Colossians 2:8 and 1 Timothy 6:20 cited by Sye as warnings against 'false knowledge' not founded on Christ — supports the presup epistemological claim

Does Presup Apologetics Have a Biblical Foundation? Mike Winger vs Sye Ten Bruggencate 01:28:29 – 01:30:00

Additional Pauline texts for presup epistemology

Sye cites: Col 2:8 — 'See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ.' And 1 Tim 6:20 — 'guard what has been entrusted to your care, turning away from godless chatter and the opposing ideas of what is falsely called knowledge.' He argues 'knowledge not based on Christ' is by definition false knowledge. Winger counters: these are general warnings about bad philosophy drawing people away from Jesus, not statements that presuppositional apologetics is the mandated method.
