It should be evident from the foregoing study of God's judgement upon sin in history that Biblical principles have been in effect, not just during the time that the Bible was written, but at all times. Further evidence of this is available in any study of the providence of God in history. Some of th...

If Satan exists, then we have powerful evidence for the validity of the Scriptural claims concerning supernatural activity. The demonic activity that has taken place in all ages is a testimony to the existence of a powerful spiritual force opposed to God. There are references to Satanic activity in ...

Of course, Jesus is not the only one who attests to His divinity. All of the Scriptures attest to it. In fact, the Hebrew prophets expected the Messiah to be God. Isaiah 9:6 says: For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government will be upon his shoulder, and his name will be cal...

Heretics, Jews, pagans, and Christians all inadvertently confirm the trustworthiness of the Bible by their incidental references to many of the same things to which the Bible refers. One of the most exhaustive studies of this topic was done by Thomas S. Millington, in his book, The Testimony of the ...

The Scopes Trial of 1925 has made an almost indelible impression upon the consciousness of modern Americans as an indication of the hopelessly anti-intellectual, obscurantist, and bigoted nature of "Fundamentalism," or the literal belief in the Bible. However, the image that most of us have of the t...

H. H. Price has stated that "a Deity who intervened miraculously and suspended natural law could never be accepted by Science."1 In his reply to Professor Price, C. S. Lewis observed that you cannot discover a railway accident by studying railway timetables: To discover a regularity is by definitio...

The developments of the early twentieth century were actually the result of a long process of secularization that has been taking place in Western civilization since the seventeenth century. Of course, there have been infidels in all ages of history, but the focus here is upon the state of the cultu...

The New Testament writers recognized their own writings as Scripture. Paul, in II Corinthians 3:5,6 states that his competency comes from God. In fact, according to Paul, the very words that he used were taught by the Spirit: This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in word...

A great deal has been written about the theology of the various Christian cults, with a view to demonstrating how they veer off from true Christian orthodoxy.1 While it is important to be aware of the heterodox nature of the theology of many of these cults, the discussion is often left here, as thou...

Twentieth-century western democracy and communism were, in a sense, two sides of the same coin. In both, there was an unquestioning acceptance of the atheistic anthropocentric views of the Enlightenment, and these views were carried through to their logical conclusions. On both sides of the iron cur...

The accuracy of the present-day Hebrew version of the Old Testament is a result of the fastidious care with which the Sopherim and the Masoretes transmitted it. The Sopherim copied manuscripts of the Hebrew Scriptures from about 300 B.C. until A.D. 500. According to the Talmud, they came to be calle...

If the theory of evolution is correct, then death did not come by Adam as Paul states in his epistles; rather, death is the mechanism by which man has evolved. The theory of natural selection is dependent upon the assumption that there was death in the world before the appearance of man and that dea...
