    The next epistemological methodology is rationalism. Of rationalism, Geisler writes, "Rationalism is characterized by its stress on the innate a priori ability of human reason to know truth.

    The Cultural Impact Of Worldview & Apologetics

    We live in a society where most of us recognize the need for standards.

    This is one of the problems we hear so much about in our public education. That is, the need for a National Teachers Exam, where all teachers will be tested by a CERTAIN STANDARD, and if they cannot pass the test, they cannot teach. But there is a lot of opposition to this, because the teachers ...read more

    Christianity Solidified By Apologetics In The Early Days Of The Church

    In the Church today, a debate rages over the relationship of philosophy and theology to one another. Some scholarly believers as epitomized by Norman Geisler argue that, since this world is God's world, both can be used to understand Creation if each of these disciplines are approached from a ...read more

    The older generation, oi vey, they just don't get it do they? They act like we're on some sort of pleasure cruise to heaven. I really can't understand it myself. These churches will be dead in ten, twenty, thirty, or forty years.

     | 1,990 views

    Let's look at the illusions and presuppositions within the culture around us, and ourselves. Then we'll look at the cultural progression, media movements, and the gospel's power to transform cultures.

    "If we as Christians do not speak out as authoritarian governments grow from within or come from outside, eventually we or our children will be the enemy of society and the state.

    Psalms 14:1 says, “The fool says in his heart, 'There is no God'.” Only those seeking to live in utter irrationality can ignore the arguments made in favor of the God of the Bible by C.S. Lewis in “Mere Christianity”. Three of the most compelling issues the skeptic will ...read more
