In this book, Dr. Brunner sets the claim of the Christian Church to the truth over against the widespread intellectual relativism of contemporary culture. He seeks to show that both Catholic and secular thought misunderstood the revelations between reason and revelation because revelation is always subordinated to reason. Brunner reverses the position. He goes back to the Bible and the Reformers and maintains that when reason is subordinated to revelation the preaching of the gospel is at once true to itself and intelligible. Here is a forceful and thorough volume which helps both believers and unbelievers to understand themselves.
