Holy Bible/God's written word

We believe that the Holy Bible is the inerrant, infallible, inspired Word of the living God and that it is our final written authority in all matters of faith and practice. We further believe that God, as promised, has preserved His Word for the English speaking people perfectly in the "King James Version" of the Bible, and has strict warnings against tampering with His Word and words in any way, other than translating it.
