Each of us has this ...

Many people believe that the data obtained from the radiometric dating of rocks indicates (1) that the earth is approximately 4.5 billion years old, (2) that the ages of the earth's geologic strata have been positively determined, indicating that fossils within these strata are in the sequence one w...

According to Islamic teaching, Muhammed was the last of many prophets, including Abraham, Moses, Samuel, Isaiah, and Jesus. Muhammed was born in A.D. 571 at Mecca in Arabia. His father died a few days after he was born, and his mother died when he was six years old. His grandfather then cared for hi...

David Nelson, a physician of the nineteenth century, ultimately became a Christian partly because of the experiences he had at the bedside of many of his patients just before the time of their death.

For many of them, religious matters, or matters of "faith and practice," are considered infallible, while other matters are subject to error. However, this approach is inconsistent with that taken by the Scriptures ...

The Christian Origin of Science becomes quite clear when we study the history of science, and we see that until very recently, scientists interpreted the data in light of the Bible.
