《比利时信条》第五条 圣经的权威

　　我们接受1惟有这些经卷是圣经的正典，作为我们信仰的准则与根基2，并且证实我们的信仰3；我们毫无疑惑地相信其中所写的一切，不仅因为教会接受并证实了这一切，更主要是因为圣灵在我们的心中作见证，证明他们是从神而来的，而且这些经卷本身也证明它们是从神而来的。因为，纵是失明者都能够察觉到其中所预言的正在应验4。

　　 1.帖前 2:13.
　　 2.提后 3:16, 17.
　　 3.林前 12:3; 约壹 4:6, 约壹 5:7.
　　 4.申 18:21, 22; 王上 22:28; 耶 28:9; 结 33:33

　　 We receive all these books, and these only, as holy and canonical, for the regulation, foundation, and confirmation of our faith. We believe without any doubt all things contained in them, not so much because the Church receives and approves them as such, but especially because the Holy Spirit witnesses in our hearts that they are from God, and also because they contain the evidence thereof in themselves; for, even the blind are able to perceive that the things foretold in them are being fulfilled.
