Natural Theology Defined: Defending Your Faith with R.C. Sproul

This sermon segment explores natural theology, the knowledge of God gained from nature in addition to scripture.

The practical takeaway is that God reveals Himself through both the created world (mediate general revelation) and an innate sense of the divine within us (immediate general revelation), as evidenced in Romans 1.
