Should Christians “Agree to Disagree” About Homosexuality? with Dr. Robert Gagnon

Bible, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Dr. Robert Gagnon, Homosexuality, marriage, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, sexuality, theology
Are Christian views on marriage and sexuality really “outdated,” or has culture slowly talked us into treating clear biblical teaching as a harmless disagreement? In this midweek podcast episode, Frank and Dr. Robert Gagnon continue their discussion by examining what the Bible actually teaches about homosexuality and why sexual ethics sit at the core of Christian morality. Tune in as they answer questions like: When Jesus showed compassion to tax collectors and sexual sinners was he affirming their sins? What was God’s primary purpose for food laws in the Old Testament? Was homosexuality ever an “agree to disagree” issue for Jesus or the Apostle Paul? Why does Paul specifically single out homosexuality instead of other sexual sins in Romans 1? What are the three “new knowledge” questions? What’s the underlying…

A Simple Reason Why the Qur’an Cannot Be the Word of God

4. Is the NT True?, Bible, Islam, Islamic Apologetics, JonathanMclatchie.com, Muslim Dilemma, Quran, World Religions
The Islamic religion claims that the Qur’an, revealed allegedly by the angel Gabriel to the prophet Muhammad beginning in 610 A.D., is the inspired and inerrant word of God. Such an assertion, however, is highly problematic, and many, many arguments could be given to convincingly refute it. In this article, I am going to offer one of those reasons, which I perceive to be the most damning. My argument here can be summarized in syllogistic form as follows: Premise 1: Either the Bible is the Word of God or it is not. Premise 2: If the Bible is the Word of God, the Qur’an is not. Premise 3: If the Bible is not the Word of God, the Qur’an is not. Conclusion: Therefore, the Qur’an is not the Word of…

Bible, borders, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, government, illegal immigration, morality, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
Do you have locks on your doors? What about a fence so your kids can play safely in the yard? The truth is, everyone believes in secure borders and as long as human nature is bent towards evil, borders will be necessary. This week, Frank picks up where he left off from the last episode as he explains what the Bible really says about immigration, borders, and deportations while answering questions like: What are the important distinctions between legal and illegal immigration? How does stopping illegal immigration protect innocent people from evil? What happens when a country becomes too “soft” on enforcing its laws? What’s the difference between imposing religion vs. imposing morality? What is the #1 purpose of government? Isn’t it compassionate to have open borders? How can America…

Is THIS One of the Strongest Evidences for the Bible?

Bible, Christian Apologetics, Christianity, Dr. Frank Turek, Evidence, Jesus, morality, Old Testament, philosophy, Podcast, religion, theology
What did Jesus mean when He said the Old Testament was all about Him? Could figures like Moses, Joshua, and Joseph actually point directly to Him? Once you see how the Bible connects from Genesis to Revelation, you’ll realize it could only have been inspired by a Divine Author. Frank explains how God’s plan for redemption was woven into the very fabric of Scripture long before Jesus walked the earth as he answers questions like: What are the three main arguments for the existence of God? What is typology and how does it demonstrate the divine nature of the Bible? What’s the difference between a theophany and a typology? How can biblical interpretation be divided into three levels? What two ways did Jesus and the apostles interpret the Bible? How…
