The "doctrine of the inerrancy of scripture"<ref>[http://www.scotthahn.com/download/attachment/2516 Cardinal Augustin Bea, "Vatican II and the Truth of Sacred Scripture"] {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120508175506/http://www.scotthahn.com/download/attachment/2516 |date=2012-05-08 }}</ref> held by the [[Catholic Church]], as expressed by the [[Second Vatican Council]], is that, "The books of Scripture must be acknowledged as teaching solidly, faithfully and without error that truth which God wanted put into sacred writings for the sake of salvation."<ref name=DV11/>
Inerrancy has been much more of an issue in American [[Evangelicalism in the United States|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]] |access-date=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 inerrancy only to the [[King James Version|King James English translation]] made from the ''Textus Receptus''.
