We affirm the Divine inspiration,
truthfulness, and authority of both the Old
and New Testament Scriptures, in their
entirety, as the only written Word of God,
without error in all that it affirms, and
the only infallible rule of life, faith, and
practice.
We also affirm the power of God’s Word to
accomplish His purpose of salvation. The
message of the Bible is addressed to all
mankind, for God‘s revelation in Christ and
in Scripture is unchangeable. Through it,
the Holy Spirit still speaks today. He
illuminates the minds of God’s people in
every culture to preserve its truth freshly
through their own eyes. Jesus Christ is the
image of the invisible God, which is to say,
He is Himself truly God. He took upon
Himself our nature, being conceived by the
Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He
died on the cross as a substitutionary
sacrifice for the sins of the world. He
arose from the dead in the body in which He
was crucified. He ascended into heaven in
that glorified body, where He is now, our
interceding High Priest.
