Concerning Inerrancy of Scripture: "The books of
Scripture must be acknowledged as teaching firmly, faithfully,
and without error that truth which God wanted put into the
sacred writings for the sake of our salvation."
Emphasized that "in order to see what God wanted to
communicate in Scripture, we must investigate the intention
of the sacred author, and one way to do this is by paying
attention to the literary form employed by the sacred writer."
