Biblical Perspective and Interdisciplinary Connections

Mathematics is based on the reality of a created order; on the structure
which has been given to it, and Gods faithfulness in upholding the world
through those laws which He embedded in His creation. Anyone can thus
discover this mathematical order and put to use the structure and designs
which exist.
God reveals himself to us in his creation (Romans 1:19-20;). Creation has an
order and structure, regularity and pattern which is interrelated and
interdependent and which depend on God and sustained by Him. The study
of mathematics can thus assist in developing an awareness of the nature of
God and His creation; of His creativity, integrity and faithfulness.
Mathematics describes the order which God built into the universe, and we
can only make models of the structures because it is and ordered world.
Mathematics is an important area of human activity, explaining the
quantitative aspects of other disciplines. Mathematical concepts and ideas
can help us to gain a better understanding of the natural sciences,
economics, social sciences and so on.
Human creativity, while it is different from Gods creative activity, is still
and important aspect of mathematics. The exploration, investigation and
discovery of the world through mathematics is one important component of
the curriculum. The historical and cultural significance of the mathematics
and mathematicians is vital to a fuller understanding of the nature of
humanity.
Mathematics is an art as well as a science. It has pattern, rules, form, and
relationship. An important aspect of the study of mathematics is its beauty
and mystery.
