The Bible, Natural Theology and Natural Law: Conflict or Compromise
The Bible, Natural Theology and Natural Law: Conflict or Compromise, the present volume presents a devastating critique of natural law and natural theology. Dr. Morey understands the philosophical and theological traditions that give rise to this compromise. He digs deeply into scripture to refute these traditions, and present God’s truth. The truth and biblical data becomes overwhelming! A renewed commitment to “Sola Scriptura” becomes the greatest need of Christianity today. Only when ministers preach God’s word as the ultimate and sufficient authority will a revival of the reformation happen.
Today attacks on the revealed word of God come from humanists; those who believe man comes before God; or mystics who believe in their feelings; or from those who believe in reason; and lastly those who believe their faith is the ultimate authority, not God! Christians need not fear that rejection of natural theology makes them defenseless. The Apostle Paul writes, “For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength!” (1 Corinthians 1:25) Reliance on divine revelation makes us invincible, not vulnerable. Christians must learn to think and communicate on the basis of God’s word. If we begin with the biblical doctrine of creation, fall, and redemption we understand God, man, and the world. This answers the questions pertaining to life, death, and eternity.
The Bible, Natural Theology and Natural Law: Conflict or Compromise
The differences between philosophy and God’s word distinguishes sharply between man’s wisdom and God’s revelation. Those saved by the blood of Christ should never presume to discover God or His morals by reason alone! Rather they subordinate their reason to the revealed word of God. Revelation of God appears in nature, the universe. God’s nature and moral standards inevitably get misused by man’s fallen nature. They suppress the revelation of God in nature. Often times they exchange these revelations for pagan lies. They also refuse to worship God and obey His moral standards.
