Bibelen siger, at Guds ord er sandheden. Herrens ord er ånd og liv og er både vand og ild. The word of God is a lamp and a light and is quick, kraftig, og skarpere end noget tveægget sværd, and delivers, heler, and gives life to everyone, hvem tror. The whole creation is created by the Word of God and testifies of God. The words of the Lord cause sinners to repent and turn from their wicked ways. Dem, who have found the Word have found the Way, sandheden og livet. To them the words of God are precious, since they are the truth and contain the knowledge, wisdom and life of God. They listen to the words of God and believe and obey them. They that love God’s words love Jesus and the Father and keep His words and commandments in their heart and do them, so that they stay in Him. They obey His words and follow after righteousness because they love righteousness and hate sin and iniquity, just as their Lord and Father of Whom they are born. The words of the Father will be in the mouths and hearts of His sons (det gælder både hanner og hunner) for altid.
