Series Introduction: James Talarico is not the first politician to invoke the Christian faith or the Bible to score political points. He is, however, the first I am aware of who has been enrolled in seminary while running for office. Talarico is certainly popular among prospective voters, but he has received significant scrutiny from pastors and academics because of his theological statements. He may be a faithful representative of his denomination, but he has brought the views of that denomination into the limelight due to the widespread publicity of his senatorial race. We do not elect political candidates for their religious beliefs, though we may have reason to support or oppose a candidate when their religious beliefs affect their policy positions. Talarico is a politician and not a pastor, and…

Michel-Yves Bollore’ and Olivier Bonnassies recently wrote a massive treatise defending the existence of God titled God: The Science, the Evidence—The Dawn of a Revolution. Three things are very intriguing about this book. First, neither Bollore nor Bonnassies is a theologian. In fact, both are notable scientists. Bollore serves as a computer engineer and has a master’s and a doctorate from the University of Paris Dauphine. Bonnassies is a graduate of Polytechnique (X86) and the Institut Catholique de Paris with a license in theology. Bonnassies started up numerous businesses over the span of his career. Second, both Bollore and Bonnassies approach the topic of God from a strictly scientific perspective. In their massive tome, they offer many reasons to believe in the God of the Christian faith. Their main argument is that…

Did Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John really write the Gospels? Or were these books actually anonymous from the beginning? And if they were, what would that mean for Christianity? This week, Frank sits down with New Testament scholar Dr. Mike Licona to unpack his latest debate with Bart Ehrman, one of the world’s best-known New Testament skeptics. What did Mike actually agree with Bart on? And where does he think Bart leans too heavily on speculation instead of the historical evidence? Together, they unpack Bart’s biggest objections and tackle questions like: Why does Bart Ehrman think the Gospels are anonymous, and is he right? Why does it matter who wrote the Gospels? What if the Gospel writers weren’t eyewitnesses? Were the Gospel writers really too uneducated to write the Gospels?…

4 Rebuttals to the Muslim Case Against Christianity

4. Is the NT True?, Apologetics, Christianity, christology, debate, Gospel, Islam, Jason Jimenez, Jesus, StandStrongMinistries.Org, Theology and Christian Apologetics, Trinity
What if someone boldly claimed that Jesus himself said He wasn’t God? How would you tackle this intriguing challenge? Let’s dive into this thought-provoking dilemma together. Recently, a viral video titled “Christianity DEBUNKED in Less Than 1 Minute” sparked this very debate presented by a Muslim named Hamza. Essentially, here’s how Hamza frames his argument: If the Father is the only true God, then Jesus cannot be God. If Jesus is God, he must be lying about the Father being the only true God. If Jesus is lying, he cannot be God. Therefore, Jesus debunks Christianity. In this article, I will present four rebuttals to Hamza’s case concerning John 17:3. These responses aim to provide a solid counterargument while offering a reasonable defense and explanation of the divinity of Jesus…

When did “just asking questions” become enough to convict someone in the court of public opinion? This week, Frank takes a closer look at several claims made by Candace Owens surrounding Charlie Kirk’s murder and asks a simple question: What does the evidence actually show? As he responds to listener emails about the alleged discrepancies in his account of the September 10th events and addresses the so-called CPR contradiction, Frank explains why possibilities, coincidences, and speculation should never be confused with proof. This episode will tackle questions like: Why do minor differences between eyewitness accounts often strengthen rather than weaken credibility? What makes evidence different from speculation, suspicion, or “gut feelings”? How does confirmation bias keep people believing weak arguments? How have logical fallacies fueled conspiracy theories surrounding Charlie’s murder?…

[Editor’s Note: This blog was originally posted on Mama Bear Apologetics] Do you have a sciency cub? Do they make comments about things like “the starlight problem” and “multiverse theory” that make your eyes glaze over? No fear! We got you, mama bears! Our friend, Michael, is not only a sciency-bear, but a really good filmmaker to boot! Let’s face it: much of our Western culture has been steeped in an atheistic worldview where science and reason are seen as the tools of the naturalist. The Christian worldview, meanwhile, is relegated to blind faith. But is this actually true? Do we Christians have any evidence for a Creator? What is the best explanation for the way things are? Questions like these and more are the target of Michael Ray Lewis’…
