Mathematics - Eastern University

Mathematics from Eastern University is a Campus Bachelor Mathematics degree that prepares you for a Education career. Mission Statement We believe that Mathematics is a discipline worthy of the Christian's study. We hold that mathematics is the language spoken by the universe. In addition to Scripture, God's special revelation, God has revealed himself generally to us in the cosmos. For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities - his eternal power and divine nature - have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Romans 1:20 Those that want to take seriously the study of God's written Word learn Greek and Hebrew so that the text may be understood in its original language. Similarly, one who wishes to learn of the Logos revealed in creation, through physics, engineering, etc., must learn applied mathematics . Furthermore, mathematical study for its own sake is valuable to the Christian. It has been argued, by Augustine as well as others, that pure mathematical objects have their being in the mind of God. Many Christian thinkers have closely associated mathematics with God's Wisdom or Logos. In this sense, the theoretical mathematician is practicing a spiritual discipline.
