Of the Scriptures.
Touching which word of God, I thus believe and confess. 1. That all the holy scriptures are the words of God. All scriptures is given by inspiration of God. For the prophecy of the scripture came not in old time by the will of man; but holy men of God, speak as they were moved by the holy Ghost. 2 Tim. 3 16. 2 Pet. 1.21.

2 I believe that the holy scriptures, of themselves, without the addition of humane inventions, are able to make the man of God perfect in all things; and throughly to furnish him unto all good works. They are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith in Jesus Christ; and to thee in all other things, that either respect the worship of God, or thy walking before all men.
