As I am finishing the first chapter of this book, two examples have stood out as highlights. I want to focus on the topic of university education and the problem of human reasoning that discards divine revelation. This is a problem in today's educational system, and that is what the West is currently struggling with. We have narrowed down the gospel and missed our obligation to disciple the nations by spreading the knowledge of God as widely as possible (Isaiah 11:1-9).
We often aspire to attend prestigious universities like Harvard, but we sometimes forget the legacy of God's word that those universities were built upon. Take Harvard's motto, "Veritas Christos et cclesiae" for example, which translates to "Truth for Christ and the Church." The term "Church" is often understood on a religious level, forgetting the fact it refers to a community that walks in the light of Christ and reflects Him in the community and society they live in - this is what "Veritas" means. Unfortunately, over time we have lost sight of the truth that the Bible teaches and have instead preached a Christianity that is mostly layered with religious stigmas. Very sad though!
