"It is an amazing privilege to teach children that Jesus, who said, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life,' is at the centre of every lesson and is the way to use what is learnt to live the way God wants us to live. "

Knowing
from Foundations for Christian Education
God is the Creator and Sustainer of everything that can be known or known about. The search for knowledge, skill and belief is the search to know the mind of God. God is Sovereign. As such he alone is the self-existent one who sets the standards of truth and righteousness. He alone governs all of life and history. He is beyond our comprehension; while man is the crown of his creation, we are still subject to his rule, his laws and his judgement.
We are dependent upon God for everything, including knowledge. In God’s grace he
has spoken to man. Man is born with a knowledge of God and creation displays his
glory – but neither of these is able to free man from the bondage of his selfishness.
