Pastor Rob's Christianity on Trial
 

Our lectures will examine Jesus’ self-description as the ‘image of the Father’.   This is the last in our Apologetics Series.  We will apply the same intellectual rigor to God’s Created Order. 

 

We continue our methodology of examining the biblical case for Christianity using rules of evidence.  We will examine the biblical witness, philosophical & scientific arguments demonstrating objective proofs of God’s existence. 

 

“Yes, No, Maybe So!” was a children’s taunt once upon a time. In an agnostic, atheistic and secular culture increasingly hostile to belief in God, Peter’s words could not be more poignant, …in your hearts sanctify Christ as Lord. Always be ready to make your defense to anyone who demands from you an accounting for the hope that is in you; 16 yet do it with gentleness and reverence.” 1 Peter 3:15-16  So, in our final Semester, we will prepare your hearts & minds with the elemental principles, arguments and proofs to clearly demonstrate a confession of Faith in God, the Creator of heaven and Earth.
