Van Til on Common Grace | Westminster Radio on Common Grace #5

How can Christians affirm a fundamental antithesis between belief and unbelief while also recognizing the genuine truth, goodness, and cultural achievements found among unbelievers? In this archival lecture from his History and Nature of Apologetics course, Cornelius Van Til explores the Reformed doctrine of common grace and its importance for Christian apologetics. Van Til explains how God's restraint of sin allows believers and unbelievers to live and work together even while their fundamental interpretations of reality remain radically opposed. Along the way, he contrasts the Reformed position with Roman Catholicism, Arminianism, hyper-Calvinism, and neo-orthodoxy, arguing that a consistently Christian apologetic must begin with the triune God revealed in Scripture.
