REASON OR REVELATION ; WHICH? THE KEY NOTE. "It is lawful for man to search after truth in any realm. Reason was given him that he might investigate all things, to the end that truth should appear. It is superstition that hinders man from looking into any manifestation of nature or human nature, and having seen its effects, learning if possible its cause. The mistakes that many make is in placing reason and science above intuition and revelation. There can be no exercise of reason unless the spirit of man is inspired, or intuitively drawn into reasoning, and there can be no knowledge of science save through a direct revelation of that science to some person. Cold, calm, uninspired reason is the marble statue compared with the living body : in one you see all there is ; in the other are possibilities undreamed of by those who are guided by reason alone. "Reason is bounded and circumscribed by the brain of man; intuition, which is the reasoning faculty of the spirit, is boundless in its possibilities; hence when man attempts to act from reason alone, he is acting independent of and disconnected from all divine things, and his teachings and life have little or no effect ; since, if there be no spiritual fountain from which reason draws a supply, it can have no enduring influence on men or things. It was my practice to use my reason on all occasions, and to pray that my reason might be enlightened and inspired by divine wisdom, and I often found that reason was left far in the background, and intuition led me into realms of revealed thought which reason alone could never have reached." - William Ellery Channing (spirit-voiced).

Excerpt from Reason Vs; Revelation: From the Fulcrum of the Spirit Philosophy; A Reply to Robert G. Ingersoll "It is lawful for man to search after truth in any realm. Reason was given him that he might investigate all things, to the end that truth should appear. It is superstition that hinders man from looking into any manifestation of nature or human nature, and having seen its effects, learning if possible its cause. The mistakes that many make is in placing reason and science above intuition and revelation. There can be no exercise of reason unless the spirit of man is inspired, or intuitively drawn into reasoning, and there can be no knowledge of science save through a direct revelation of that science to some person. Cold, calm, uninspired reason is the marble statue compared with the living body: in one you see all there is; in the other are possibilities undreamed of by those who are guided by reason alone. "Reason is bounded and circumscribed by the brain of man; intuition, which is the reasoning faculty of the spirit, is boundless in its possibilities; hence when man attempts to act from reason alone, he is acting independent of and disconnected from all divine things, and his teachings and life have little or no effect; since, if there be no spiritual fountain from which reason draws a supply, it can have no enduring influence on men or things. It was my practice to use my reason on all occasions, and to pray that my reason might be enlightened and inspired by divine wisdom, and I often found that reason was left far in the background, and intuition led me into realms of revealed thought which reason alone could never have reached." - William Ellery Channing (spirit-voiced).

To many people both inside the Chruch and outside it--what goes on in the Church is either routine or irrelevant. Consequently, what the Church has to say is not very meaningful. Why should people listen to what the Church has to preach and think about it? No one is better qualified to answer this question than Professor Emil Brunner. Dr. Brunner is a teacher of theology in the University at Zurich, Switzerland, and one of the clearest and most constructive religious thinkers of our day. Any book of his is an event because he succeeds so well in combining sound learning with persuasive and readable analysis, and because he is thoroughly acquainted with both American and Continental ways of thinking. In this book, Dr. Brunner sets the claim of the widespread intellectual relativism of contemporary culture. He seeks to show that both Catholic and secular thought misunderstand the relations 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. -Publisher
