Does general revelation conflict with scientific theories?
English: The Bible (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) What is the distinction between God 's infallible revelation and our fallible interpretation of that revelation. Many Christians affirm that God's special revelation is infallible, but not God's general revelation . We must affirm that both kinds of revelation are infallible. But why are some Christians reluctant to affirm the same. Many believers are hesitant to affirm the infallibility of general revelation because they rightly believe that not every scientific theory is compatible with the Word of God. Scientific theories are not the same thing as general revelation. General revelation (like special revelation) refers to an infallible action of God (or to the content revealed through that action). Scientific theories are the fallible interpretations of what Christians know to be God's created works. Since general and special revelation both proceed from God, they cannot ultimately conflict.
