The Bible is the Word of God - it is unique - unlike any other book. It's a rich library of 66 books, from over 40 different divinely inspired writers, across a 1600 years time span. 2 Peter 1:19-21 We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed... holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

INSPIRATION - 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Every word in the Bible is inspired; verbal inspiration, and the Book is fully inspired; plenary inspiration.

The Bible has an amazing UNITY and CONTUNUITY - a united theme from beginning to end. It has one doctrinal system and plan of salvation, one program. The Doctrine of the Bible is progressively presented. The seeds of most Bible doctrines are found in Genesis. With each additional book comes further revelation and amplification of these truths which consummate in the last book of the Bible, the Book of Revelation.

INERRANCY - The Bible is inerrant and infallible. Inerrant means it is true – free from error. It is infallible - wholly trustworthy regarding its truth.

This book contains: the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. Its doctrine is holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true...
