Dr Francis Schaeffer, pastor, theologian and philosopher wrote this…
The truth of Christianity is true to what is there. You can go to the end of the world and never need be afraid, like the ancients, that you will fall off the end and the dragons will eat you up. You can carry out your intellectual discussions to the end of the discussion because Christianity … is true to what is there, and you will never fall off the end of the world!
