Highlights from "Living Faith" on Scripture:

"Jesus Christ as he is attested for us in Holy Scripture is the one Word of God whom we have to hear, and whom we have to trust and obey in life and in death" (Barmen Declaration, 1934, article 1)

The Bible's "basic function is to deepen our love, knowledge and service of [Jesus] as our Savior and Lord" (The Study Catechism, 1998, question 57)
