DECLARATION on The AUTHORITY of SCRIPTURE

DSC 0272 The authority of Scripture is a key issue for the Christian Church in this and every age. Those who profess faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour are called to show the reality of their discipleship by humbly and faithfully obeying God’s written Word. To stray from Scripture in faith or conduct is disloyalty to our Master. Recognition of the total truth and trustworthiness of Holy Scripture is essential to a full grasp and adequate confession of its authority.

We are persuaded that to deny the inerrancy of Scripture is to set aside the witness of Jesus Christ and of the Holy Spirit and to refuse that submission to the claims of God’s own Word which marks true Christian faith.

DECLARATION HERE WE STAND

Authority
On the 500th anniversary of Professor Martin Luther’s historic stand, 18 April 1521, we reaffirm the foundational Christian doctrine of the Authority of Scripture. Sola Scriptura! Scripture alone is our ultimate authority. All authority that God delegates to moral beings is limited authority. All authority is delegated by God and is answerable to the Creator and Eternal Judge.

CAPE TOWN DECLARATION - STEADFAST IN THE STORM

On the occasion of the 500th anniversary of Professor Martin Luther's historic "Here I Stand!" 18 April 1521, the Reformation 500 Conscience Captive to the Word of God Conference meeting in Cape Town and joined through livestream, by participants worldwide, affirmed the following:

1. The Bible is the inspired, infallible and inerrant Word of Almighty God. The Bible is the objective standard and rock-solid foundation for Church, community, country and continent. The Law of God is absolute, applying to all people, in all places, at all times. Truth is neither relative, nor subjective. God alone determines and defines good and evil, justice and injustice. All laws and ethics must be derived from the unchanging moral Law of God as revealed in the Bible and summarised in the Ten Commandments. Biblical ethics are absolute and objective. Therefore, we must oppose abortion as the murder of preborn babies and sexual perversions on the grounds that they are morally incompatible with the absolute, universal ethical teachings of the Word of Almighty God. The Scriptures are the sum total of the Revelations of God which were infallibly recorded in a God-breathed, written form, designed to be a permanent deposit of divine truth and the permanent Rule of faith and life for individuals, families, congregations, communities, countries and continents.
