Yeah, cool. So So I've tuned and actually I would like to say since since you brought up forgot to mention earlier

00:08

What I'm going back to what I said earlier. What? Contributed to me moving away from presuppositional and presuppositional ism.

00:15

Well, I can't talk all of a sudden. I just have a stroke. I don't know Well, I was seeing it very poorly represented and so that was thinking like yeah

00:25

Not gonna do it that and then as I mentioned Tyler's debate with Dilla hunty being a door that got me back into it

00:31

You know I seen your interaction with Tom jump and how well you did I was like wow I could really start to embrace this and then

00:36

What I watched today you did really well with I think his name was Eric Murphy Yeah, that was great to him that really helped me move along So two things that I have and I think if these can be overcome

00:49

I'll definitely consider myself a presupposition list. So the first one this is why I asked You We're gonna we're gonna get a baptismal back here and start singing come as thou are

01:05

Yeah, so the reason I bought the plant the Platonism is because I anticipated your answer and I wanted those two things established one is revelation and the other being

01:15

God's multi personal nature both of these being like a major part of presuppositional ism

01:20

So with that said and I guess before I bring this up ask quick question Where people in the

01:25

Old Testament rationally justified because they didn't have God's full revelation yet Yeah, I just released a brief video of Bonson answering that question it's like three minutes long it literally the title of the video or the audio is

01:41

Can Old Testament Saints be presuppers and so you might want to listen to his answer?

01:47

He goes into it a little bit and the question is going a little back and forth or whatever But if I can just give a thumbnail thumbnail sketch

01:53

You still have a basis for example of oneness and many categories in the

01:59

Old Testament And so it is true that the Old Testament an Old Testament state can be presuppositional

02:05

But instead of looking back on what God has fully revealed The Old Testament saying is looking forward to what

02:10

God has promised from the very beginning and on that basis you can argue That it's that God that gives us the meaning that we you know intelligibility knowledge because God is always revealed right and Issues of one and many nests would probably not be the context of an

02:26

Old Testament Saints discussions but if you have a philosophically astute and Theologically grounded

02:32

Old Testament Saint coming into contact with say the early pre Socratics. He very well could appeal to You know multiplicity and unity within God You know, it might be a little more difficult because it's not as pronounced as it is in the

02:45

New Testament but it's definitely there and is a revelational resource that the The studious

02:51

Old Testament say could avail himself up. So I I don't see a problem With that at all Adam could have used

02:57

You know presuppositional apologetics why because while he doesn't have the Bible Revelation was always present and not just general revelation special revelation was always present to him.

03:08

And so You know, this is where autonomy was birthed in the garden

03:14

Well, I mean Satan, but well, no, that's a different question What happens in the garden

03:20

God says to Adam and Eve, you know You could eat of all the the trees in the garden except, you know, the one in the midst of the garden

03:26

You know, don't eat it the day you'll eat it. You'll surely die And so what happens you have God's command who created everything and gave everything meaning gave the relation

03:35

Relationships between the things that God has created and God gave his law and it was a special revelatory law because he

03:41

Communicated it to Adam and Eve. And so here you have Eve at the tree Engaging in I mean again, this is assuming a particular understanding of Genesis, which

03:50

Tyler may or may not hold But suppose this conversation is actually literally going on between the serpent and and Eve What you have here is that the serpent presents these options?

04:04

To to Eve, you know, God says this but this is why he really says it but this is what happens, right?

04:10

So you have the word of the serpent you have the Word of God now what happens? What should Eve have done? She should have relied on the authority of God's Word not written word, but Spoken word.

04:23

Okay, that is her foundation. That is the foundation that gave meaning to everything Instead what she does is she says

04:31

God has a hypothesis the serpent has a hypothesis now I will step back and judge for myself and that is where she began to be

04:42

Autonomous or at least pretend to be autonomous and hence you run into the problems that are prevalent there

04:48

Okay But the resources were there for her had she used them to argue on the self

04:55

Attesting word of our maker and you know get away from me Satan right that sort of deal
