Bibliolatry description |
---|
Bibliolatry (from the Greek βιβλίον biblion, "book" and the suffix -λατρία -latria, "worship") is the worship of a book or the description of a deity found in a book. * In Christianity, "bibliolatry" is used to describe extreme devotion to the Bible or to biblical inerrancy. Supporters of biblical inerrancy point to passages (such as 2 Timothy 3:16–17) interpreted to say that the Bible, as received, is a complete source of what must be known about God. Critics of this view call it a form of idolatry, pointing to verses (such as John 5:39–40) to indicate that Jesus asked humanity to relate to God directly rather than seeking God's rules and spurning a relationship with the God who created them.Historical Christianity has never endorsed worship of the Bible, since worship is reserved for God. Some Christians believe that biblical authority derives from God as the inspiration of the text, not the text itself. The term does not refer to a belief, but may be used pejoratively to label the perceived practices of theological opponents. The groups to whom the term is most-often applied are Protestants of a fundamentalist and evangelical background who espouse biblical inerrancy and sola scriptura (scripture is the only divine authority). Whether the King James Only movement is a form of bibliolatry is disputed. |
