2. In Chapter 2 of "The Bible Compass", the "two orders of knowledge" are natural reason and the order of Divine Revelation. Natural reason connects with our human intellects that lets us know the basic understandings of life. For example, we can come to know through human reason that there must be a God who created the world. On the other hand, Divine Revelation enables us to know many things about God and his plan for us that we could not know by reason alone. For example, while we do not need the Bible or Church to know that God exists, reason alone cannot conclude that God would become man and die for our sins. The best that reason can do for us is demonstrate that God exists, but divine revelation is the only ground for believing in God.
