The shield has 2 books above facing upwards and a single book below facing downward. This is to symbolize the limits of reason and the need for God's revelation. 370 years later the motto is simply; "Veritas". Truth.
Its ironic that the center of human excellence and wisdom is simply truth in mid air. No longer anchored in Christ or His Church.
Last night, I was blessed by Dr Ravi Zaccharias who shared the importance of Spirituality based on truth....the Word of God. Our faith is not blind because its founded and securely rested on this Truth! Christians have done their homework (in varying degrees) and have placed their faith on the Lord Jesus Christ. I was challenged personally to think about how much I know and cherish His Word. I desire Veritas Christo et Ecclesiae.
