In two previous posts I discussed testing Randy Isaac, "science and the question of God," published on the website of the Foundation BioLogos. The last part of the testing Isaac is called "Model of two books." This term usually refers to traditional Christian vision that God reveals himself in history and writing, is his "special" revelation, as well as in the order created, which is the "General" revelation We have two additional books of revelation: writing book and the book of nature. Although we do not learn anything about God General revelation that we learn of special revelation of God, we learn something.
Writing itself suggests as well.According to the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Romans, "since the foundation of the world, invisible qualities of God - his eternal power and divine nature was clearly saw, bearing in mind the things that have been made."This is a very strong demand, but the Christian tradition, especially in the Catholic tradition, said that we can gain some knowledge of God of the created order.
Given the traditional sense of the "two books" metaphor, it is surprising that Isaac would like to "model two book" because he denies what traditionally says this model.Isaac supports natural sciences provides really no convincing evidence for Dieu.Je assumes that it could be argued, we can deduce existence of God in a way not scientific but rational nature, but I do not believe that either. What makes his position enough with the "model of two books" as normally understood.
I must admit that I read this section Isaac tested three times and I'm still unclear that I understand what he is told or say. Seems to argue on the one hand, we can really learn of God of nature, but we must still as the book of nature and the book writing to have a full, "stereoscopic" point of view of God and the reality. In addition, he argues that we need to know God in his word and not only his works really understand what God is that.But, of course, no Orthodox Christian thinker has never pointed out that you can get full or even save the knowledge of God only nature .the ' traditional claim is that you can obtain a knowledge of God nature.This is normally called for "model of two books".I think that needs Isaac find another metaphor, since he insists that "two model book" has always claimed.
Home lesson to exhibit Isaac seems ce.Si you want to integrate your theology of Darwinism and reject the evidence of intelligent design, you will have difficulty to maintain the natural world is one of the two books révélation.Au place of this God, you'll just insist on the fact that the "science" (including, of course, Darwinism) should inform our Dieu.Si notice you ask what Darwinism is done to Christian theology, throw a God and evolution, including chapters by John West.
