WHAT WE BELIEVE-- THE BIBLE
WE BELIEVE THAT THE SCRIPTURES CONTAINED IN THE TWO TESTAMENTS ARE THE DIVINELY INSPIRED WORD OF GOD,INERRANT,AND A PERFECT AND COMPLETE WORK . WE ALSO BELIEVE THAT THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN BY HOLY MEN OF OLD(2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17,2 PETER 1:19-21 ),WHO WERE LED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT;THAT IT IS A COLLECTION OF SIXTY-SIX BOOKS,FROM GENESIS TO REVELATIONS;THAT IT IS TRUTH WITHOUT ANY MIXING OF ERROR IN ITS CONTENT;AND THEREFORE IS,AND SHALL REMAIN,THE ONLY COMPLETE REVELATION OF THE WRITTEN WILL AND WORD OF GOD;WHICH ALL MATTERS OF FAITH,PRACTICE,CONDUCT,CREEDS AND OPINIONS SHOULD BE COMPARED TO AND TRIED FOR ACCURACY.FURTHER,WE BELIEVE THAT GOD,THROUGH MEN,AUTHORED THE ORIGINAL WORK,AND THAT HE HAS PRESERVED HIS WORD DOWN THROUGH THE AGES.
