    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Jan 31, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 952 views

    The question 'Does God exist?' has only two possible direct answers: Either 'yes,' which is theism, and 'no,' which is atheism.

    The agnostic responds with 'I don't know' and 'no one knows,' which is actually an affirmative answer that has never been established, so the question is meaningless because they are not direct answers. (See ...read more

We don’t want to have to go through the hard work of changing what we think and believe. - We want to love God and be a ...read more

    Encountering Jesus Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Dec 18, 2022
     | 1,440 views

    John 1:1-5 sets the stage for the rest of gospel - we get to see the Son of God, the Messiah in every story, every place, every circumstance and with every person. This is what John wants the reader to experience in their own lives, to encounter Jesus, the Son of God, the Messiah.

    John Stott said, “Nothing hinders evangelism more than the widespread loss of confidence in the truth, relevance, and power of the Gospel.” There has been an erosion of convictions in Christian circles concerning: 1. the inspiration and inerrancy of the Bible, 2. the exclusive truth claims of ...read more
