Herschel Hobbs
President, Southern Baptist Convention
Chairman, Baptist Faith and Message Committee (1963)
Infallible
has two meanings; one is "without error" the other that
"it fulfills its intended function." A dull knife can
be an infallible knife if you use it to cut butter. You will weaken
the statement by putting in that word. I know it's your pet word,
and it's the pet word of a lot of people, but it isn't as strong
as the words "without any mixture of error."
--from Interview Concerning Hobbs' Defense of Baptist Faith and
Message Wording on the Bible
