's not that simple. In the Bible, there's some 30 death-worth crimes, like working on the Sabbath, or disrespecting your parents. Are we that fundamental that we should bring back that death penalty?

Shane Claiborne

I think that as Christians we want to think Christianly, and that means that we want what the Bible says as a rule for life and living to impact every aspect of our life. The Bible informs us of such issues and we need to as Christians do what a first century church did and that is realize that we are not living to be politically correct, popular, or prosperous, but we 're living with eternity in mind.

Hank Hanegraaff

I'd usually read the Bible a lot. Read little short Bible stories. And today, whenever I give speeches, I bring up a few of those Bible stories, because those are inspirations to me.

Herschel Walker

The Bible says we must choose two ways of life.

Billy Graham

The Bible says that you marry for life, okay. It's a lifetime decision.

Si Robertson

[The Bible] has to be interpreted. And if it isn’t interpreted, then it can’t be put into action. So if we are serious about following God, then we have to interpret the Bible. It is not possible to simply do what the Bible says. We must first make decisions about what it means at this time, in this place, for these people.

Rob Bell

The Bible says forgive your debtors; the world says "sue them for their dough."

Billy Sunday
