| Summary: | T. F. Torrance’s reconstructed ‘natural theology’, inasmuch as it is consistent, is not, ultimately, natural theology at all but an account of human thought reconciled to God through participating in the vicarious humanity of Jesus Christ. The purpose of this essay is to lay out the coordination of Torrance’s reconstructed natural theology as discursive stratum of theology in relation to the double movement in which Jesus Christ both uncovers God to humanity and uncovers human eyes and ears to God. Jesus Christ has vicariously received the Word of God using the same faculties with which we have rebelled against it and actualized the knowledge of God as a human reality. |
