- They affirmed these documents are Scripture.
- They affirmed these documents are God’s inspired word.
They did not claim the New Testament books were superior to the Old Testament (nor merely “equal” in a way that would deny the continuing authority of the Old Testament); the council recognized the NT books as canonical and divinely authoritative.
