Apologetic Defense of the faith, the Bible, and Christianity
Are you aware that not everything taught in churches aligns with the foundational principles of the Christian faith? This article delves deep into three common but dangerous teachings that could distort your understanding of the Bible. Discover what they are and how to safeguard your faith.
"Are You Waiting for the Rapture?" delves into the Christian belief in the Second Coming of Jesus Christ, exploring different interpretations and the significance of this event in the context of eschatology. With careful examination of Scriptural evidence, this article aims to clarify misconceptions and shed light on what it means to await the Rapture.
This article presents the argument that the Old Testament does not teach salvation by works, but rather by faith in God. It examines key Old Testament scriptures that relate to the question of salvation, and argues that the overall message of the Old Testament emphasizes salvation as a gift from God that is received by faith, rather than something that is earned by good works.
New Testament Bible scholars David Walls and Max Anders attempt to unravel this conundrum. The problem is, they are quite mistaken. We will look at their full argument, which sounds very biblically grounded, until the missing information is given.
Are some chosen (predestined) to eternal salvation and others to eternal condemnation? The 16th-century Reformer John Calvin wrote: “We define predestination as the eternal design of God, whereby he determined what he wanted to do with each man. For he did not create them all in the same condition but foreordains some to everlasting life and others to eternal damnation.”
Psalm 62:1 Updated American Standard Version (UASV) 62 My soul waits in silence for God only; from him comes my salvation.
Universal Salvation, Christian Universalism, or simply Universalism) is the doctrine that all sinful persons, who are alienated from God, because of God’s great divine love and mercy, will eventually be reconciled to God.
In the history of interpretation, 1 Peter 3:21, especially as part of 3:18-22, is considered one of the more difficult passages in Scripture.
Herein is some serious straight talk for the soul. Do not personalize the words in a condemnatory way but rather take them in as loving guidance.
This shows that there is no such doctrine as ‘Once saved, always saved.’ After we accept Jesus as our Savior and Redeemer and dedicating our lives to God, we have only entered the path to salvation, not finished the race.
