How is faith related to sight? Now, we've gone over this a lot of times, and so, I'll just give you a sketch on it. We’re dealing here with the epistemology of faith. How could faith know? How do we know anything? and so, there are two things that we need to write down immediately:

#1 is the myth of neutrality. We are not neutral beings. There is no neutrality in God's world. In God's world, God is God, and man can never be neutral with regard to the facts of the case. The myth of neutrality: Man is not poised between balanced alternatives, yes/no, this/that. There is no this or that. God has authority, and his word is true, and everything else is not. So, we need to dispose of the myth of neutrality.

And secondly, the treason of non-theistic epistemology, that is, to think without believing God. We have no right to our thoughts, unless we discipline them by the word of God. Non-theistic, that is, epistemology which desires to know, without listening to God, is also a myth, and, in fact, I’ve called it treason, non-analogical thought, thinking without listening. What was the fall? Man began to think, without listening. God had said:

“Listen to this: The day you eat of that tree, you'll die. If you try to get knowledge from somewhere other than listening to me, if you go to the tree for knowledge, you’re going to die. If you listen to me, you will live, all right?”

What did Adam do? He began to think without listening. He began to engage in a non-theistic epistemology, and he fell. So the garden was an epistemological disaster.

And so, we've grown up then, after the fall, with this default notion that seeing is believing. The way to believe something is to see enough evidence, “and if I see it, well, seeing is believing.” You’ve probably said that.
