Book Description
The book's title Knowing Why They Lied; Apologetics for Dummies is intended to convey that the average churchgoing Christian might benefit by a handy evangelism tool that anyone, Christian or non, can evaluate, share, or use. Hence the "for Dummies" application, not suggesting that anyone is dumb, but that many are handicapped in their ability to define or answer false criticisms, even sometimes believing falsehoods to be true. Ignorance is never dumb but is always correctable. The "WHY" aspect concerns the fact that sincere people, sometimes especially within our schools, are not aware of the false doctrines often delivered as fact. Being sincere, yet mistaken, is not being truthful. Not being truthful is in fact lying. Through no fault of their own, many are even now speaking erroneously in classes to our children. This author believes that this can lead to bad behaviors even as deep as suicide and school shootings. Hopefully, we can turn such behaviors around, by addressing issues in more accurate ways, and by using more honest information in our school systems.

The Resurrection and Its Apologetics
Author: Michael J. Alter
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
Christians believe that Jesus is the Messiah and the Savior of the human race, who died for the sins of humanity on the cross (1 Cor. 15:3). The next verse adds the essential “that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures.” In Jesus’ Death and Burial, Michael Alter critically surveys the writings of leading Christian apologists about Jesus’ death and burial, and then explains why detractors and skeptics cannot accept the New Testament claim that Jesus died on the cross and received a tomb burial. The Resurrection and Its Apologetics is an in-depth series that significantly contributes both to the academic and non-academic world reviewing and analyzing the most salient claims put forward in defense of Jesus’ death, burial, and bodily resurrection from the dead.

Revisiting the Bible
Author: Anonymous Christian
Publisher: Anonymous Christian
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 3725
Book Description
Revisiting the Bible is a free book about the Book of Revelation, artificial super intelligence, fulfilled prophecy, bad apologetics and various insights. This book is rather long with some two-hundred chapters and because of this fact it cannot be easily summarized. That said the foremost purpose of this book is a detailed commentary on the Book of Revelation to explain the nature of the beast, or the antichrist, and the mysteries of God. Although given the length of the commentary there is more theology than talk about the beast or artificial super intelligence. The book is also available as a completely free download on my website.
