Bavinck on the doctrine of God’s knowability

چکیده
With this article, I will begin to treat the second volume of Bavinck's Reformed Dogmatics, which addresses the Scriptural revelation of God as the Creator of all things, especially of human beings as his image bearers.

Bohr's philosophy (as elucidated by Hooker, Scheibe, Folse, Howard, and others), on the other hand, was grounded in a seemingly different doctrine about the po...
