The purpose of general revelation is to show God as the Creator (Acts 14:15; Gal 4:8) and sovereign ruler over all people (Matt. 5:45). Some people are given more general revelation than others are, because some are in environments where more revelation is necessary to build the foundation toward a conclusion of faith (Acts 14:15-18), in accordance to God’s foreknowledge of their acceptance of that general revelation (1Cor. 14:26). This foundation is set so that when special revelation is given, the individual may see the general revelation as God showing Himself to us (Rom. 1-3).

I will post more as time goes on, but for now, if you have specific theological questions, please email me via the contact page. ArchivesCategories
