PREFACE TO PRECEPTS FROM THE KING JAMES BIBLE
It was at the Diet of Spires in 1529 that Luther and others made their great declaration;
Seeing there is no sure doctrine, but such as is conformable to the Word of God; that the Lord forbids the teaching of any other doctrine; that any difficult text ought to be explained by other and clearer texts; and that this Holy Book is in all things necessary for the Christian easy of understanding, and calculated to scatter darkness; we are resolved by the grace of God, to maintain the pure and exclusive teaching of His Holy Word, such as it is contained in the Biblical Books of the Old and New Testaments, without adding anything thereto that may be contrary to it. This word is the only truth; it is the sure rule of all doctrine and all life, and can never fail or deceive us. He who builds on this foundation shall stand against all the powers of hell, whilst all human vanities that are set up against it shall fall before the face of God.
