2 As Gregory A. Clark calls it in “The Nature of Conversion: How the Rhetoric of Worldview Philosophy Can Betray Evangelicals” in The Nature of Confession: Evangelicals and Postliberals in Conversation. (ed. T. R. Phillips and D. L. Okholm; Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 1996), 201–218. Though worldview emphases in non-evangelical philosophy have for the most part run their course, evangelical worldview philosophy, though initially posited about a century ago, has only recently taken root within evangelicalism-at-large.

10 Note the rhetorical appeal in the idea of the Christian worldview, for example, in the apologetic work, To Everyone an Answer: A Case for the Christian Worldview (ed. F. J. Beckwith, W. L. Craig and J. P. Moreland; Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 2004). Much better is Moreland and Craig’s Philosophical Foundations for a Christian Worldview. An observation that cannot be pursued here is that it is often assumed that a biblical worldview (or the biblical worldview) and a Christian worldview (or the Christian worldview) are identical. Not only can it be a tenuous road that connects the former to the latter, it is sometimes an unbelievably arduous task to establish the former in the first place. I set out to illustrate in upcoming chapters that biblical studies is not so easily domesticated.
11 How to relate the divine and human, as we shall see in chapters three and four, is a basic dilemma that perpetually plagues evangelical views of Scripture.

15 Ben Witherington III has found occasions to fault Calvinism, Dispensationalism and Wesleyanism for not being able to satisfactorily account for the diversity of biblical data in The Problem with Evangelical Theology: Testing the Exegetical Foundations of Calvinism, Dispensationalism, and Wesleyanism. (Waco, TX: Baylor University Press, 2005). Compare Trevor Hart, “Systematic—In What Sense?” in Out of Egypt: Biblical Theology and Biblical Interpretation. Scripture and Hermeneutics 5. (ed. C. Bartholomew, M. Healy, K. Möller, and R. Parry; Grand Rapids: Zondervan, 2004), 341–351.
16 William Dembski, for instance, actually counsels readers to cry, “Perplexity!” when faced with an irresolvable error in Scripture. See his essay, “The Problem of Error in Scripture” in Unapologetic Apologetics: Meeting the Challenges of Theological Studies. (ed. W. A. Dembski and J. W. Richards; Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 2001), 79–94, 93–94.

22 Perhaps in an analogous way to that in which “[a]rithmetic is not sufficient to prove its own consistency.” (J. N. Crossey, et. al., “Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorems” in What is Mathematical Logic? [ed. J. N. Crossley, et. al.; New York: Oxford University Press, 1972; repr. New York: Dover, 1990], 45–58, 57.) Compare John Webster’s diagnosis in Holy Scripture: A Dogmatic Sketch. (New York: Cambridge University Press, 2003), 11. The conclusion that Christianity is unable to solve its own problems reaches at least as far back as Nietzsche.
