What is Logos? A look at John 1:1-3

Apologetics, Christianity, christology, FreeThinkingMinistries.com, Jesus, John 1:1-13, logos, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics, Thomas Moller
Introduction One of my favorite passages in the gospels is the prologue of John (1:1-18). I particularly find the first three verses, John 1:1-3, and the use of the “Word”, or Logos in Greek, interesting. In those three verses, a type of creation narrative arises, revolving around Logos, in which Logos is described as being divine, eternal, and the creator. Later in the prologue, in John 1:17, Logos is revealed to be Jesus Christ, thus applying the description of Logos as divine, eternal, and the creator to Jesus Christ. John 1:1-3 states, “In the beginning was the Word [Logos], and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made…

The Top 3 Things Christians Need to Know About Government, Evolution, and the Health Crisis with Dr. Jay Richards

Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. Jay Richards, Evolution, government, health, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
In our final podcast episode of 2024, Dr. Jay Richards returns to discuss three essential topics that often cause confusion and dissent among both Christians and non-Christians in America today: the history and purpose of government, macroevolutionary theory vs. intelligent design, and the root cause of chronic disease. Together, Frank and Jay address questions like: What is the biblical purpose of government? Where do our rights come from? How should we define American exceptionalism? Was America founded on Christianity or something else? What did Thomas Jefferson mean by “separation of church and state” and how has the term been misused and misunderstood? What is macroevolutionary theory and why does it fail to explain the origin of life and new life forms? How should Christians respond to the “God of the…

3 Reasons to Believe in God

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Arguments for God, Christianity, design argument, First Cause Argument, God’s existence, Gospel, IsChristianityTrue.Wordpress.com, Kalam, Moral Argument, Steve Lee
In presenting apologetics there are certain points I focus on in order to systematically examine the evidence for the truth of Christianity.  While there are many other areas of interest and concern for the apologist, these areas are essential in determining the veracity of the Christian religion. These main features of Christianity include: The existence of God The reliability of the Bible The divine claims of Jesus the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus. I organize these four points in the form of a question, which can possibly be answered yes or no, in order to be objective in the analysis. I’d like to focus on point #1 by asking the question: “Does God Exist?” Does God Exist? Obviously, if God doesn’t exist then Christianity cannot be true.  It is…
