Excerpt from A Commentary on the Confession of Faith: With Questions for Theological Students and Bible Classes

Sections II. And III. Teach - (l) That these Holy Scriptures include the Old and the New Testaments and all the particular books named. The books called Apocrypha form no part of the' Sacred Canon. All the canonical books were divinely inspired, and hence are an infallible and authoritative rule of faith and practice.

Sections IV. And V. Teach The authority of Scripture rests not on the Church, but immediately upon God. Their internal characteristics prove the Scriptures to be divine. Their high est eviden'ce is the direct work of the Spirit on the heart.
