Summary: The historical fact of the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ from being dead is critical to his authenticity and credibility. If he actually did return to physical life, this is a solid vindication for faith in him. If he did not, faith is useless – as the disciple Paul explained. What is the evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ? Lines of evidence include prophecies fulfilled, accounts by historians of that time, and testimony of the disciples – for which most lost their lives. The latter evidence is most compelling, for people may be willing to die for a conviction they believe to be true. But people will NOT die for a conviction they know to be false.

Summary: Here the word “normal” means “expectation” rather than “commonly observed.” Scripture illuminates the expectations for every person who claims to be following Christ. We are urged to examine ourselves to assess whether we are adhering to our faith. A useful model for assessing the normal life is Content of our faith, Character of our faith, and Community of our faith. Content of our faith refers to our beliefs, including monotheism, the deity of Christ, the death and resurrection of Christ, and salvation by grace. Character of our faith includes faithfulness in prayer, the fruit of the Spirit in our lives, and aiding people in need. Community of our faith touches on the quality of how we interact with others were following Christ. View the live video presentation of What Is a “Normal” Christian Life?

Summary: In the Sermon on the Mount, Christ declares, “Happy/blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” In this context, purity refers to our intentions, the state of our desires. We genuinely want to please God and sincerely desire the welfare of others – regardless of any personal recognition or payback. In this phrase, to “see God” refers to acting upon the value, the image of God, we identify other people – as well as holding to the promise that one day we ourselves will enjoy meeting God face-to-face.

It challenges conventional teaching with provocative, evidence-based answers. Based on the book Darwin’s Demise, co-authored by Nicholas Comninellis & Joe White of Kanakuk Kamps.

Summary: The historical reliability of the events recorded in the Bible is critical to the credibility of faith in Jesus. Were the New Testament writers accurately describing the events they witnessed? Is our Bible today an accurate copy of those original New Testament letters? What process was used to identify which letters to include in the New Testament? What is the message of the Bible that’s causes so much controversy & inspired so many lives?
