How do we know that Scripture is the faithful word?
Answered in 1 source
Scripture is identified as the faithful word because it is God's revelation, perfect and unchanging.
The reliability of Scripture stems from its divine origin and authority. In Deuteronomy 32:4, God is described as a 'God of truth' whose works are perfect. This establishes the Scriptures not just as historical or moral teachings, but as the very words of God, perfect and trustworthy. Furthermore, Psalms 119:89 asserts that God's word is eternal and faithful, affirming its consistency across generations. Pastors and believers alike are called to trust and teach this faithful word with the assurance that it is God who ensures its integrity. The challenge remains for the church to prioritize this truth over human philosophies or traditions that may lead to error.
