Church Apologetics

This episode will bring this study to a close. We will do a quick review of the previous two episodes and then discuss the empty tomb and hallucination theory.

We will continue our conversation about the resurrection of Jesus as we discuss the evidence used in the Minimal Facts Approach. 

In this episode, we will begin a discussion on how to talk to skeptics or atheists about the historicity of the Jesus' resurrection. This episode will cover the importance of early Church creeds to this discussion. 

This episode will cover several concepts and bring this study to a close.

The conversation continues in this episode as we explore the deity of Christ. This episode will cover the following: Creeds (Creeds predate the New Testament showing that the early Christians believed Jesus is God.) John 1:1 and how John uses the Greek word logos.  The Word of the Lord in the Old Testament

As a Christian apologist, it is crucial that you understand that Jesus is God. Not just a god, but God. Not just a good teacher or prophet, as so often assumed, but the God of all creation. In this episode, we will begin a long exploration of this important topic so you can get good at talking about it with others. 

We've been talking about apologetics–what is is and why the local churches need to teach it. In this episode, we're going to peel back the curtain and see what it really going on behind the scenes. If you understand the spirit of antichrist, you understand the driving force behind most of the spiritual rot we see in society and we need to get good at defending the faith. 

This episode will give some data that shows the spiritual condition of our nation and the Church. All sources can be found in my online apologetics course at churchapologetics.com/courses.

In this first episode, we're going to talk about why this podcast exists, what we aim to do, why we are unique, and what we bring to the body of Christ. We will define apolgetics and begin to discuss why it is necessary in today's hostile culture.
