Bible Criticism as a Sport

Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church. (1 Corinthians 14:34-35).

Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine.... (1 Timothy 5:23).

In what sense can we say that the Bible is inerrant?    Bible criticism has a defense  and an offense. When we say the Bible is inerrant, this is a statement from the defense. When we say that the Bible is full of life, wisdom, and truth; we speak from the offense.  The more I hear Bible defense, the more my anxiety is aroused.  The more I participate in Bible offense, the more my faith is strengthened. It is for this reason I seldom engage in defense of the Bible rather than joining in a strong offense.
