Blaise Pascal

Isaac Newton famously said: ‘If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.’

Like our ‘cloud of witnesses’ in Hebrews 12.1, we have a wealth of wisdom to draw upon from the example of those who have gone before us in their defence of the faith.

Some of our historic forebears were muddled or confused; some were compromised or misleading. But many still bear reading about and reflection upon their writings, so that we don’t repeat the mistakes of the past.
