A Quote by Carl F.H. Henry
Modern scientific culture thinks that the great problem of human history is the control of man's external environment and that man himself has the wisdom and skill to achieve an ideal heaven and earth. Christianity holds that the problem of the universe centers in man himself, contemporary man included, who does not recognize the revelation of his transcendent Creator and Lord, and who subdues nature not according to God's spiritual mandate and purpose but in quest of his own comfort and wealth. Man the sinner presumes to displace the divine Creator; he exploits nature for his own use, indeed, for personal security in flaunting moral and spiritual imperatives. He shuts he eyes and heart to the revelation of the Logos in nature and conscience and reason, as well as in the Word incarnate and written.
