Do you believe Calvin with the title to this section? Can
something written by fallible human hands reveal things about God that His
magnificent creation cannot? Calvin
justifies his position through reference to the Psalms such as Psalm 18:8-9
where the law of the Lord is “clear, enlightening the eyes”. The contemplation of creation is not
sufficient without the testimony of scripture.
He regards the word of God imparting revelation through Jesus Christ in
the New Testament as central because he refers to the Jews as “seeking God
without the Word”. His evidence for this
comes from the story of Jesus’ meeting with the Samaritan woman in John’s
Gospel chapter 4. So many people today
seem to think revelation of God starts and ends with creation- are you one? If
not then which passages of scripture reveal Jesus Christ to you?
