Ep.486: Unveiling Metaphysics: The Roots of Western Thought w/ Michael King | The Courtenay Turner Podcast

Courtenay,

I’m going to list the source/synonyms for the source of universals:
a.IMAGO DEI as fundamental, irreducible value
b. Imago dei synonym “The Shema”, first and second commandments 1) Love your God with all your heart, mind and soul 2) love yourneighbor as yourself — the first and second commandments that sum up the ten commandments
c.the Ten Commandments
d. the Word that is Jesus/the Bible
e. Holy Spirit that comes upon a believer (and gives understanding) at the moment the person accepts the free offer of salvation from death that is the wage of sin.
f. “doing the work of God,” which is to believe the One He sent.

all these working together in a life ends up giving the person an understanding of the innate value of the human being that is the universal foundation of God.
