Modeling a Life of Faith: Unanswered Questions between Faith and Reason

Abstract

This study suggests a model of the life of faith by identifying the harmony
between faith and reason. Thus, it is possible to look at science without loosing
our faith in special revelation. It discusses two dimensions of faith as they
are rooted in Scripture. Based on biblical presuppositions, the study indicates
that the scientific process may be approached through the interpretation of
scientific data that could be in harmony with the Scriptures or in closer harmony
to lend itself to data interpretation. It respects the scientific process and
recognizes the truth as set out in the Scriptures.

Key Words: faith, trust, faith and reason, general revelation, special revelation, science,
