Van Til is as insufferable as Barth, TBH

The goat 🐐🔥

"God is man's ultimate environment, and this ultimate environment controls the whole of man's immediate environment as well as man himself. The whole of man's own immediate environment as well as man himself is already interpreted by God." (pg. 66)

A light and edifying Sabbath read

I have now assembled my Greek New Testament, Athanasius, Peter Martyr Vermigli, Jeremiah Burroughs, Herman Bavinck, and Cornelius Van Til to utterly curb stomp my doubts. Glorious.

“Every man is made in the image of God and has impressed upon him the law of God. [This] makes men always accessible to God. [This] assures us that every man, to be a man at all, must already be in contact with the truth. He is so much in contact with the truth that much of his energy is spent in the vain effort to hide this from himself. His efforts to hide this from himself are bound to be self-frustrative.”
