![]() ![]() ![]() Lane Craig points out the fallacy in the argument “nobody comes to Christ through apologetics” by quoting Gresham Machen “false ideas are the greatest obstacle to the reception of the gospel”. ![]() These are increasingly important in a world at least in the West where many people are sceptical about organised religion of any type. While there is a small section on the bible most of the book covers what you might call “arguments from first principle” for the Christian faith. Apologetics can cover both biblically based issues such as "Did Jesus rise from the dead?" or "Did miracles really happen?" and non biblically based questions such as "Can you prove that God exists?" Of all the books I have read I think this is the best and most comprehensive overview of what you might call “non biblical apologetics”. I make this review deliberately long because I think the arguments and logic in it are so effective they deserve to be better known.Īpologetics is not about apologising but rather establishing a rational basis for the Christian faith. ![]()
