Many people think so. Frank takes this assertion head on and reveals that it is self-defeating, impractical, and unbiblical. For example, those who claim we can’t judge anyone’s moral beliefs are judging themselves and asserting a moral belief. If we can’t criticize someone’s moral beliefs then how can we say the Nazis were wrong or the Jihadists on 9-11 were wrong? How can you say your position on LGBTQ issues, racism, or climate change is right? How can we follow the teachings of the prophets and Jesus and the apostles? Tune in. There’s a lot of ground covered in…

Cómo la comprensión de la omnisciencia divina ayuda a la ansiedad

Ansiedad, Apologética, Atributos de Dios, Bellator Christi, Brian Chilton, Cristianismo, Cristianos, Dios, Español, Jesucristo, Omniciencia de Dios, Teología, Vida cristiana
Por Brian Chilton Aunque la apologética es uno de los principales objetivos de mi vida, sólo se ve eclipsada por el amor a la teología. Soy un tipo de visión general. Por eso la teología sistemática siempre me ha intrigado. La teología sistemática examina los principales temas de las Escrituras y los organiza en patrones y estructuras. Se podría decir que me he vuelto un poco loco con mis estudios teológicos. Mientras que tengo más de 18 horas de posgrado en apologética, estudios bíblicos e historia de la iglesia; tendré más de 30 horas en estudios de posgrado de teología para cuando termine mi doctorado. Se podría decir que me gusta un poco la teología. Otro aspecto de mi vida que es importante señalar para este artículo es que también…

The Fast But Quiet Creeping of Everyday Cancel Culture: 3 Things Christians Need to Know

Apologetics, Apologetics for Parents, cancel culture, Christianity, Culture CrossExamined, Inclusion, Natasha Crain, Shipwright, tolerance, Tripwire
By Natasha Crain Last month, the CEO of video game maker Tripwire Interactive was made to step down from his job just 53 hours after he tweeted support for the new Texas abortion law (which banned abortion after the baby’s heartbeat can be detected). Here’s the offensive tweet that apparently warranted the loss of his job: “Proud of #USSupremeCourt affirming the Texas law banning abortion for babies with a heartbeat. As an entertainer I don’t get political often. Yet with so many vocal peers on the other side of this issue, I felt it was important to go on the record as a pro-life game developer.” That’s it. That’s it. He merely stated his view that he supports protecting unborn babies from being killed. But having a different view was too much…

Confronting Homosexuality in a Culture of Identity (Part 3)

Apologetics, Christianity, Culture, Culture CrossExamined, Free Thinking Ministries, Homosexuality, Josh Klein, Sin, Theology and Christian Apologetics
By Josh Klein As we enter into the final section of critiquing the objections to the orthodox view of homosexual activity as a sin, it is important to note, again, why I am spending such a significant amount of time on these particular points.  The rallying cry for the liberal theologian has been grace, mercy and love, but as I established in part one (HERE), I believe that true grace, mercy and love must be based on the Truth established in God’s word. In order to have proper compassion we can not entertain falsehood. We intrinsically know this to be true.  If your child believes with all his heart that he can fly and climbs to the top of your house to prove it do you let him jump because it is…
