(Ps. 19:1-6; Theology & Doctrine Capstone 3 Phl 302 Intro to Ethics 2 Heb. 1:1-2; John 17:17) We believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of Scripture. This means the Holy Spirit dynamically superintended the verbal expres- 2013 sions of the human authors of Scripture so that the very thoughts Bib 201 OT Lit: History & Poetry 4 Bib 402 NT Lit: Hebrews – Revelation 3 God intended were accurately penned in the wording of the Th 314 Anthropology/Christology/Soteriology 3 original manuscripts. (2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:20-21; 1 Cor. 2:13) Th 403 Pneumatology, Ecclesiology, Eschatology 4 We believe the Scripture is inerrant as to fact and infallibly Th 408 Senior Theology: History of Theology & Doctrine trustworthy as to truth, and should be interpreted in context to & Doctrine Capstone 3 ascertain each author’s intended meaning.

Article III – God the Father We believe that God the Father is the holy and loving Creator of all things. Unlimited in time, space, knowledge, and power, the Father has planned all that comes to pass. Although distinct from His creation, He is immanently at work in it. (Ps. 139: 1-16; 1 Cor. 8:6; John 5:17)

University 2010-2011 Article IV – God the Son We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God. He became man, without ceasing to be God, and was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary in order to redeem sinful humanity. He satisfied God’s holy and just demands by dying as our substitute on the cross. He assured our redemption by His resurrection from the dead in the same, though glorified, body in which He was crucified. (John 1:1-2; Luke 1:35; Rom. 3:24-25; 1 Pet. 1:3-5) We believe Jesus Christ ascended to heaven and is exalted at the right hand of the Father. As High Priest for His people, He serves as our Intercessor and Advocate. (Heb. 9:24, 7:25; Rom. 8:34; 1 John 2:1-2)
