The Doctrine of Scripture:
1. The God of the Bible is a God who acts and talks. He is personal. The Christian’s view of
the Bible is tied to the doctrine of God, who discloses himself in deeds and words.
2. The Bible is simultaneously the product of God’s mind and of human minds.
“Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s
own interpretation of things. For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets,
though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit” (2 Peter 1: 20-21).
“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in
righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2
Timothy 3:16-17).
