It means we depend on Him for our salvation and existence. This dependence, however, can't just be assent if God isn't just a [set of] proposition[s].Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07883500968749756873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3295328575953992372.post-49086265516147965222014-08-21T12:51:14.539-04:002014-08-21T12:51:14.539-04:00"But clearly I can rely or depend on (trust) ..."But clearly I can rely or depend on (trust) something non-propositional."<br /><br />Not so clear to me.<br />That which is non-propositional cannot be known - how you can you trust what you cannot know? <br />Further, to try to alleviate this by imposing a "correspondence" between the propositional and the non-propositional only moves the problem: the correspondence is real (allegedly) but is itself not a proposition so it cannot be known either. Yet you claim to know and trust it. Weird.

He believed in a proposition and also trusted in God. <br /><br />Faith is not of ourselves, because we only trust someone if we think they are worthy of our trust. God makes himself lovely to us, which causes faith. Now I see a new dimension to faith.Maxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13363145901392951723noreply@blogger.com
