essay will compare different approaches in Christian theology to philosophy to see which study was more influential in our individual development. Christian theology is the study of Christian beliefs. There are four sources for this study including scripture, tradition, reasoning and experience. Scriptures are sacred writings that document historical events pertaining to Christianity. The Bible is the central location for the scriptures. Christians consider the Bible their source of truth and

of philosophy from Christian understanding, so he calls this book ‘prolegomena to the history of philosophy’. Contents of this book are quite interesting; differing from a common book about the history of philosophy, Lee starts from God as the beginning of the history and philosophy. A structure of this book is following a biblical understanding of human history. Also, Lee heavily deals with the period of ancient Eastern and Greek philosophy. He divides a true philosophy, which is Christian philosophy

or a Christian, we’ll contrast each discipline from humanist to determine the many worldviews there is. Christian philosophy is what determines your worldview because it is dependable with the bible. We question ourselves about what is real, what’s reality, or even what does philosophy even mean. Philosophy gives you a foundation on who God is, Dr. Young says, “Philosophy after all is a way of life, and the Christian believes that he has the true way—the true pattern for living.” Philosophy means

Christian exegesis originates on Jesus Christ’s rebuke of Hebraic Literalism concerning issues such as, the Sabbath, sacrifice and rabbinic authority.

Finally, I would like to share my philosophy of Christian higher education. I believe any philosophy of Christian higher education must start with the affirmation that all wisdom and knowledge come from God (Proverbs 2:6), and all academic disciplines owe their existence to the wisdom and knowledge that precede from Him and His Word.
