Listen Later

The sermon centers on the biblical and confessional truth that God is knowable because He has condescended to reveal Himself through both general revelation—evident in creation, preservation, and government of the universe—and special revelation, uniquely disclosed in His holy Word and supremely in Jesus Christ. It emphasizes that human reason, corrupted by sin, cannot arrive at saving knowledge of God apart from divine revelation, rejecting both deism and pantheism as inadequate and unbiblical.
