Natural Theology

“Bavinck defines [natural theology] as theology that is ‘through’ the natural order compared to supernatural theology (Scripture) that is ‘from beyond’ the natural order. … Therefore, natural theology should be understood as knowledge of God the Creator through his creation.” - London Lyceum

“Natural theologians believe that the book of nature reveals to human reason aspects of the divine creator that point to the one true God, while freely confessing that only the book of scripture reveals to human faith the gospel by which alone we can be saved.” - Ref21

“…natural theology today is not so much refuted as it is ignored. But those who ignore it should be aware of the fact that nature does not go away just because a human culture chooses to pretend it is not there.” - Credo

“Augustine’s statement is comparable to Lewis’ own signature declaration of faith: ‘I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen, not only because I see it but because by it I see everything else.’” - Ref21
