Apologetics is the use of natural scholarly means to rationally prove and justify the existence of God, the inerrancy of the Bible, and other concepts which we, as Christians, believe in our hearts.

Apologetics can be a tool of evangelism to hardened, skeptical people who do not want to take things on faith. Apologetics uses science--including the Scientific Method, as well as the Forensic Method--as well as historical proofs, formal logic, as well as the laws of mathematics and statistics.

Never is apologetics "apologizing" for the faith. It's purely an approach to prove that spiritual truths are real--using natural means of proof. The use of apologetics shows that a believer is not an uneducated, emotional moron for his or her beliefs; rather he or she is a thinking, rational person.

Inerrancy of The Bible

We believe that the Bible was written by God, and that this writing is inerrant and infallible (meaning that it is errorless and literally true). Some Christian denominations believe that the Bible is neither inerrant nor literal nor true. Instead, they consider the Bible a storybook of moral fables designed to make you a nicer, better person.

Apologetics uses formal logic and statistical law to demonstrate that God wrote the Bible and that's it totally true. First, note that 40 authors-- living at different times and places--wrote the 60+ books of the Bible without collaborating with one another. Even so, the Bible is a doctrinally consistent book--with no major doctrinal contradictions. Was this consistency an accident or does it show the hand of God?

Second, the Old Testament contains 333 references to the first coming of Christ. Every one of these prophetic comments came true. Yet if only 50 of the 333 came true, there would--in statistical law--be only one chance in 250 million to the 10th power--that this was a random or chance occurence. With all 333 prophetic comments coming to pass, there's NO chance of this being a coincidence or fluke.

The Bible also contains many references to events heralding the return of Christ. For example, there are 92 references to the creation of the nation of Israel after its people were scattered in 70 A.D.--when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem. With the recreation of Israel in 1948, all of these references came true.

Logically, then, if the Bible were a handbook of nice fables, it could not be 100% doctrinally consistent and 100% statistically predictive concerning the first coming of Christ. The only logical alternative concerning the Bible is that it is too perfect, using natural means of analysis, to be a 100% product of man. Therefore, it had to be written by a supernatural person--a person we call "God."

Historical Proof

Using archeology and studying secular history, it can be proved that Christ did exist--as did more than 40 Old Testament Kings. Some secular scholars used to claim that King David was just a myth, but findings by archeologists of art objects confirm his existence.

King Nebuchadazzar gives a secular account of the Towel of Babel exactly equal in all detail to that of the Bible. This proof process just goes on and on.

Disclosure and Reporting of Facts Not Known to Bible The Writer

Solomon describes exactly how winds circulate around the globe, yet the Science of Meterology didn't exist back then. Moses, in the Law, gave over 200 rules pertaining to the control and elimination of infectious diseases--hundreds of years before Louis Pasteur.

Job, a man from the area now known as modern Saudi Arabia, wrote about the polar ice caps, even though he ever saw an ice cube.

John the Revelator describes communications satellites, neutron bombs, attack helicopters, multiple targeted reentry (MIRV) multi-cluster heads containing nuclear weapons--even though he lived at the time of Christ.

In all of these things, if God had not told them these things, they could not have known. This is just logic and historical timing.

Bible Coding

The first five books of the Bible contain secret hidden coding beneath the text which describe modern events. Most notable of these was the assassination of Prime Minister Rabin.

The year of the killing, Rabin's full name, and his assassins name (Amir), and the term "assassin will assassinate" all appear together. Was this predictive? Who knows. But clearly God put it there. Moses could not have coded this beneath the actual text, operating without a computer or with a strictly human mind and without revelation of the future. Only with the analytical power of today's computers can this code be discovered and cracked.

Now that takes supreme intelligence--and detailed advanced knowledge-- to know and code these things into ancient texts. Clearly, God did it.
