Absolute Certainty

It's popular these days--even among evangelicals--to cast doubt on the concept of "asbolute certainty." John Frame's entry on "Certainty" in the IVP Dictionary of Apologetics is a helpful antidote to these doubts. Frame reviews the basic philosophical objections, surveys the biblical evidence (arguing that absolute certainty is the appropriate response to God's revelation), then asks how the Word gives certainty.
