Natural Theology Fails? | Part 2 With Jeffrey Johnson
How do we come to know God? It's one of the most important questions you can ever ask in life. But not everyone agrees on the answer—even among Christians.
The study of knowledge is epistemology, and the study of God is theology. There have been very diverse approaches to both epistemology and theology within the church throughout history, but which approach is best? We're going to get into both epistemology and theology in this episode with Dr. Jeff Johnson.
Johnson is the president and professor of Expository Preaching, Covenant Theology, Ecclesiology, Apologetics at Grace Bible Theological Seminary. He's also the author of the controversial new book, The Failure of Natural Theology, in which he digs into the epistemology and theology of Thomas Aquinas. Johnson says Aquinas, by drawing too heavily from Aristotle, misses the mark.
In this second part of the conversation, Joel Settecase, Prof Khaldoun Sweis and Dr. Johnson discuss how to share the Gospel (evangelize) in light of what the Bible really teaches about how to know God. Don’t miss it!
