Answers for the Honest Skeptic Part 1 by Ted Even Pdf

It is true that mankind himself has probably always been characterized with the main desire to determine just what "spiritual truth" really is. For centuries and centuries, highly educated philosophers and religious men alike have always stood toe-to-toe disagreeing on "spiritual truth." Since they cannot all be right, this would strongly indicate that education, religious persuasion, or even intelligence has little to do with our discovery of the "real spiritual truth." For if these things were truly critical, then obviously, the "spiritual/intellectual giants" of history would have agreed on spiritual truth long ago. In this work, author Ted Even endeavors to show that the disagreeing intellectuals/skeptics of the past only serve to reinforce Christ's radical statement about our need to just "become like little children" in order to discover the spiritual truth and that literally everyone has the same opportunity to enter the kingdom of heaven on that basis. However, while super-intelligence or big degrees may not be necessary, the discovery of spiritual truth does require just one very reasonable quality of heart, which little children have always possessed. Find out just what this basic quality of heart is as you continue your search for spiritual truth within this simple to understand work which only leaves the real spiritual truth left standing. In this part 1 of our series "Answers For The Honest Skeptic", author Ted Even endeavors to show just how much overwhelming evidence points to the fact that quite contrary to the theory of evolution, we do indeed have not only a creator, but an all sovereign loving creator who is both perfect and eternal.

Find out just what this basic quality of heart is as you continue your search for spiritual truth within this simple to understand work which only leaves the real spiritual truth left standing. Not having been raised with any particular religion at all, it wasn't long before author Ted Even did discover real hope when, at age 18, he decided to give Christ a chance and become a Bible-believing Christian. If the Christian faith did not really make good sense, Ted Even is probably one of the first to say that he most certainly would have abandoned his faith long ago. But while he diligently studied the Holy Bible (as well as other sources) during the last thirty- six years, which followed his conversion, he only found that God's Word gave reasonable solid answers to even the harder questions which many skeptics have probably wrestled with ever since Christ. In his Answers for the Honest Skeptic four-part series, Ted Even reveals just what he has discovered as he responds to eighty-five different objections which skeptics often have had to biblical Christianity.

The author, a skeptic and journalist, asks basic questions about Christian belief. What is the born-again experience? Why would God want to sacrifice his only son for the world?

Each question is followed by commentary and analysis that is skeptical and tough but never argumentative or condescending. Christians will find the book useful as a basis for developing their apologetics, while skeptics will welcome Harrison's probing rational analysis of religious claims.

These days, when many atheists and agnostics believe their criticisms of Christianity are unanswerable, it’s easy to feel intimidated. Perhaps you have been told: “Christians are hypocrites, and Christianity is corrupt.” “The Bible has been changed.” “There’s no proof for God.” “It’s either science or faith, and I choose science.” “A good God would never allow the pain and suffering we see in the world.” “There’s no historical evidence for Jesus.

Skeptic in the House of God by James L. Kelley Pdf

James L. Kelley, a skeptic about religion, writes with insight and humor of his life as a member of St. Mark's, an Episcopal church that welcomes doubters without pressuring them to compromise their intellectual integrity. When Kelley first visited the church, he was well into his forties and searching for a respite from urban malaise. At the same time, he found himself filled with disquieting questions: How could he reconcile his convictions with the central purpose of the church - to worship a God he didn't believe in? Could he say the prayers and sing the hymns while remaining an honest skeptic? After fifteen years of full participation in a church that is open not only to skeptics but also to gay men and lesbians, blacks and Jews, where members are invited to critique Sunday sermons, and where hymns are rewritten to reflect feminist concerns, Kelley found that his agnosticism remained but his skepticism about church participation had disappeared. Modern urban life can be a sterile, isolating experience, yet in St. Mark's Kelley discovered a place of vibrant community, honest inquiry, and support over the hard places in life.

Pursuing Truth and Finding Jesus by J. Mihail Pdf

Find peace in life without blaming God for your pain, even if you're mad at "The Church." Here's how... Does it feel like there's more pain in your life than there should be? Do you catch yourself frequently blaming God when things go wrong? Maybe something traumatic happened in your life to make you question your religious beliefs. According to the Cooperative Congressional Election Study, 31% of Americans are religiously unaffiliated, and I think the question to ask is... why? Many religious skeptics don't believe in God because they don't want to put their faith in the writings of dead men whom they've never met -- and that may sound fair on its surface, but life isn't always so black and white! Have you ever actually asked yourself why you believe what you believe? Is it because you're more inclined to believe what's supposedly backed by science? Or do you just believe what you're told because it's easier to run with the crowd than to think for yourself? It's normal to want to trust popular science and the mainstream media. After all, the information presented is so readily available at the click of a button. However, a healthy dose of skepticism and a willingness to dive deeper into the facts is key to finding the truth. The Bible offers substantially more truth than you might think, especially if you've had a negative experience in church or with so-called "believers" in the past. Keep searching -- whether or not you find the answers you were hoping for, my hope is that you'll find the answers you need. In Pursuing Truth & Finding Jesus, you will discover: Why God doesn't always answer our prayers the way we want Him to A glimpse at why everyone who tries to disprove Christianity can never prove that anything the Bible claims is false Perspective on why pain exists and why it's necessary for your well being The mindset needed to leverage your pain to become stronger and more resilient Key aspects of what it takes to be a free-thinker in order for you to discover the truth How you can massively reduce limiting beliefs and open your mind and heart And much more. If you're hesitant because of your current perception of Christianity, you may not yet fully understand the beautiful truths that come from studying Christ's life, death and resurrection. Pursuing Truth & Finding Jesus isn't here to convert you -- it will simply guide you towards a greater understanding of who God is as Father and who Jesus is as Saviour. It's time to stop believing everything you're told and become an honest skeptic, willing to learn and grow.

Speaking all over the United States about apologetics issues, Charlie Campbell has heard just about every question skeptics have to offer. In this concise, reader-friendly handbook, he provides brief responses to the top-40 questions that keep people from the faith, such as... What evidence do you have that God exists?
