Should Christians get involved, or should we just stay out of it? Is the church getting too political? Have we come to a place where only atheists are allowed to make laws? In this episode, Frank does a deep dive into four reasons why Christians need to be involved in politics. He explains why it goes against the greatest commandment to “love thy neighbor” if we choose to stay silent on many of these issues!

Is a Perfect Being Possible?

1. Does Truth Exist?, 2. Does God Exist?, Al Serrato, Apologetics, Atheism, Bible, Christianity, Creation, God

By Al Serrato Many atheists claim that the God described in the Bible is not possible. They raise philosophical challenges meant to show that inherent in the very nature of God are contradictions which make belief in him foolish. One such challenge I encountered went like this: “If God was all that existed back then, what disturbed the eternal equilibrium and compelled him to create? Was he bored? Was he lonely? God is supposed to be perfect. If something is perfect, it is complete–it needs nothing else. If God is perfect, there can be no disequilibrium. There is nothing he needs, nothing he desires, and nothing he must or will do. A God who is perfect does nothing except exist. Therefore, a perfect being that creates is impossible.” Challenges like…

Got Doubts? Stop Doing This!

Apologetics, Atheism, Bible, Christianity, Doubts, Erik Manning, IsJesusAlive, Theology and Christian Apologetics

By Erik Manning From working in public apologetics ministry for a few years now, one common mistake I see from Christians struggling with their faith is that they try and prematurely flex their apologetic muscles by spending tons of time listening to atheist YouTubers, podcasts or reading blogs but they don’t get the bulk of the Christian evidences strong under their belt first. When they come across a few things that stump them, they get troubled, anxious, or even set aside their faith altogether. This is falling prey to what the great English logician Richard Whately called “the fallacy of objections.” Whately defined the fallacy of objections[i] as “showing that there are objections against some plan, theory, or system, and thence inferring that it should be rejected; when that which ought…

A quick scan of the Bible might alert us to some passages that on the surface seem a little unsettling. As a result, atheists and skeptics say that God is immoral because of some of the odd and disturbing things the Bible says. Some of these criticisms have even made their way into the church!

How We Got Our Bible: The KJV Only Movement

Apologetics, Bible, Holy Bible, KJV, Ryan Leasure, theology, Theology and Christian Apologetics

By Ryan Leasure This final post will consider the short-comings of the King James (KJV) Only Movement. Nothing New Under The Sun In many respects, the KJV Only Movement is hardly novel. People have been propping up certain Bible translations since the time of Jesus. One early translation that received this exalted status was the Septuagint (LXX). After the Jewish people went into exile, many remained outside of Israel, even after they were granted permission to return and rebuild. Over the course of centuries, the Jewish people no longer had a grasp on the Hebrew language. Therefore, to make the Old Testament accessible to more people, Jewish scholars translated the Hebrew text into Greek. This translation happened sometime between the third and second centuries BC. Legend has it that seventy-two…

Five Signs of Spiritual Maturity

Apologetics, Bible, christian, Melissa Dougherty, Spiritual, spiritual maturity, Theology and Christian Apologetics

By Melissa Dougherty We all want to be wise in our spiritual walk. We want to grow and make good choices that are right in the long run. We want to exhibit wisdom in all areas of life and be able to be an example for others. But I find it isn’t always the easy road that gets us there. In my experience, I have witnessed what I would consider very mature Christians who exhibit these qualities. I have also seen others who lack them. I want to share what I believe to be five signs of spiritual maturity. These are areas that I see that are scriptural and can be shown by how some Christians respond to certain situations. 1.) They base their reactions on Scripture and God’s character…

Is Christianity good? Isn’t it anti-women and pro-slavery? | with Abdu Murray

Podcast: Play in new window Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Google Podcasts | Android | iHeartRadio | Email | TuneIn | RSS Is Christianity GOOD? Many people in our culture today seem to care less about whether or not Christianity is true, and more about the morality of what it teaches. They say the Bible promotes racism, slavery, sexism, and other forms of social injustice. But are any of those statements true? In his new book, More Than a White Man’s Religion, speaker and global apologist Abdu Murray challenges the pervasive myth that Christianity is an oppressive Western religion and shows believers (and skeptics!) that the gospel message is actually THE SOURCE for the cherished Western ideals of racial and gender equality. Frank and Abdu discuss women in the church, slavery, racism,…
