One can deduce God's existence through reason.

I would like to see your syllogism. If it is properly done and you are right then God's existence is proven with a very high degree of certainty and all honest philosophers will be deists at least.

However, one cannot deduce anything about God or His revealed Word through reason. That's a matter of faith.

I agree but would add "direct personal experience" to "faith."

Thanks for your reply.

Ah, but the philosopher should consciously become the object of the question. IOW the philosophers’ own; reason, morality, emotions, logic, etc… How would an honest philosopher respond to this axiom?

Human conscience does not ultimately come from mindlessness.
