@GShaneMorris ? I don't think you read this post correctly.

Percolating this idea in my mind from BA Bosserman: "Christian paradoxes are vindicated as true by virtue of the fact that (a) their supposedly conflicting elements or “poles” imply one another in a discernible fashion when set in the light of the Christian system; and (b) the paradox, in return, enhances the internal coherence of the Christian system."

Another: "it is sometimes said that the only difference between idealist and Christian ethics is that the one figures with the fall of man and the other does not. This difference would be great enough, and really involves everything else. Yet we can point out more directly that, even if we ignore the fall for the moment, the difference between idealism and theism remains. The difference is here, exactly, that the idealist, as well as every other type of non-Christian ethics, thinks of the moral consciousness of man as operating independently of God. We cannot stop to develop this point. We may illustrate it with the attitude displayed in Plato’s dialogues. In the Euthyphro, a thing is not holy because God desires it, but God desires it because it is holy. In the Republic, Books 2 and 3, it is said that God could not be as certain myth represents him as being. That is, the principle of goodness is established by the moral consciousness of man first and afterward God is judged in accordance with this principle. The moral principles according to which God is judged are, to be sure, thought of by Plato as existing beyond man himself, even as being eternal. Yet the point is whether they are thought of as existing independently of God, and on this point the words of Professor Bowman sum up the whole matter when speaking of the Greeks he says that the personality of the gods was subordinated to the conception of the universe as a system of timeless moral principles. And what holds for Plato holds for all the modern idealists. Invariably one finds them surrounding the individual moral consciousness with a comprehensive universe of impersonal principle. Idealism knows of no personality that is absolute." (from "Christian Theistic Ethics")
