Ephesians 2:8-9 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

All academic studies are ultimately a study of God. He is the author and center of every discipline: science, mathematics, history, language, etc.

We are a finite mind attempting to understand an infinite mind.
