Quote: Theory & Faith

~ Science Relies On Theories While Christianity Relies On Faith ~  

The theories of science and the faith of Christianity are both tested in the crucible of life and both stand strong!

The following is an excerpt from a book.

Sunlight / Sonlight

When it comes to the physical aspect of humankind, the scientific word theory is often misunderstood and inappropriately discarded. Theories have stood the test of time and have much supporting empirical evidence.

When it comes to the spiritual aspect of humankind, the religious word faith is often misunderstood and inappropriately discarded. Faith has stood the test of time and has much supporting empirical evidence.

Quote: The Object of Science

~ The Interaction of Science and Religion ~ 

The basis for investigation…

The following is an excerpt from a book.

Einstein wrote, “The object of all science, whether natural science or psychology, is to coordinate our experiences and to bring them into a logical system.” And I believe it is equally valid to remark that the object of all philosophy, whether rooted in religion or ethics, is to coordinate our meaning and purpose and bring them into a logical system. Such a system, in the case of religion, is referred to as theology.

God is mysterious from the human perspective—however, with an appropriate understanding, a systematic theology, the mystery of God is significantly reduced.

Sunlight / Sonlight

Sunlight enables physical vision which assists us in understanding our surroundings through the creation of a logical system of theories and beliefs about our physical environment.

Sonlight enables spiritual vision which assists us in understanding our existence through doctrines and beliefs about our spiritual environment.

Quote: Schizophrenic

~ Opposites Within the Same? ~ 

The following is an excerpt from a book.

The forces of nature seem schizophrenic. Consider basic elements such as water, wind, fire, and light. Water is essential to life but can be destructive in uncontrolled flooding. Wind, which as a gentle breeze produces lovely crystal-clear smog less days, can become vicious in the form of a hurricane or typhoon. The same fire that is essential for warmth can be a merciless killer. Light, which allows us to see the beauty of interaction of the natural elements, can cause skin cancer with over exposure to its life-giving rays.

Normally gentle, light can be awesome in its power. Light is usually continuous and uniform but sometimes arrives in great instantaneous brilliant bursts of power. Generally operating in a totally silent mode, light occasionally produces great thunderous outbursts.

So begins our study of the subject of light! In the pages that follow, you find an integration of what scientists know about natural light and how theologians understand the God of the Bible. This integration results in many fascinating parallels that provide insights into both physical and spiritual light.
