CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE (LOGICALLY LOST):

"If the unsaved man were completely logical, and so had no point of common contact, we could not reach him for he would have taken his life and so be out of our reach."

CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE (ILLOGICAL vs REVELATION):

"The Lord uses this degree of illogical reality the unsaved man has in his false world. The Lord shows some men their bankruptcy as they use a microscope, some as they fall in love, and some as they fear to die. When the bankruptcy is perceived then Christ may be seen as the answer."

CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE (ATHEIST INCONSISTENCY):

"If the unsaved man was consistent he would be an atheist in religion, and irrationalist in philosophy (including a complete uncertainty concerning "natural laws"), and completely a-moral in the widest sense."

CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE (LOGICAL CONCLUSIONS):

"Both sides say, in their own field, 'See where your position leads, now see where Christianity leads. In the light of this comparison, Christianity is the right one.' I am convinced that neither side would say that Christianity could be wrong, except 'for the sake of the argument.'"

CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE (IRRACTIONALISM vs. CHRISTIANITY):

"As I remember Dr. Van Til's practical approach, it was to show the non-Christian that his world view, en toto, and in all its parts, must logically lead back to full irrationalism and then to show him that the Christian system provides the universal which gives avowed explanation of the universe. It is Christianity or nothing."

CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE (PREACHING/APOLOGETICS):

"Neither side, I am sure, would say that it is no use talking or preaching to the unsaved man. Both sides do. Neither would either side say that the Holy Spirit does not use Christian apologetics when it pleases him to do so. Both sides certainly use apologetics in dealing with the intellectual unbeliever."

CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE (REASONING FAITH):

"From the human viewpoint, neither side would say, I am sure, that it is possible for a man (remembering the fall) to simply reason from nature to a saving knowledge of nature's God without an act of personal faith. Bare knowledge without faith cannot save."

CLASSICAL/PRESUPPOSITIONAL DEBATE:

"I have before me these articles in The Bible Today, and on the other hand I remember vividly the good things I received from Dr. Van Til's courses. It seems to me, as I understand it, that the problem is not unsolable."
