Baptists, Lutherans, several/most denominations of Presbyterians, Methodists – they typically claim to hold to inspired and infallible. Argument over whether or not they do so CORRECTLY, is part of what separates into denominations, but they would agree with our first article.

I’m don’t think abuse is caused so much by a non-inspired or non-inerrant opinion of scripture as it is by a desire to have Scripture prove that a particular view is correct, or because of poor training in the areas he mentioned. I think that’s more along the lines of what Brauch wrote (at least based on the excerpt you include here).
