Does Presup Apologetics Have a Biblical Foundation? Mike Winger vs Sye Ten Bruggencate 01:40:41 – 01:41:11

Sye's illustration for the suppression of truth in Romans 1

Therefore Romans 1's language of suppression requires that the person already has the truth of God's existence — they are not ignorant of it, they are actively holding it down.
