You gotta have faith!

Christians are often accused of using ‘faith’ as opposed to ‘reason’ — which (it is said) thinking people use. But in fact, it’s quite the opposite. We will see in this article that ‘all truth is God’s truth’.

Last month, we saw that Christians and non-Christians alike use faith, reason and evidence in forming their view of the world. Christians exercise ‘true’ faith, whereas others exercise ‘false faith’ — faith in something other than God’s true revelation. We began to explore the idea that Christians alone have true knowledge (cf. Proverbs 1.7). How then do we explain the apparent success of non-Christians in making great advances in many fields of knowledge — most obviously, the natural sciences?
