    • “As a matter of fact, all of the works of God, whether of word or deed, are constituent parts and elements of the one, great, comprehensive, and always continuing revelation of God.” - Bavinck
    • “Revelation, therefore, cannot have its final purpose in man; in part it passes him by and soars on beyond him.” - Bavinck
    • “In the general revelation God makes use of the usual run of phenomena and the usual course of events; in the special revelation He often employs unusual means, appearances, prophecy, and miracles to make himself known to man.”
    • “When therefore, we review the whole terrain of general revelation, we discover, on the one hand, that it has been of great value and that it has borne rich fruits, and, on the other hand, that mankind has not found God by its light.” - Bavinck
