Evangelical theologians recognize two domains of revelation. One is special revelation, which refers to God’s knowledge as found in Christ (John 1:18) and the Scriptures (1 John 5:9–12). The other is general revelation, which refers to God’s knowledge as found in his creation: nature, science, and history (see chart on p. 84). Special revelation is the domain of the theologian; general revelation is the domain of both the scientist and the theologian.
