The meaning of justification in the classical definition of knowledge in religious epistemology

In this study, it will be argued that the concept analysis can find a solution to this problem in the light of mental evidence by considering the problem of justification in religious epistemology from the point of view of the classical definition of knowledge. From this point of view, in the first chapter, a general framework of epistemology will be drawn up with the definition of classical knowledge that has been going on since Plato. In the following, the justification, which is the problematic part of the definition, will be discussed and its reflections in religious epistemology will be touched upon. Basically, the general framework of the subject will be drawn in terms of internalism and externalism by pointing out the importance of religious epistemology to the problem of justification that progresses in the field of reason and faith. In the second chapter, evidentialism, fideism and reformist epistemology, which offer different perspectives on the justification of religious epistemology, will be discussed in detail and the issue will be discussed by trying to introduce three general points of view. In the third chapter, it will be argued that religious facts can be justified in a rational way by concept analysis by considering evidence from the general attitude in justification. In the sequel, it will be shown that issues that are considered doubtful or inconsistent can be solved by the concept analysis by giving an example of the omnipotent paradox and offering a solution.
