WORDS OF DOUBT
What is doubt? And how is it related to faith and unbelief? Our English word doubt comes from the Latin “dubitare” which is rooted in an Aryan word meaning “two”. So we can start by defining our terms like this: to believe is to be “in one mind” about accepting something as true; to disbelieve is to be “in one mind” about rejecting it. To doubt is to waver between the two, to believe and disbelieve at once and so to be in “two minds”. By Os Guinness, Doubt, page 17
