Bible Doctrine 101: The Origin and Authority of the Scriptures (The Holy Bible)

Posted by ProliferatingTruth on March 5, 2010

The Origin and Authority of the Scriptures (The Holy Bible)

The Bible is authoritative and sufficient for all the needs of man. It consists of the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments, as they were originally written.

The Bible, in the original manuscripts, was verbally and plenarily inspired, and is the product of Spirit-controlled men. Therefore, it is infallible and inerrant in all matters of which it speaks.

It is the true center of Christian unity, and it is the supreme standard by which  all human conduct, creeds, and opinions are to be tried.

Proof Texts

2 Timothy 3:16-17 – "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17  That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works."

2 Peter 1:19-21 – "We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts: 20  Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. 21  For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost."

Statement of Faith

Posted by ProliferatingTruth on February 26, 2010

A Statement of Faith

I. The Scriptures
We believe in the authority and sufficiency of the Holy Bible, consisting of the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testaments, as originally written; that it was verbally and plenarily inspired and is the product of Spirit-controlled men, and therefore is infallible and inerrant in all matters of which it speaks.
We believe the Bible to be the true center of Christian unity and the supreme standard by which all human conduct, creed and opinions shall be tried.

2 Timothy 3:16, 17; 2 Peter 1:19-21.

II. The True God
We believe there is one and only one living and true God, an infinite Spirit, the Maker and supreme Ruler of Heaven and earth; inexpressibly glorious in holiness, and worthy of all possible honor, confidence and love; that in the unity of the Godhead there are three persons, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, equal in every divine perfection and executing distinct but harmonious offices in the great work of redemption.

Exodus 20:2, 3; 1 Corinthians 8:6; Revelation 4:11.
