Is Evidence Really Necessary? (James Grier)

“Is Evidence Really Necessary?” by James Grier

Is it necessary to prove the existence of God in a seemingly atheistic rationalistic society? Must we all preaching and witness first establish the reasonableness and credibility of the faith, and of the Bible in particular? ‘No,’ reply those who subscribe to the so-called ‘presuppositionalism’ proposed by Cornelius Van Til. Here Dr James Grier, formerly Dean of Grand Rapids Baptist Seminary, unravels a debate so central to vital evangelism.
