A DEMONSTRATION OF GOD AND THE ARGUMENTS
FOR THE EXISTENCE OF CHRISTIAN GOD IN CHRISTIAN APOLOGETICS (20)
by Dr. Paul B. Jang (Ph.D, Christian Apologetics) (영문) ✝✝✝
CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF THE LITERATURES:
PHILOSOPHICAL AND THEOLOGICAL FRAMEWORK OF THE CONCEPTS AND EXISTENCE OF GOD HISTORICAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL SURVEY
The Doctrino-Historical Survey
Mysticists insisted that they could directly see God because of having had the eyes of contemplation (oculus contemplationis) as well as the sensual eye (oculus carnis) and the carnal eye (oculus rationis) Most theologians of the Middle ages rejected the innate idea of God.
Martin Luther disregards the reason of man and the innate idea of God having emphasized the grace and the Holy Spirit of God against the Scholar theology.
Melanchton recognized the a priori knowledge (cognitio insita) and a posteriori knowledge (cognitio aquisita) at the same time. But the Christian theologians had identically denied the Cartecius a priori innate idea and the inner light of mysticists.
Reformed theologians, at first, had been interested in the natural theology, but later overwhelmed it on the basis of the special revelation of God in the Bible.
John Calvin had also recognized that the innate idea of God did not fade from the memory of man, and he called this idea the seed of religion. He stated this as follows:
There is, as the eminent pagan says, no nation so barbarious, no people so savage, that they have not a deep-seated conviction that there is a God. And they who in other aspects of life seem least to differ from brutes still continue to retain some seed of Religion.
So deeply does the common conception occupy the minds of all, so tenaciously does it inhere in the hearts of all! Therefore, since from the beginning of the world there had been no region, no city, in short, no household, that could do without religion, there lies in this a tacit confession of sense of deity inscribed in the hearts of all. (Calvin, ed. John T. McNeill. trans. Ford Lewis Ballie, 1967, 44)
The philosophical innate idea of God began to be revived by the Descartes, and having passed over Leibnitz and Volff to the contemporary theology. And again it has effected on the contemporary theology to be indulged in the thought of the rationalistic autonomy. 💟💟💟
