We believe that the Bible, composed of 66 books, is the fully inspired Word of God, written by appointed men of God, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, without error in the original manuscripts, and is our final authority in all matters of faith and conduct (2 Timothy 3: 16, 17; 2 Peter 1: 20, 21, Mark 13: 31; John 8: 31, 32; John 20: 31; Acts 20: 32) .
