Why Is Apologetics Important?

Using apologetics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vb2qK2tfeYA Apologetic seeks to give  credible answers to curious questions, to  give a defense. Why is apologetics important?  First  of all, we're commanded to do apologetics. The Bible says “always be prepared to  give an answer to those who ask you for  the hope that is within you” (1 Peter  3:15) We're commanded to do  apologetics. Not only that, it's important  because the non-believing world has  got questions that really matter. What we want to do through apologetics  is show that we love the world enough to  not only hear their questions but help  answer their questions.  Another reason apologetics is important is because  sometimes Christians slip into doubts  and they can struggle with doubts, just  as the atheists can struggle with doubts,  or the polytheists can struggle with doubts,…

Why go to church if it’s just full of hypocrites?

Tough questions
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZgptYt3AP8 In today's video we are going to answer  the question of why should I go to  church when it's just so full of  hypocrites. To answer the question, we have to actually start  with a more foundational question and  that question is: What is hypocrisy? Hypocrisy comes from a Greek word  that was associated with the stage, when  an actor would wear a mask and they  would play a part and pretend to be  someone they're not. Technically the  definition of a hypocrite is someone who  is pretending to be something that  they're not, establishing a standard that  they're actually living in opposition to. However in today's society and in the  church, oftentimes when we talk about  hypocrites, what we mean is someone who's  just failing to live according…

Won’t good moral, ethical people go to heaven?

Tough questions
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxXvWjPDlLU The question of whether good, moral,  ethical people will go to heaven has a  deceptively simple answer. Yes,  absolutely. Good, moral, ethical people  will go to heaven. That's a  relief to most people because most  people consider themselves to be  basically good, moral and ethical. They  compare themselves to other people and  feel “I'm probably above average.” The  problem is that God doesn't grade on a  curve, he grades each person according to  his perfect standard of holiness. The  good news is that good moral, ethical  people will go to heaven but the bad  news is that no human being, except Jesus,  has been truly good and truly moral and  truly ethical. The Bible says in Romans 3:23  that we all fall short of God's  standards. And we don't…

How to be a witness for Christ? – Billy Graham

Witnessing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MtWV0rNg_-A The Christian is to witness for Christ. You witness by the way you live smile, the courtesy, the thoughtfulness, the graciousness. If you live a changed life, in which Christ is living in you and radiating out through you, other people will be attracted to you and they'll say “What's your secret?” You say “I know Jesus Christ” and you have an opportunity to witness for Christ. Witness in the home, put this in your daily work. We are not to be slothful in business but servants in spirit, serving the Lord. We are to witness by the way we perform our work. We are to work faithfully as unto the Lord. You don’t just work just for the employer, you don't work just for the union to make…

HOW DO I KNOW THAT GOD EXISTS?

Tough questions
I believe God exists simply by looking at the marvels of the things in the universe. We use the word cosmos to refer the universe because this word means orderly universe. The universe is indeed orderly! No one would believe that a watch would fall into place all by itself; yet many people choose to believe that the universe, which is far more intricate, came about by chance. The Bible also appeals to God’s creation as proof of His existence. (Rom 1:20 NIV)  For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities–his eternal power and divine nature–have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse. Fine Tuning of the Universe 6 PROOFS FOR GOD’S EXISTENCE SCIENTISTS SPEAK OUT ABOUT EVIDENCE OF…

I AM A FREETHINKER OR I HAVE NOT GIVEN RELIGION MUCH THOUGHT

Tough questions
Free thinkers are people who do not think so much about religion because they are preoccupied with their earthly life. We can ask, “Do you know where you will be if your life were to end suddenly?” Share specific examples when people’s life ended abruptly when they least expected. Eg. Sept 11 World Trade Centre attacks It is important to pursue the things of life but we also need to spare some time to think of what comes after.

I’VE ALWAYS BELIEVED IN GOD OR I GO TO CHURCH REGULARLY

Tough questions
It’s good to hear that you believe in God OR It’s good to hear that you go to church regularly but do you know Jesus as your Savior? The Bible teaches that the only way to God is through Jesus. (John 14:6 NIV)  Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. When we go to God through Jesus, it means that we do not rely on other things to save us. We do not rely on our own goodness. The Bible teaches that we are not saved by our good deeds. Salvation is a free gift from God given to those who put their faith entirely on Jesus Christ. (Eph 2:8-9 NIV)  For it is by grace…

TOUGH QUESTIONS AND HOW TO ANSWER THEM

Witnessing
Our responsibility (1 Pet 3:15 NIV)  Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, Remember that you are not out there to win an argument. Your aim is to win the soul. If you sense that your arguments are pushing him away, then back off. There will be another chance to witness to him. Get to the root issue The best way to conquer an objection is to ask why. Do not try to second-guess his reasons for not wanting to accept the gospel. Why is Christianity the only way? All religions are the same.Won't good, moral, ethical people go to heavenI’ve always believed in God OR I go to…
