The truth of the doctrine of Scripture is confirmed through its divine inspiration and its consistent authority throughout church history.
The doctrine of Scripture's divine inspiration is supported by passages such as 2 Timothy 3:16, where Paul tells us that all Scripture is 'breathed out by God.' This indicates that the very words of Scripture carry the authority of God Himself. Furthermore, the historical reliability and impact of Scripture, evident when examining its fulfillment of prophecies and the transformations seen in lives throughout history, also affirm its truth. The church's reliance on Scripture in the wake of heretical teachings, such as those from Rome and the Arminian perspective, demonstrates that the church has anchored itself in this doctrine, affirming its importance and authority over other teachings.
