4.The Nature of Genuine Knowledge of God
 Yet another area of difference is raised by the fact that Plantinga’s model has a strong focus on one’s individual theistic and Christian belief. For Ba    individualist knowledge of God would be inconceivable. Given the primacy of God’s revelation in Barth’s theology, it may seem surprising that he sees a role for the church in                of God’s speaking in Christ, as the church is also called the body of Christ. This raises the           any at all, in Plantinga’s model.
