We should not be surprised when there are people who scoff, or ridicule, those who believe in God. We should seek to answer their questions without being judgmental against them for their unbelief. There are many reasons for people’s doubts, but we must not forget that Scripture tells us to “have mercy on those who doubt” (Jude 22). Christianity is not a psychological crutch for those who doubt, but a supernatural cure for the condition of people everywhere.
Lecture 3 – Joseph, the Favored Son (Genesis 37:2-36)
Apologetics seeks to pave the way for that gospel presentation by first answering any questions or objections a person my have about Christianity. To apologize means to make a defense for something. So as we think about “Apologizing Christianity,” we are NOT apologizing FOR Christianity, but explaining the reasons behind our beliefs in Jesus Christ and the Bible.
Lecture 2 – Joseph’s Dysfunctional Family (Genesis 30:24 – 37:2)
Lecture 1 – Introduction
We will be looking again at Paul’s letter to the church in Ephesus this week. Last week, we studied from Ephesians 2. Today, we will focus our attention on the last half of Ephesians 3 and the first part of Ephesians 4.
Part 3. Our mission is to…Unite People to One Another. We have been reconciled to God and other believers, brought near to God by the Spirit, made citizens in the kingdom of God, being built up together as a holy temple in the Lord.
