Concerning the Inerrancy of Scripture

We Believe...

That the Scripture is the very Word of God written.  Since God can neither lie, be mistaken, nor change, his Word cannot contain error.  Therefore, Scripture is inerrant.

That Scripture's Authority extends to all that it teaches.  Once the actual teachings of Scripture are ascertained, they bind our consciences, our Theories, and our behavior.  They take precedence over any rival claims to knowledge.

That God's Special Revelation in the Bible is compatible in every respect with his general revelation in nature.  Human interpretations of general revelation, however, must submit to the authority of special revelation.

That Scriptures Primary Subject is the message of redemption from sin through Jesus Christ.  But all Scripture's subject matter is God's Word and is, therefore, always true.

That the Infallibility of Scripture necessarily implies the Inerrancy of Scripture.

II Timothy 3:16; II Peter 1:20, 21; Mark 13:31; Revelation 22:18; Belgic Confession Articles 3 & 7.
