If Christianity’s True – Ep. 135 – Why Should I Believe Christianity? – Defying Death & What Now?
If Christianity’s True We conclude Dr. James Anderson’s book by looking at what if Christianity’s true. We discuss alternative explanations to the Resurrection and see that they don’t rise to the occasion. Did Jesus swoon? Have His body stolen? By the disciples? By the Romans/Jewish leaders? Was it all an illusion? There are good reasons […]
Andreas Köstenberger Interview – Ep. 124 – Andreas Köstenberger Interview
He’s Written On Everything! We are beyond delighted and honored to sit down and interview Andreas Köstenberger. Dr. Köstenberger was a co-author in one of our recent chosen books, “Truth In A Culture Of Doubt” which was a response to many of Bart Ehrman’s writings and showing that Christianity provides answers to the critical historians’ […]
Salvation – Ep. 123 – Why Should I Believe Christianity – Christianity As A Worldview – Part 3
Salvation – The Relationship Of God & Man Salvation is the third and final aspect of the Christian worldview to cover to set the stage for why one should believe Christianity. We see that God is able to speak and does speak to His creation. And what He says echoes in eternity. Even while being […]
Ep. 116 – Truth In A Culture Of Doubt – Reasons To Believe
Rose From The Dead? Rose From The Dead! Jesus rose from the dead. That’s the claim of The New Testament. We close our book with a look at the response to this claim from Bart Ehrman’s challenges to it. Was Jesus even buried? Did the disciples hallucinate the resurrected Jesus? Did the disciples just make […]
Ep. 115 – Truth In A Culture Of Doubt – Are Many New Testament Documents Forged? – Part 3
Apocryphal Books Of The Bible? Are there lost, Apocryphal books that should have been included in The Bible? Finishing the chapter on how the New Testament should include the authentic books that are there, we look at why not other books. Why do we include only the 27 books and not 12 others or Gnostic […]
Ep. 114 – Are Many New Testament Documents Forged? – Part 2
Who Wrote The Bible? Who wrote The Bible? The next two claims of forgery against the New Testament are the allegations of illiterate authors & false attribution to authors. Were the NT writers too illiterate to write their documents & couldn’t find another way to get their ideas down to be disseminated to others? Is […]
Ep. 113 – Are Many New Testament Documents Forged? – Part 1
Fraud In The Bible? Fraud in The Bible by the New Testament authors? Say it isn’t so! Not really. The claim that anonymous authors, centuries after the life of Christ and the apostles were the real authors of the Christian Scriptures is false. In fact, without a full-on skeptical presuppositional worldview, one could see just […]
Ep. 111 – Truth In A Culture Of Doubt – Were There Many Christianities – Part 2
Continuing our look at the Walter Bauer hypothesis, we look at 3 more claims about early Christian orthodoxy. Were the leaders too biased to be good witnesses and chose what teachings made it in? Then the claim that central church leaders won by force of will what beliefs came out on top. Finally, moving into […]
Ep. 75 – Finding Truth – Free-Loading Atheists – Part 2
We finish up Principle 5 by continuing to present examples of atheists freely admitting to stealing from Christianity’s superior worldview. So much so that non-theists attempt to elbow into areas addressed previously by Christianity – including atheist churches. Along with a warning about scientism, Christians are encouraged to present the Gospel with love and respect.
Ep. 74 – Finding Truth – Free-Loading Atheists – Part 1
Onto Principle 5! We talk about how and why the Christian should present the Christian worldview as the superior and most consistent one. We then go over where the atheist(s) freely admit to stealing from the Christian worldview in order to come to the beliefs they want to rather than the outcomes their beliefs would demand.
