Cheung, Vincent – Ultimate Questions

Posted on February 24, 2023January 3, 2023 By Wlue 777

PREFACE TO 2004 EDITION

This book brings together three related essays dealing with theology, philosophy, and apologetics. They present the first principles of a biblical system of philosophy, and illustrate how the biblical worldview alone answers all the “ultimate questions,” such as those related to metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and soteriology.

In the first chapter, I show that God has placed an inescapable revelation of himself in the mind of man. This revelation includes enough specific information for each person to recognize that Christianity is the only true religion and philosophy, and to recognize that all non-Christian religions and philosophies are false. To deny this inescapable revelation constitutes an inexcusable suppression of evidence, resulting in an inevitable damnation. From this, we derive a biblical strategy of apologetics that is fortified by invincible argumentation, showing that the Christian worldview is a necessary precondition to all of life and thought.

In the second chapter, I provide a basic exposition of the logos doctrine, relating it to metaphysics, epistemology, ethics, and soteriology. The conclusion is that Scripture provides sufficient and infallible information from which the Christian may construct a comprehensive and coherent worldview. On the other hand, all non-Christian religions and secular philosophies fail to answer any of the ultimate questions.




Then, in the final chapter, I apply the biblical doctrine of divine sovereignty, an essential theme of the previous two chapters, to specific aspects of soteriology. I conclude that only God can produce true faith in the mind of man, that only true faith perseveres, and that only those who persevere inherit everlasting life from God. On the other hand, all that God has chosen for salvation receive true faith, and all that receive true faith from God persevere, and inherit everlasting life.

Note that I am reworking the entire website. Sorry for the inconvenience. As I find modules that are not in the zips, I will add them to the download page instead of adding them to the zip. So please check back from time to time even though you have already downloaded a particular zip pack because there may be some additions at the bottom of the page. --D.C.

Oldies but Goodies
I am going to go back into my archives and renew some old posts (single modules) that will expire after a few days. Putting all 2000 that were live (4000 actually counting the ones waiting to be posted also) that are in the archives as live seems to bring the site down. So I will see how this works. Take note that these posts will be live for 7 days and then will be deleted, so if you visit this site regularly, you will see them, but get them while they are up. (And remember to visit the site various times during each week.)

I am working for you, so please donate something (any amount) for my labors: Paypal paypal.com/paypalme/davidcoxmex/
