“For the fact of the creation is regarded in the Bible as a fact revealed; and as such, it is commended to our faith. Thus, the scriptural method on this subject is exactly the reverse of what is called the natural. It is not to ascend from nature up to nature’s God, but to descend, if we may so speak, from God to God’s nature, or His works of nature; not to hear the creation speaking of the Creator, but to hear the Creator speaking of the creation.” R.S. Candlish (1806-1873)
