Theology Proper: 16 PHILOSOPHICAL ARGUMENTS FOR THE EXISTENCE OF GOD
A DISPENSATIONAL THEOLOGY
By Charles F Baker
Man is both a
material and an immaterial being. Both of these natures must be accounted for.
Even though the material nature of man could be satisfactorily explained upon
purely naturalistic causes, these could never account for the origin of his
immaterial nature. Strong, quoted above, was a theistic evolutionist, who
supposed that man’s body did evolve from lower animal forms by natural processes,
but he was forced to believe that his immaterial nature must have resulted from
a special act of creation. It is admitted that God could have used some form of
evolution to produce man’s body, but it is denied that Scripture teaches this.
And there is nothing of immaterial nature in the animal world from which man’s
immaterial nature could have evolved.
