Truth, Love, & Rage Bait

Apologetics, Candace Owens, Charlie Kirk Assassination, Christianity, exploitation, Gospel, Gossip, https://www.facebook.com/JohnDFerrer, John Ferrer, Legislating Morality, Culture & Politics, Politics, Slander, Tyler Robinson
Thousands of amateur investigators across the interwebs are scouring the Charlie Kirk assassination case. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. Many of them pose sincere questions and innocent curiosity. There should be no problem with a healthy exercise of free speech, free inquiry, and the marketplace of ideas. Mainstream narratives deserve a fair share of testing since they can’t all be trusted. But being popular, mainstream, or conventional never made anything false. Sometimes the truth is so widely recognized it becomes the majority view. Truth isn’t always sensationalistic. Sometimes it’s boring and predictable. Truth doesn’t care to entertain anyone. It just is what it is. But not every question is a fair question either. Sometimes questions are cloaked accusation, mean-spirited insinuation, manipulative suggestion, and trick questions designed not to reveal…

What is the Gospel?

Apologetics, Christianity, Evangelism, FreeThinkingsMinistries, Gospel, Mere Christianity, Revival, soteriology, Theology and Christian Apologetics, Thomas Moller
Recent events have shaken the world. The various murders, and specifically the assassination of Charlie Kirk, have left many Americans with questions of justice, the future, and truth. Our world has never seemed so dark, and the divide in America has never seemed so wide. Yet despite the horror and darkness of the past few weeks, hope is on the horizon. Revival. Never, in recent years, has the Church had such a potential harvest laid at our feet. God is truly turning evil to good with millions of Americans returning to church for the first time (Gen 50:20). If revival is coming, we must be ready. We need to be prepared for the harvest (Luke 10:2). But how do we prepare? What is our greatest tool? The Gospel. Why is…

Why did World Relief condemn the Trump Administration for ordering further vetting of Afghan refugees and what happened the very next day? What does the Bible say about legal and illegal immigrants? Was Jesus a refugee? Is Biola University going woke? And…

Moral Argument 3.0: How Neuroscience Bolsters Objective Morality

2. Does God Exist?, Apologetics, Christianity, Gospel, Immaterial Soul, materialism, Mind-Body, Moral Argument, naturalism, neuroscience, objective morality, Richard Stevens, Salvo Magazine, scientific apologetics
Thinkers for centuries have strived to develop arguments to prove the existence of God.[i] Who’d have thought that neurosurgeons would find keys to rocket the traditional Moral Argument into the 21st century? The earlier moral arguments used reason, logic, and common internal thoughts and human experience to make a case for God’s existence.[ii] The Immortal Mind (2025),[iii] by brain surgeon Dr. Michael Egnor and mind researcher Denyse O’Leary, takes the venerable case to new cerebral and spiritual levels. Argument 1.0 The Standard Moral Law Argument   The Moral Law Argument (Argument 1.0) includes three main Elements:[iv] Every law requires a lawgiver. Moral laws exist. Therefore, there is a moral lawgiver. These “laws” refer to rules governing human behavior, not physical or mathematical laws. Argument 1.0 is inductive, meaning it draws from…

The Book of Acts is High-Resolution Reportage, Part 2

1st Century, 4. Is the NT True?, Apologetics, Apostle Paul, Book of Acts, Christianity, Gospel, historical apologetics, Jonathan McLatchie.com, reliability of the Bible
[Editor’s note: in Part 1 of this two-part series, Jonathan explained this method of historical argument known as “Undesigned Coincidences.” These are lines of evidence that emerge when one part of Scripture explains, resolves, or entails, unplanned detail from elsewhere in Scripture and the the wider historical record. Jonathan focuses on the evidence from four books of Paul – Romans, 1st and 2nd Corinthians, and Galatians – comparing them with narrative details in the book of Acts.]        Paul in Macedonia Paul indicates that he is writing 2 Corinthians from Macedonia while on route to Corinth (2 Cor 9:1-5). This would place it very shortly following the riot in Ephesus, hence at approximately Acts 20:1. This appears to have been on Paul’s mind in 2 Corinthians 1:8-10: “For we do not want…

The Book of Acts is High-Resolution Reportage Part 1

1st Century, Apologetics, Apostle Paul, Book of Acts, Christianity, CrossExamined, Gospel, historical apologetics, Jonathan McLatchie.com, reliability of the Bible
The book of Acts is one of the most fascinating books of the Bible. No other book matches its level of historical corroboration from both internal and external sources. The abundant evidence, that we shall sample in this essay, of Luke’s credibility and meticulousness as a historian, indirectly supports the credibility of Luke’s gospel (which is widely acknowledged to be written by the same author). Luke claims to have been a travelling companion of Paul for much of his travels (Acts 16-10-17 and later again from Acts 20:5, travelling with Paul as far as Rome). This places Luke in Jerusalem in Acts 21 when Paul visited the Jerusalem leaders. Luke tells us that “all the elders [including James] were present” (Acts 21:18). Luke also implies that he remained in proximity…
