Alright, let the ride begin.... Here is fundamental belief #1:
My problem with this belief is this.... if the "holy scriptures" are the written word of God, why didn't God write them? Why did man write them? If men wrote them, they are the written words of men, compiled and packaged by men... Likewise, the written words of men cannot be infallible because men are not infallible.....
That's just for starters....
Fundamental Beliefs1. Holy Scriptures:
The Holy Scriptures, Old and New Testaments, are the written Word of God, given by divine inspiration through holy men of God who spoke and wrote as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. In this Word, God has committed to man the knowledge necessary for salvation. The Holy Scriptures are the infallible revelation of His will. They are the standard of character, the test of experience, the authoritative revealer of doctrines, and the trustworthy record of God's acts in history. (2 Peter 1:20, 21; 2 Tim. 3:16, 17; Ps. 119:105; Prov. 30:5, 6; Isa. 8:20; John 17:17; 1 Thess. 2:13; Heb. 4:12.)
