Michael Green on the Evidence for Christianity

“The evidence for the Christian case is very strong. Though incapable of compelling faith, it is quite sufficient to warrant it.”

– Michael Green

Runaway World (Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity, 1976), 36.
[HT: Ken Samples]

Book Review: Naturalism and Our Knowledge of Reality by R. Scott Smith

Philosophical naturalism, “a thesis that reality consists solely of the physical, spatiotemporal world,”[1] is the dominant philosophy of the modern West. Starting from the Enlightenment, naturalism has had the effect of creating and sustaining the fact/value split, which in turn has had terrible consequences for our culture. Reason is considered separate from, and superior to, Imagination; empirical facts are considered ‘real’ over against morality, which is shoved off into a corner of private, personal opinions; and a self-fulfilling cycle is created in which scientists declare that only physical explanations of human behavior are viable explanations, and then dismiss what they cannot thereby explain as not real. The church has not been immune to this shift in culture; indeed, a tacit acceptance of the fact/value split has happened in many Christian communities, eroding the basis for solid faith and rendering evangelism both less urgent and less effective.

But what if philosophical naturalism is false, and could be shown to be false? Then the fact/value divide would be recognized as a faulty human construct, not a feature of reality; moral truth would have the same epistemological status as empirical facts; imagination would be rediscovered as an essential way of knowing; and science would be enriched by gaining firm ground for knowledge claims. The stakes are high; it is an endeavor worth pursuing.

How to Get Apologetics in Your Church 2: Why Apologetics Matters to Every Believer and Every Church

Why Apologetics Matters to Every Believer and Every Church

by Lenny Esposito

“Apologetics? What are you apologizing for?”
“Is that a class that husbands are supposed to take?”
“What is that?”

These are questions I hear frequently whenever I mention the study of apologetics. It probably comes as no surprise the word “apologetics” is foreign to most people, even who are a part of the Christian church. Evangelicals, who define themselves by their passion to follow Jesus’ command to “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations”(Matt. 28:17) will usually look quizzically at me whenever I begin discussing the need for apologetics, even though apologetics is an essential part of making disciples. Why would this be?

Terminology Tuesday: Doxastic Voluntarism

Doxastic Voluntarism: The philosophical doctrine according to which people have voluntary control over their beliefs. [...] Philosophers distinguish between two kinds of doxastic voluntarism. Direct doxastic voluntarism claims that people have direct voluntary control over at least some of their beliefs. Indirect doxastic voluntarism, however, supposes that people have indirect voluntary control over at least some of their beliefs, for example, by doing research and evaluating evidence.1

1. For more information, see doxastic voluntarism in the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy.

Philosopher Interview: Robin Collins

Today's interview is with Robin Collins, professor of philosophy at Messiah College. His training is in physics and in philosophy and he is a leading advocate for using the fine-tuning of the universe as a design argument for theism. He talks about his background and training, the fine-tuning argument, the different types of fine-tuning with examples and illustrations (laws, constants and initial conditions), two different ways of presenting the fine-tuning argument, answering common objections to the argument, the uniqueness of life, variations of the multiverse hypothesis, the failure of multiverse theory to explain away fine-tuning, objections to Victor Stenger, upcoming books, simplifying the fine-tuning argument for practical use, common mistakes when presenting the argument, the most common objection (who designed God?), and more.

Robert Jenkin on Christian Martyrs

“Martyrs are Witnesses, . . . no other Religion was ever propagated by Witnesses, who had seen, and heard, and been every way conversant in what they witnessed concerning the Principles of their Religion; no Religion besides was ever preach’d by Men, who, after an unalterable Constancy under all Kinds of Sufferings, at last died for asserting it, when they must of necessity have known, whether it were true or false, and therefore certainly knew it to be true, or else they would never have suffer’d and died in that Manner for it.”

— Robert Jenkin
Evidence and Certainty of the Christian Religion (1734)

Book Review: Written on the Heart: The Case for Natural Law by J. Budziszewski

How should we approach the question of the nature and limit of government? Should the government enforce morality? And how does the theory of natural law tie in with these questions? In his book Written on the Heart: The Case for Natural Law, J. Budziszewski takes readers through the major players in the fields of philosophy and ethics, and he triumphantly demonstrates how natural law helps us in answering our modern political and ethical questions.


This book is divided into five units in which Budziszewski devotes the first four units to Aristotle, Thomas Aquinas, John Locke, and John Stuart Mill, respectively. The last unit is spent defending a Christian view of natural law and how recent thinkers have taken and applied the natural law tradition to contemporary issues.

New Testament Introduction Series by Ben Witherington

Bible scholar Ben Witherington has an excellent course over at BiblicalTraining.org on New Testament Introduction. This is a 17-part audio series, with each lecture over an hour long. The course covers 5 main subject areas: 1) the history of the period in which the NT was written; 2) the social and cultural milieu in which early Christians lived; 3) the practice of the scholarly study of the NT; 4) questions of introduction about the books of the NT; and 5) the practice of exegesis and hermeneutics. Definitely worth examining, along with the other great resources provided by BiblicalTraining.org.

Check out New Testament Introduction here.
Enjoy.

Terminology Tuesday: Testimonium Flavianum

Testimonium Flavianum: The reference in Book 18, Chapter 3, 3 of Josephus' Antiquities to the execution of Jesus by Pontius Pilate. The general scholarly view is that while the Testimonium Flavianum is most likely not authentic in its entirety, it is broadly agreed upon that it originally consisted of an authentic nucleus with a reference to the execution of Jesus by Pilate which was then subject to Christian interpolation.

Without any interpolations, the original passage would have read like:

Now there was about this time Jesus, a wise man. For he was a doer of startling deeds, a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. And he gained a following both among many Jews and many of Greek origin. And when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men amongst us, condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not forsake him. And the tribe of Christians, so named from him, are not extinct at this day.1

1. For more information, see Josephus on Jesus on Wikipedia or this interview with historian Paul L. Maier.

How to Get Apologetics in Your Church: Series 2

Back in 2010, Apologetics 315 created a 21-part series, ebook, and podcast devoted to all aspects of getting apologetics into your local church: How to Get Apologetics in Your Church. From small group studies and movie nights, to apologetic sermons and resources, this series became a useful catalyst for many looking for tips and tools for starting their own initiatives. But there's more...

Next week, part 2 of this series will launch, with even more essays from a variety of contributors. So why announce this now? Because you might have something to contribute. Do you run any type of apologetics group in your church? If you would like to contribute a short essay about your church-based apologetics group please contact info (at) apologetics315.com.

Until next week, check out series one of How to Get Apologetics in Your Church.

Greg Koukl on Faith, Reason & Rationality

"So let's set the record straight. Faith is not the opposite of reason. The opposite of faith is unbelief. And reason is not the opposite of faith. The opposite of reason is irrationality. Do some Christians have irrational faith? Sure. Do some skeptics have unreasonable unbelief? You bet. It works both ways."

—Greg Koukl

Book Review: Excellence: The Character of God and the Pursuit of Scholarly Virtue by Andreas J. Kostenberger

A good many books have arrived on bookshelves which broadly address the Christian intellect. Surely the grandfather of them all is Harry Blamaires’ The Christian Mind (1963). Others followed, all adding to the essential discussion, pleading with Evangelicals to honor God’s gift of intellectual pursuit left with humanity. A biblical-theological case established in each tome structured direction in overview fashion that The Church bore responsibility for Christian thinking. Andreas J. Köstenberger now adds personal depth to the entire dialogue. Excellence maintains that a believing scholar’s intellectual pursuits must always originate from Jesus’ transformation of the Christian which changes the mind.

Terminology Tuesday: Predication

Predication (analogical, univocal, equivocal): Application of descriptive terms, or "predicates," to God. If one assumes (as many do) that human language gets its meaning from its application to finite, created objects, then there is a difficulty as to how such terms can apply to God. Recently, Richard Swinburne and William Alston have argued that some predicates can apply univocally (with the same meaning) both to God and to creatures. Thomas Aquinas held that positive terms can be applied to God—but only analogically. According to such a view, we do not know exactly what we mean when we say God is good, for example, but only that his goodness resembles (though exceeds) the goodness of creatures. Equivocal predication is application of the same term to God and creatures with different meanings.1

Charles Swindoll on the Resurrection

"The benefits [of the resurrection] are innumerable.
To list a few: Our illnesses don't seem nearly so final;
Our fears fade and lose their grip;
Our grief over those who have gone on is diminished;
Our desires to press on in spite of the obstacles is rejuvenated...
Our identity as Christians is strengthened as we stand in the lengthening shadows of saints down through the centuries, who have always answered back in antiphonal voice:
'He is risen, indeed!'"

— Charles Swindoll

Review: Why It Doesn't Matter What You Believe If It's Not True: Is There Absolute Truth? by Stephen McAndrew

This reviewer is always on the look out for books that take different apologetic issues and put them into bite-sized chunks that a complete beginner can understand and begin interacting with. That task is quite difficult because many authors take concepts and mutilate them in such a way that the beginner would actually be more confused than when they began.

The opportunity was given a while back to review a copy of Stephen McAndrew's new book Why It Doesn't Matter What YOU Believe If It’s Not True. The book is a short read of only 86 pages. The eleven chapters break up the short book into sections that are extremely manageable for those with only spurts of time to read or need time to digest. This format holds much promise to being a great introductory book. But does it come through?

Terminology Tuesday: Properly Basic Beliefs

Properly Basic Beliefs: According to foundationalism, there are beliefs that are called properly basic beliefs. Such beliefs are basic in the sense that they are not justified by or based on other beliefs. If we use the term evidence to mean "propositional evidence," then evidence refers to cases in which a person S believes a proposition and this serves as the basis for believing another proposition. A properly basic belief is basic in the sense that it is not believed on the basis of evidence, that is, it is not based on belief in another proposition.1
