    The Da Vinci Code: Fact Or Fiction (Part Five: Is Absolute Truth Real?)

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on May 12, 2006
    based on 12 ratings
     | 1,734 views

    This message deals with the likely possibility of people choosing to believe both the Bible and The Da Vinci Code. It addresses the issues of absolute truth and syncretism.

    The Issue: “Few will choose to totally dismiss the Bible and believe instead in The Da Vinci Code; there is a greater danger, though, of many choosing to believe both the Bible and The Da Vinci Code.” - I imagine that relatively few people will choose, after having read The Da Vinci Code, to ...read more

     | 5,080 views

    God’s wrath is difficult both to understand and to believe.

    Most Christians find the wrath of God difficult to understand and believe. The idea of a wrathful God has been for some Christians a roadblock to faith.

    There are times we are tempted to accuse God of negligence in the way he runs our lives. But God reminds us that we can trust him.

    JOB 38:1-11 QUESTIONING GOD I was talking to a friend of mine the other day, who is also a pastor, and he was describing to me one of his members. “This member is a modern-day Job,” he told me. Why do you think he described one of his members as a “modern-day Job”? I’m sure it’s because of all ...read more

Who do you say that I am?” The gospels ...read more
