Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: REASON OR REVELATION ; WHICH? THE KEY NOTE. "It is lawful for man to search after truth in any realm. Reason was given him that he might investigate all things, to the end that truth should appear. It is superstition that hinders man from looking into any manifestation of nature or human nature, and having seen its effects, learning if possible its cause. The mistakes that many make is in placing reason and science above intuition and revelation. There can be no exercise of reason unless the spirit of man is inspired, or intuitively drawn into reasoning, and there can be no knowledge of science save through a direct revelation of that science to some person. Cold, calm, uninspired reason is the marble statue compared with the living body : in one you see all there is ; in the other are possibilities undreamed of by those who are guided by reason alone. "Reason is bounded and circumscribed by the brain of man; intuition, which is the reasoning faculty of the spirit, is boundless in its possibilities; hence when man attempts to act from reason alone, he is acting independent of and disconnected from all divine things, and his teachings and life have little or no effect ; since, if there be no spiritual fountain from which reason draws a supply, it can have no enduring influence on men or things. It was my practice to use my reason on all occasions, and to pray that my reason might be enlightened and inspired by divine wisdom, and I often found that reason was left far in the background, and intuition led me into realms of revealed thought which reason alone could never have reached." - William Ellery Channing (spirit-voiced).

Download or read book Revelation and Reason written by Emil Brunner and published by Stevens Book Press. This book was released on 1946 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To many people both inside the Chruch and outside it--what goes on in the Church is either routine or irrelevant. Consequently, what the Church has to say is not very meaningful. Why should people listen to what the Church has to preach and think about it? No one is better qualified to answer this question than Professor Emil Brunner. Dr. Brunner is a teacher of theology in the University at Zurich, Switzerland, and one of the clearest and most constructive religious thinkers of our day. Any book of his is an event because he succeeds so well in combining sound learning with persuasive and readable analysis, and because he is thoroughly acquainted with both American and Continental ways of thinking. In this book, Dr. Brunner sets the claim of the widespread intellectual relativism of contemporary culture. He seeks to show that both Catholic and secular thought misunderstand the relations between reason and revelation because revelation is always subordinated to reason. Brunner reverses the position. He goes back to the Bible and the Reformers and maintains that when reason is subordinated to revelation the preaching of the Gospel is at once true to itself and intelligible. Here is a forceful and thorough volume which helps both believers and unbelievers to understand themselves. -Publisher

Download or read book Religion Revelation Reason written by Eric Rust and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 1981 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book begins with a general consideration of religious experience and moves to a defense of the Christian revelation as the normative one for all other divine disclosures. This means that increasingly the book moves towards a defense of theistic thought as contrasted with other religious systems. This emphasis on the approach to the understanding of God typical of the Judaeo-Christian and Islamic traditions has meant a preoccupation with issues particularly significant for this way of thinking- the nature of man, the understanding of the creative process, the problem of human survival beyond death, and the mystery of evil. I have, however, brought in the views of other religious systems and offered a critique of their relationship to the theistic position. Wherever thought has moved to the specific content of the Christian disclosure in Jesus Christ, I have stopped short. Philosophy of religion, and theistic philosophy in particular, are only prolegomena to the task of the Christian theologian.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of lectures given by Bavinck when he was invited by Princeton Theological Seminary to speak. He focuses on the different theories of Revelation and stresses the importance of different avenues of the revealing of God to man. The biggest claim is that we cannot make sense of the world around us without making the time to understand how God's revelation applies to us. These lectures are just as relevant today as they were when Bavinck first gave them.

Download or read book The Disappearance of Moral Knowledge written by Dallas Willard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on an unfinished manuscript by the late philosopher Dallas Willard, this book makes the case that the 20th century saw a massive shift in Western beliefs and attitudes concerning the possibility of moral knowledge, such that knowledge of the moral life and of its conduct is no longer routinely available from the social institutions long thought to be responsible for it. In this sense, moral knowledge—as a publicly available resource for living—has disappeared. Via a detailed survey of main developments in ethical theory from the late 19th through the late 20th centuries, Willard explains philosophy’s role in this shift. In pointing out the shortcomings of these developments, he shows that the shift was not the result of rational argument or discovery, but largely of arational social forces—in other words, there was no good reason for moral knowledge to have disappeared. The Disappearance of Moral Knowledge is a unique contribution to the literature on the history of ethics and social morality. Its review of historical work on moral knowledge covers a wide range of thinkers including T.H Green, G.E Moore, Charles L. Stevenson, John Rawls, and Alasdair MacIntyre. But, most importantly, it concludes with a novel proposal for how we might reclaim moral knowledge that is inspired by the phenomenological approach of Knud Logstrup and Emmanuel Levinas. Edited and eventually completed by three of Willard’s former graduate students, this book marks the culmination of Willard’s project to find a secure basis in knowledge for the moral life.
