2. through a person’s conscience - the spirit, or mind. the sense of right and wrong testifies.
-testifies to what, that they have a sense of right and wrong, what does that have to do with some second party?
3. scripture is the His revelation.
-which scripture, and how do you know that it is his revelation?
4. through the person of Jesus Christ."
-the person of whom? You know the guy, have talks...does he come over for beer and brats on sunday and bitch about the Buccs?
Your soul making theodicy from the last page, btw....you're probably going to want to ditch that if someone sinks their teeth into it. It will end up saying things about your god that are likely to be unacceptable to you.
3. scripture - by reading, one come to an understanding that humans are made in God's image and the end purpose of man is to give glory to God.
1 & 4 are derogatory.
