Life Center's Statement of Faith On What We Believe About the Bible:
We believe that the entire Bible is the inspired, infallible, and inerrant Word of God and that the authors were moved by the Spirit to write the books of Scripture. The words of the Bible are the primary source for teaching and equipping Christians for a life of righteousness.
