Answer 4

Well, **generally speaking**, any sect identified as "fundamentalist" accepts everything in the bible as factual.

It is important to note that there are **several** sects of Baptists, and that one of the doctrines generally held by Baptists is that personal interpretation *must* be permitted.  This means (quite logically) that *not* all Baptists accept the bible as wholly factual.

Indeed, it is rather vague to speak of "the Baptist faith".

At the other extreme (in a manner of speaking) from fundamentalism is the Roman Catholic (RC) doctrine, which teaches only that "the bible is free from doctrinal error".  What this means is that the bible is 100% true with regard to what you are required to believe and on morality, but that the validity of individual historical accounts is left to the individual.  This is not as "open" as might first seem:  for example, RCs are required to believe such things as the virgin birth, the resurrection of Jesus, etc. all of which come under the heading of "doctrine."  However, RCs are *not* required to believe in 7 24-hour days of creation - only that God did, indeed, create everything.  The RCs probably have one of the *loosest* teachings with regard to the "factuality" of biblical accounts, but clearly this does *not* extend to doctrine (e.g. RCs do not permit women to have religious authority over men in the congregation, do not permit homosexual church leaders, etc. in accordance with scriptural doctrine).  Before I get comments on homosexual leaders in the RC church - individuals can defy doctrine, leaders included.  BTW, I am *not* RC.

In my experience, the following sects value the bible as completely true

United Pentecostal

Assembly of God

Church of Christ

These, by their violation of certain clear biblical teachings, do not

Anglican Communion (but those desiring to adhere more closely to the word are considering a split)

United Methodist

Presbyterian (I believe Missouri Synod)

Church of the Nazarene

many Baptist sects (for example, Trinitarian Baptist)
