Westminster Catechism #4

I pray everyone is having a blessed Sunday.  Chris has been working 10 hour shifts every day since our vacation.  Therefore, things have been a little busy around here.  I haven’t had much time to write, but there will be more to come soon.  This is the last day in this stretch.  I hope all of you are well.  We are presently drying off from the effects of Hurricane Fay.  Everyone is asleep in my house and I believe I’m going to join them.  Happy Sunday!

Question 4: How does it appear that the Scriptures are the Word of God?

Answer: 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.
