Vern S Poythress

Humans use reasoning to understand and order the world around us. We apply this logic in a variety of contexts, from classifying simple objects to considering complex philosophies. But how should our identity as Christiansmade in the image of God (Gen. 1:2627) with minds renewed by the Holy Spirit (Romans 12:12)inform our reasoning?

Vern S. Poythress explains how all human reasoning reflects Gods nature. Providing a foundational understanding of God as the source of rationality, Poythress details the 3 fundamental laws of logicidentity, contradiction, and excluded middlewith a strong focus on analogical reasoning. This robust guide explains types of analogy, ethics applied to logic, the use of analogies in the doctrines of God, and more to give readers a renewed perspective on how to use reason as a follower of God.
