The world delights in criticizing the Bible, seeking to find fault with it in any way possible. But when we address these complaints, we find them to be groundless. Examining the Bible for ourselves reveals a book that is not only a beautifully written unique masterpiece but also one that is sound and lacking in contradictions.
There are over 40 different authors of the 66 books of the Bible, which were written over a time span of about 1500 years on three continents. Despite this diversity, the books have a comprehensive unity with internal themes as well as external events.
Can we trust the Bible? This question concerns one of the fundamental pillars of the Christian faith: the authority of Scripture. Listen in as Ken Boa discusses how to address this question.
In the 19th century, individual cells were thought to be the simple building blocks that made up complex organisms. Since then, however, we have discovered that the cells themselves are just as complex as the organisms they are a part of. The more we study them, the more astonishing and elegant they appear.
From a scientific perspective, the probability for the existence of life on a given planet is practically zero. Yet here we are. How do we explain how we got here?
Are science and faith opposed to each other? What empirical evidence is there for a Creator of the universe? Ken Boa addresses these questions in his series: Science, Faith, and Reason.
J. I. Packer (1926–2020) loved the Lord, a fact that clearly shines through his writing. He, like C.S. Lewis, communicated profound spiritual truths in mere sentences. The following quotes display his rich biblical theology.
C.S. Lewis had a knack for communicating profound biblical truth in a simple way that captures the imagination. His pithy statements illuminate the importance of Christianity and the wonders of the world to come.
The greatness of God is on marvelous display in the universe. We need only take a closer look at everything around us in order to see it and glorify Him for the gratuitous beauty He has put into creation.
The more we look at creation, the more we see that evolution and natural selection cannot account for the complexity and gratuitous beauty we see.
