Why do I believe that God exists and Christianity to be the only true religion? Why do I not accept the popular idea that one religion or philosophical worldview is just as good as another? These are important questions that deserve rational answers.

by Matt Slick

Some people say it is arrogant for Christians to claim that they alone are going to Heaven.  But is it really arrogance?  Arrogance is a negative display of superiority and/or self-importance, but true Christians are not claiming superiority or self-importance.  They claim that trust in Christ alone is what forgives them of their sins, and that all who trust in him can be forgiven as well.  This is not arrogance.  It is confidence in the work of Christ who sacrificed himself on the cross.

In many churches today there seems to be an inordinate emphasis on the beautiful gift of salvation by grace alone, and yet there is so little teaching on the corresponding doctrines of obedience and fruit bearing through the spirit.

The controversy between creationism and evolution is not a disagreement between science and religion. Rather, it is a dispute between advocates of opposing religions: scientists who believe the Bible versus scientists who believe in humanism.  As Roger Oakland says, what one believes about creation and evolution determines what they will believe about morality and a Savior.

What is this evolution doctrine that inspires so much faith in its disciples? How has it turned great scientists into dogmatic opponents of any other viewpoint? Many evolutionary scientists have united their professional influence to forbid any classroom instruction contrary to their own views. Does the theory of evolution merit this kind of fanatical support, which would silence all opposing ideas?

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 – 1900)

Friedrich Nietzsche challenged the foundations of traditional morality and of Christianity. He believed in the creativity and realities of the world in which we live, rather than any contemplation of a world beyond. In The Twilight of the Gods (Götzen-Dämmerung, 1888) he wrote,’I call Christianity the one great curse, the one enormous and innermost perversion, the one great instinct of revenge, for which no means are too venomous, too underhand, too underground and too petty — I call it the one immortal blemish of mankind. … The only excuse for God is that he doesn’t exist.’

When we speak of God’s attributes, we are talking about those characteristics that helps us to understand who He truly is. That which follows is a thorough, yet incomplete list and summary of His attributes.

by Michael Houdmann

In order to understand absolute or universal truth, we must begin by defining truth. Truth, according to the dictionary, is “conformity to fact or actuality; a statement proven to be or accepted as true.” Some people would say that there is no true reality, only perceptions and opinions. Others would argue that there must be some absolute reality or truth.

The God of the Bible demonstrates that He is the Creator by demonstrating that He exists outside of our dimension of time. We humans are irreversibly trapped in this time domain and can only know the present and the past. It is impossible, under natural circumstances, to know anything that is in the future of our time line. If we received information about an event in our future it could only come from a source that existed outside our time domain. Since this could not be a natural source, it would be by default a supernatural source . This is exactly where the God of the Bible claims He dwells. The Bible is the the only book on planet earth that can demonstrate it’s text comes from a being who exists outside our time domain. It does this by telling us things before they happen with incredible accuracy.

The excessive scepticism shown toward the Bible by important historical schools of the eighteenth-and-nineteenth centuries, certain phases of which still appear periodically, has been progressively discredited. Discovery after discovery has established the accuracy of innumerable details, and has brought increased recognition to the value of the Bible as a source of history – W.R. Albright
