A 10 second argument for God
My way of stating the position is a little more personal / informal, and is something I call my “10 second argument for God”.
When Church is just an hour on Sunday
Both the clique and the crowd are foreign to many of us who grew up in more family-styled churches decades ago, but they are regrettably common in many houses of worship today.
Unlocking the apologetics secrets of the Apostle Paul
Looking at the history of Christian apologetics, I always thought it odd that no one ever undertook any in-depth research to publish a book on how God’s top evangelist outside of Christ Himself – the Apostle Paul – used apologetics to evangelize people.
The godfathers of rebellion
The heart of rebellion is pride, and when it comes to the sin of pride, the Bible makes it clear who was Patient Zero.
Right thinking on choosing the lesser of two evils
Clearly our fallen world presents us with situations where absolute laws conflict, so of the three possible Christian choices, we’re left with the Conflicting and Graded Absolutism options.
Why 'the church isn’t perfect' line has become a cop-out
Christianity isn’t the problem of evil or any other apologetics-styled objection. Instead, it’s the lives lived out by professing Christians.
The antichrist cycle
In short, the same type of anarchy that ancient Rome experienced is occurring today.
If God wants everyone saved, why isn’t everyone saved?
If God is all-powerful and sovereign over everything and wants everyone saved, why did He craft such a ‘foolish’ salvation message that most find absurd and end up rejecting? Put another way, does God get what He wants or not?
People of the lie
“The biggest advantage of extremism is that it makes you feel good because it provides you with enemies. Let me explain: the great thing about having enemies is that you can pretend that all the badness in the whole world is in your enemies and all the goodness in the whole world is in you."
Yes, you can understand the Bible
The good news is, you can absolutely understand the Bible. Let me provide five quick steps that will put you on the right path.
How to stop being miserable
I’ve been making myself miserable lately. In the same way it must have deeply hurt Daniel to see Israel taken captive by Babylon, it truly sickens my soul to see a new Babylonian captivity happening in America.
The question no one asks about God and Hell
When you study theology, you’ll come to a field called ‘theology proper’, which is a deep-dive into the attributes of God.
Science gets canceled by post-truth culture
Watching the once-safe truths of science now fall to personal preference is a reminder of the cognitive dissonance and strong rebellious spirit inside all of us.
The consequences of losing both fear and love in America
While fear acts as a rudimentary deterrent to bad behavior, a better way to stop lawbreaking is to change the heart of the lawbreaker.
Was Jesus’ silence violence?
Given the recent “Silence is Violence” media push, I wonder what our current crop of social justice warriors would say about Jesus’ perceived silence in the gospels on the wrongs they passionately decry today?
Release the beast
Society has devolved to the point where they see each of God’s constraints in a negative sense and view them as uncomfortably restrictive so they do what is right in their own eyes.
Don't want God? No justice
The fact is that laws always imply a law giver. And if there is an objective moral law, there is a moral law giver.
Facts don't matter to the already-made-up mind
I pointed out to them that they were committing the genetic fallacy by critiquing the source of information rather than the data itself, along with the double standard they were using (should I not listen to them or the NYT because both are “ultra-liberal”?)
The evil you don't talk about
