Q4. How doth it appear that the scriptures are the word of
God?
A. The scriptures manifest themselves to be the word of
God, by their majesty and purity; by the consent of all the parts,
and the scope of the whole, which is to give all glory to God; by
their light and power to convince and convert sinners, to comfort
and build up believers unto salvation: but the Spirit of God
bearing witness by and with the scriptures in the heart of man, is
alone able fully to persuade it that they are the very word of God.

Q5. What do the scriptures principally teach?
A. The scriptures principally teach, what man is to believe
concerning God, and what duty God requires of Man.
