#2106 The Bible – and its believers – are increasingly under hostile attack.
Are you prepared to “earnestly contend for the faith”?
“God says it and I believe it.” Issue settled, right? Or wrong? This common response may satisfy the faith of some who struggle with answering difficult questions – but such a reply does little to ward off assaults from skeptics, let alone “convince the gainsayers” by intelligently “giving a reason of the hope that is within you.” (1 Peter 3:15)
Sadly, most critics who wield tough questions with sarcasm do not expect an intelligent response; and tragically, many dismiss the truth when they do get one. However, what about those who legitimately question the Christian faith – including weak or battle-weary believers whose spiritual convictions may be hanging by a thread?
This indispensable “field guide” assists readers – sincere skeptics and believers alike – with more than 40 years’ experience in seeking (and finding) biblical answers to life’s most challenging questions:
✓ Why does God allow so much suffering and evil in the world?
✓ What about all the “contradictions” in the Bible?
✓ Are some people predestined by God to go to hell?
✓ Why would a merciful God punish people who have never heard of Christ?
✓ How can one tell the difference between God’s true light and Satan’s seductive counterfeits?
Readers will be encouraged in their search for truth to find that not only is it commendable to test God’s Word, it is actually commanded by Scripture itself: “Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.” (1 Thessalonians 5:21)
“For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds; casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:4-5). “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). The book that needs to be read by every serious Christian.
