It limits itself to the products of our own reason and discovery abilities. The other is based on Biblical revelation in conjunction with human experience. Because it is the intent of this survey of Christian belief to deal with as many of the questions of faith and doubt as practical, we will look at the origin and identity of mankind. We do not believe that it requires blind faith or the absence of reason or intellect to trust that God's active hand was present at our beginning, and continues to this day. This is what our hearts tell us.
Lets look at why.
First let us recognize that everybody starts with some assumptions when discussing these subjects. We as Christians do not have to be ashamed to listen to the testimony of the Bible and our hearts. It is not in any way less real to trust a God who has worked personally in our lives, than it is to accept the testimony of experts in the fields of the natural sciences. It is important to realize however that the same data can lead to two entirely different conclusions depending on the frame of mind of those interpreting the data. The Christian perspective is that there is an eternal God.
