Cataphatic Theology

[cat-uh-fat’-ik thee-aw’-luh-jee]
(Greek kata- <as an affirmative> + Greek phanai, “speak” = kataphasis, “affirmation”)
Often called “positive theology,” cataphatic theology describes the theological methodology of those who focus on God’s self-revelation as a coherent avenue of God’s communication. While finite men cannot understand an infinite God completely, they can understand him truly.
