Concerning the Bible
- The Bible is the written form, God breathed, absolute divine authoritative and inspired word. In this written form we have everything our Triune God wants us to know about Him, and what He expects of us to live a holy and separate life in this present world.
II 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:
That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
Revelation 22:18-19
For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
John 20:9
For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
John 1:1-2, 14
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
Revelation 19:13
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
