Chicago Statements on Biblical Inerrancy and Hermeneutics

Out of two summits come the Chicago Statements of Biblical Inerrancy and Biblical Hemeneutics. Listed below are the Preface and Articles for each of these statements.

"The Chicago Statement is the most widely accepted definition of biblicial inerrancy in the evangelical world. President Patterson and Dean Bush were a part of the group that formulated the document and both were among the original signers of the statement. Only the Abstract of Principles stands as an official doctrinal confession of the seminary, but by common consent and as a testimony to our students and our supporting churches, we publish and acknowledge the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy."
