Unless you enjoy direct, personal revelation, you are forced to trust secondary, tertiary, nay, n-th-ary sources. Your faith in those sources have to be greater than your faith in what those sources tell you, because without them, you have no other way of knowing. This is pure, simple common sense.

Unless you enjoy direct, personal revelation, you are forced to trust secondary, tertiary, nay, n-th-ary sources. Your faith in those sources have to be greater than your faith in what those sources tell you, because without them, you have no other way of knowing. This is pure, simple common sense. Perhaps you need to define what 'faith'/'trust' means to you. If something is a direct revelation, then that is proof and not evidence. Evidence is at the heart of Christian faith. Evidence must be examined to see if the claims are true. Same in a court of law. Witnesses are presented and so is evidence.
