Churches have always taught us about God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. They have taught us the basics of Christianity and what salvation and other info about the Bible. But have you ever gone far beyond the regular teachings? Have you studied? Have you moved on from simply listening to looking at further information about our God, about His story?
The ultimate question lies: Can you defend the hope that is in you? Can you defend God? Can you defend your belief?
Let's do a trial.
You are a Christian. You believe in God and believe that Jesus died on the cross for us, carried our sins and rose on the third day, we are saved. Then you encounter someone who wants to know Christ, but just can't believe because of his or her skeptic and curious mind and personality. Or even an atheist who wants to disprove you.
Then he asks:
What is the proof that there is a God?
Is Jesus real? Any literary and archaeological evidences?
If there is a God why is there evil?
Could you answer those questions?
Are you equipped with the armor of God? If yes, then are you equipped with the right knowledge?
Can---you---defend---your---faith and hope? (as mentioned in 1 Peter 3:15)
I see many Christians have their faith destroyed so easily by those questions. And out of my care for you and everyone, I wish you will be strong in faith and never lose your stand through being equipped with the true knowledge of our powerful God.
Any questions, feel free to ask.
God bless you.
