#2: What the Bible Says About “Thinking Christianly”

Listen Later

In this episode, we’re making a Biblical case for the role of reason in Christianity. We discuss:

  • How Scripture makes a clear case for the role of reason in our spiritual lives
  • The way evidential reasoning is present in Scripture
  • How to avoid confusing total knowledge with genuine knowledge
  • The difference between the use and abuse of reason
  • Why we can trust that God doesn’t use a different kind of logic than ours
  • Overcoming objections to the reasonable study of scripture
  • The harmony in Paul’s writings on reason and argumentation
  • How we participate in the renewal of our mind
