I, THE AUTHOR, ________________, fully agree to the conservative biblical views/positions listed below. I fully understand that if ever I drop any one of these views, I will immediately be dropped by CPH and have my books returned. If any view/position is not understood, it will be explained to the author and illustrator.

• The author affirms, wholeheartedly agrees and accepts the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy (ICBI)
• The author affirms, wholeheartedly agrees and accepts the full or absolute inerrancy of Scripture in the original languages.
• The author further affirms, wholeheartedly agrees and accepts that literal translation of Scripture is the Word of God to the extent that they faithfully represent the original.
• The author affirms, wholeheartedly agrees and accepts that the Bible in the original languages is infallible, authoritative, authentic, accurate and true,
• The author affirms grammatico-historical interpretation (i.e., plain-normal interpretation/“when the plain sense of Scripture makes common sense seek no other sense”) as the position of the Protestant Church since the Reformation. The meaning of a text is what the author meant by the words that he used.
• The author rejects historical-critical interpretation developed in the rise of the Enlightenment that seeks to dismiss or denigrate the plain, normal meaning of Scripture or apply a meaning foreign or contrary to the literal sense (allowing for figures of speech).
• The author affirms, wholeheartedly agrees and accepts that the critical text of Westcott and Hort of 1881, the Nestle-Aland and the United Bible Society (WH NU) is the preferred and trusted text in Bible translation.
• The author fully rejects the Textus Receptus (TR), i.e., the Received Text as corrupt and untrustworthy.

• We do not publish Charismatics of any sort
• We do not publish Catholics
• We do not publish liberal to moderate Bible scholars
