The
Holy Scripture is the Word of God. It consists of books written by people inspired by the Holy
Spirit to show God at work in nature and history and to set forth the life and teachings of Jesus and to proclaim the Good
News of the Kingdom for all people.
“All scripture
is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, so that everyone
who belongs to God may be proficient, equipped for every good work.”
– 2 Timothy 3:16-17
