"The Bible is God’s word, the supreme rule for faith, thought, and practice, the revealed source of the evangelical understanding of grace, faith, and Jesus Christ as well as their respective Reformation solas: sola gratia, solus Christus, sola fide. Undergirding it all is sola scriptura or the “Scripture principle,” namely, the confession that “what the Bible says, God says.” Indeed, the consensus that Scripture is the final and authoritative source for Christian life and theology” represent a basic unifying factor through the whole of contemporary evangelicalism” While the future of evangelicalism may well lie in its ability to preserve the principle of sola scriptura, the particular character of evangelicalism will lie in its ability to specify the meaning of sola scriptura."
