    Lessons In Apologetics #3: Experientialism & Evidentialism

    The next methodology is experientialism. Though fideism strives to make faith alone the justification for religious knowledge or belief, Geisler observes that this faith is ultimately justified in terms of an experience had by the individual (65). To the experientialist, God or the Ultimate is ...read more

     | 4,800 views

    Jesus gave His life for our sins and He raised Himself from the dead for our life. That’s what gives Jesus the authority to be a temple cleanser. Hallelujah! He won our victory over death, hell and the grave and He has the authority to clean us up.

    ​are We Truly The Salt Of The Earth Or Have We Become Bland?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Apr 28, 2023
     | 1,346 views

    What does it mean to be good for nothing? Does it mean that a person is of little worth? How does the concept of salt compare with the Christian?

    What is salt used for and for what is it good for? In Matthew 5:13, assuming a seasoning has no flavor, it has no worth. On the off chance that Christians put forth no attempt to influence their general surroundings, they are of little worth to God. If we are like the world in an excessive amount, ...read more

    Why Is It Necessary To Consecrate Ourselves For Service?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 6, 2024
     | 464 views

    Too often we put everything toward the church building and programs, and at the same time we are denying the church body.

    Previously, David had instructed Solomon about the Temple. Now in this passage of Scripture, the people bring gifts for the Temple. It is feasible for us to be so fixated on a church building that we have disregard of the genuine church, God’s children. Yet, the contrary reaction, ignoring the ...read more

    Why Are We To Teach Our Children To Obey God?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Sep 27, 2023
     | 534 views

    To enable every age to learn how to obey God and to set their expectations in him, God directed that his laws and acts be instructed to children and that they ought to be passed from age to age.

    Monotheism is the faith in only one God. It was an unmistakable component of the Hebrew religion. Numerous old religions trusted in a large number of divine beings. However, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is the God of the entire earth, the only genuine God. This was a significant knowledge ...read more

    Keeping our home fires burning. Is this referring to those who may have a fireplace in their home?

    The Return from A Wedding: Albeit this illustration applies to Israel and the second coming of Christ when He returns to establish His earthly Kingdom, it fundamentally applies to us, the church, as we await His return during the Rapture.
