We believe that the Bible, composed of the Old and New Testament, is without error in the original manuscripts, is the divinely inspired Word of God, and is the supreme and final authority on all matters pertaining to faith and life (Jeremiah 30:2; 2 Timothy 3:16-17). The Bible is to be interpreted responsibly under the guidance of the Holy Spirit within the community of faith

(Acts 17:11). Although we appreciate the numerous confessions Christians have produced to express our common understanding of Christian faith, we accept no humanly devised confession or creed as binding (2 Timothy 3:14-15).
