“The obedient Christian is one who counts the Word of God as the surest truth he knows, as his “presupposition,” because the deepest commitment of his heart is to serve the God of the Word. The unbeliever is one who rejects that presupposition, though also holding it after a fashion. The commitment of his heart is to oppose God, and so he seeks to escape his responsibility to obey any scriptural law, including the norms for knowledge. But he cannot succeed. Indeed, he cannot even attack the law without assuming its truth, and thus his thinking is muddled.” —John Frame
