Contributed by Rick Gillespie- Mobley on Apr 9, 2021

No Doubt Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Apr 3, 2021

The famous opponent of Christianity - Voltaire - actually believed the dead could be raised. He believed in a famous scientist of the day who maintained he had done just that. Voltaire rejected Jesus and His real resurrection and embraced a scientist and his false claim.

He devoted himself to attacking and ridiculing Christianity at every opportunity, and he was a ...read more

Beyond A Reasonable Doubt

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 19, 2023

At first the disciples doubted. But when faced with the evidence, they weighed it, tested it, and then acted upon it. Their verdict has stood the test of time. And the grounds on which they stood are the same grounds upon which we can stand.

Why do you suppose is it that, faced with the same data, some people interpret it one way and some people interpret it another? You have only to look at the George Floyd riots – and the other ones later that year - to know that. Not even exhaustive investigations convince people whose minds are ...read more

Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 24, 2023

PERHAPS, THOSE DEEPER IN FAITH WOULD CALL IT A GROUP OF BELIEVERS. WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS OF WHAT “CHURCH” MEANS TO US. IF WE ...read more
