Epistemological Justification for God


Epistemological Justification for God

1
point

Epistemology is the study of knowledge in relation to justifiable belief. It is a branch of Philosophy dealing primarily with the study of the nature of knowledge. Epistemological knowledge is justified belief rather than practical knowledge, such as knowing how to walk. In order for something to classify as epistemological knowledge, it must be true, otherwise it is not justified and therefore not epistemological knowledge. The existence of God justified through science or even through lack of scientific evidence has become trite. Rather than antagonizing old wounds, we will say that God is justified only through His Word which is the Bible and His Word is justified through man. So in order to argue the epistemological significance of God, we must prove his existence on an individual basis through the Word of God, rather than on the broader level—understanding for all.
