Our Lord says, "seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness (or justice)iempasis added" (Matt. 6:33). The churches of our time seem to believe that God exists to save man and keep him happy. Theology is therefore only studied as an adjunct to the doctrine of salvation. This turns the wor…

Neoplatonism and Providence “The Fall is not normative nor eternal, but God's creative purpose is. To sing mournfully of change and decay is not godly. Change or time is God's purpose for the development of His Kingdom and man's exercise of dominion. It is in time that man is redeemed and re-orders his life and world in terms of God's word. Decay is an aspect of the fall, but it also prepares the way for those things which can neither decay nor be shaken (Heb. 12:27-28)” -R.J.

The infallible word of God is the foundation of presuppositional apologetics. The existential man points to mankind and his ever changing experiences as the infallible word. This is the difference between building your presuppositions on shifting sand vs the unmovable rock of the word of God, Jesus Christ. In the following sections you will get a better grasp of mans rebellion against the biblical concept of thinking God‘s infallible thoughts after him. This is the very battleground where the defense of the faith is fought. I. Infallibility 9. The Infallible Movement 10. Who Speaks the Word? 11. The Word of Dominion 12. The Word of Flux 13.

“In brief, infallibility is not a doctrine limited to theological studies. It is a fact of contemporary life, with the new gods claiming for themselves that power which properly belongs only to God. Therefore, any discussion of infallibility which confines itself to a discussion of what theologians have said is blind to the problems of our time. The new infallibility doctrine confronts us in art, politics, and the sciences. Failure to challenge these rivals of God and enemies of His word and kingdom is faithlessness and incompetence. To sit idly by while these new doctrines of infallibility parade their pretensions and to assume that a Sunday morning assertion concerning Scripture suffices is cowardice and desertion.“ -R.J. Rushdoony
