The Bible as a Complete Creed

The man who writes, or prints, his creed in a book containing anything less than the whole Bible, ignores more or less profitable doctrine, and sets for himself a goal short of perfection, short of a thorough furnishing for good work. If he intends, after prescribing his creed, honestly to pursue the search for truth, he will need addenda comprising all that has been omitted of the inspired Word. For “all Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.” 2 Tim. 3:16, 17.
