SANCTIFYING TRUTH

Jesus prayed, “Sanctify them by Your truth. Your word is truth.”  (John 17:17 NKJV)

What makes some theological works like sawdust to me is the way the authors can go on discussing how far certain positions are adjustable to contemporary thought, or beneficial in relation to social problems, or "have a future" before them, but never squarely ask what grounds we have for supposing them to be true accounts of any objective reality.  As if we were trying to make. rather than to learn.  Have we no Other to reckon with?

-- C. S. Lewis (1898-1963)
