We may be moved and induced [= persuaded] by the testimony of the people of God to gain a high and reverent estimation of the Holy Scriptures. We may be similarly affected by the nature of the Scriptures—the heavenliness of the contents, the efficacy [= power] of the doctrine, the majesty of the style, the consent of all the parts, the scope of the whole, which is to give all glory to God, the full disclosure it makes of the only way of man’s salvation, together with many other incomparable excellencies and entire perfections. By all the evidence, the Scripture more than proves itself to be the word of God. Yet, notwithstanding this, our full persuasion and assurance of the infallible truth of Scripture and it's divine authority, is from the inward work of the Holy Spirit bearing witness by and with the word in our hearts.
