We believe that the Holy Bible is the preserved revelation of God’s will to man. We also affirm it to be the inspired Word of God, given to us by our Creator to be a “lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path.” (Psalm 119:105)
We further assert that the Scriptures are a sacred revelation, written by men inspired by the Holy Spirit, and that its contents are without error in all that they attest. It is therefore the standard by which all human conduct, creeds, and opinions should be tried — and, as Christians, is our final authority for faith and practice (Isaiah 8:20).
Holding fast this truth, that “all Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16), we strive to study (2 Timothy 2:15) and obey its precepts (John 14:15).
By this, we may grow in faith (Romans 10:17), wisdom (Proverbs 1:7), and spiritual strength (Matthew 4:4; Luke 4:4) — through our knowledge of and adherence to its tenets (Luke 6:46).
