Inerrancy has been much more of an issue in American evangelicalism than in British [[evangelicalism]].<ref>{{cite web|last1=Crisp|first1=Oliver D.|title=A British Perspective on Evangelicalism|url=https://fullermag.fuller.edu/british-perspective-evangelicalism/|website=Fuller Magazine|publisher=[[Fuller Theological Seminary]]|accessdate=18 April 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160328014642/https://fullermag.fuller.edu/british-perspective-evangelicalism/|archive-date=2016-03-28|url-status=dead}}</ref> According to Stephen R.

A minority of biblical inerrantists go further than the Chicago Statement, arguing that the original text has been perfectly preserved and passed down through time. "[[Textus Receptus]] onlyism" holds that the Greek text of this name (Latin for received text) is a perfect and inspired copy of the original and supersedes earlier manuscript copies. The [[King James Only movement]] ascribes manifest inerrancy today only to the [[King James Version|King James English translation]] made from the Textus Receptus.
