  1. Chapter Three: A Roadmap to All Things Knowable Walsh Kennalee Davis

  2. “Everything which can be known has an order” “… in order to know something, it must be distinct from other things. But not only must something be distinct form other things, it must also have some definite relation to other things… When distinct things have a definite relation to one another, then there is an order among the, and this order is the foundation of all knowledge.” -Walsh

  3. Three Kinds of Order

  4. The Order Discovered by Reason • “Speculative” (comes from the Latin spectare, “to look at”) • This knowledge comes from watching the existing order of things • Can be divided into Natural History, Mathematics, and Metaphysics • For the sake of truth

  5. The Order Reason Puts Into Things • “Practical” • Order does not exist naturally, so reason made one by itself • Can be divided into Internal and External • For the sake of creating

  6. The Order God Reveals to Man • Man can’t know, discover, and produce everything on his own • The science which studies this order is Theology • For the sake of salvation
