Chapter 2

We believe the Sacred Scriptures) to ‘be God-taught ; whose Author is the Holy Spirit, and none other. Which we ought to believe without doubting; for it is written: ‘We have [as] more sure the prophetical word, whereunto ye do well to take heed, as unto a lamp shining in a darksome place. Απά so the witness of the Sacred Scriptures is of higher authority than that of the Church.

For it is not the same for us to be taught by the All-holy Spirit, and [to be taught] by man; for man by reason of his ignorance, is liable to err, and to deceive, and be deceived ; but the Sacred Scriptures, neither deceive, nor are deceived, nor are subject to error; but are infallible and have perpetual authority.
