The Holy Scriptures


We believe that the Bible is the verbally inspired word of God, that it was written by men who were divinely and uniquely inspired, and that it is without error in its original writing. It is complete, absolutely trustworthy, and has supreme authority in all matters of Christian faith and conduct. 2 Tim. 3:15-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21; John 16:12-13; Rev. 22:18-19
