@r0ck3t23 “we’ve spent all of recorded history defining ourselves by what we can do. Think. Build. Solve. Create.”
But the whole of Christian civilization!
We understand ourselves rather by what God does to/for us:
Created us in his image.
Redeemed us in his Son.
Equips us for his service.

“reformed Christians at their best never framed the discussion as us vs them [but rather] us for them.”

2019 NYC Bail Reform: If crime had stayed the same from 2020-2024, “there would have been 600 fewer murders, 1,000 fewer rapes, 10,000 fewer robberies, 22,000 fewer felony assaults, 16,000 fewer burglaries & 35,000 fewer car thefts in just those 5 years.”

Christ in the Kingdoms of Men (P&R) gets the attention.
But this other book, Francis Bacon, is on the blessings of creation, the spirit of modernity, and the allure of scientism.
If I may, for modern people, a very helpful little book.
@JerryLeeBowyer Bacon’s project – and it was a project – was to supplant the Christian hope with a technological hope, Christian civilization with scientific civilization… with all glory to Sir Francis!
Good question.
Argument in the book.
