These are the same statements Bro. Schaap is saying HAC believes.
Statement about Bible Translations
Bob Jones University position
Although Bob Jones University does not hold to a King James Only position, we continue to hold the widely-used King James Version (KJV) as the campus standard in the classroom and in the chapel pulpit. The position of the University on the translation issue has not changed since the founding of the school in 1927.
We believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of the Bible in the original manuscripts, and we believe that God has supernaturally preserved every one of His inspired words for us today. However, from the founder to the present administration, we have never taken the position that there can be only one good translation in the English language.
WHY NOT PENSACOLA CHRISTIAN COLLEGE?
Pensacola Christian College position
• We believe that the Bible is the verbally inspired and infallible, authoritative Word of God and that God gave the
words of Scripture by inspiration without error in the original autographs.
God promises that He will preserve His Word; Jesus said, “but my words shall not pass away”—Matt. 24:35. We believe God has kept that promise by preserving His infallible Word in the traditional Hebrew and Greek manuscripts and that the Authorized Version (KJV) is an accurate English translation of the preserved Word of God.
After all the battles over the Bible, it is hard to believe that HAC is teaching the same thing as Bob Jones and Pensacola.
