Are the Gospels are reliable? Dr. Craig outlines 5 reasons why the Gospels ought to be assumed reliable until proven otherwise, and then he addresses the historicity of the most important aspects of Jesus' life! #Apologetics

@michaelgungor Another way to say it - systems of thought, including Christianity & non-dualism, require belief of some sort as we follow evidence to determine whether it’s true or not. We then add up the evidence, & believe (or not) & accept (or not). Even Jesus suggested this from His signs.
@michaelgungor Thx for the reply, it’s a great question & it probably would be your statement. My point was that we do have to believe something in order to accept it - whether false or true. Loving Jesus even requires belief that he was a historical person, not just who claimed to be God.
@JoeGGarrison Sure, (and just because I like a good discussion, not being a contrarian!) but a mission statement that’s said often and put up front gets done. We could love something other than God first even in the church - our position, the influence, a non-existent gods ourselves, etc.
@JoeGGarrison It’s a good point and well taken. But a website isn’t a conversation, it could be a conversation STARTER. My two cents - people are looking for quick info on a website. You got me thinking though!
@nidhiindiatv @DrTedros This is a huge issue for sure. As a Pastor I’ll be talking about #mentalhealth and #suicide this Sunday. We lose a stadium full of people to just suicide per year! It’s the #2 cause of deaths in ages 10-34. This needs to stop, its trending in the wrong direction.
It’s our CIVIC duty to engage socially, politically and ethically now; and it’s our
CITIZENSHIP in Heaven that should drive our concern for people’s eternity later. #politics#USA#kingdom#Jesus#citizen#leadership
To say 'Black Lives Matter' is not to lower other lives below theirs in terms of value, but to elevate their lives to the value that others already possess. #worthingthinkingabout#leadership#unity#jesus
@GovSisolak As a Pastor and leader I’m definitely disappointed and disagree with your decision, however our church is praying for you and your team. Leadership is incredibly difficult and you have a tough job leading through all of us. We look forward to your next announcement.
@GovSisolak As a Pastor, I'd love if we can get more towards a 50% capacity rate up to 150+ for churches. 50 people for many churches is not doable - as our church is about 1,000 people. Hope you hear us!
The topic of race is divisive, but the value of human life is decidedly less so. Race neither adds nor lessens human value. So until we see race as a category of blessed difference rather than a metric for superiority, we will continue to lose ourselves and people. #georgefloyd
@JudWilhite Hey Jud, as a fellow Pastor (in Nevada) just wanted to say I appreciate what you do and your leadership. This is new leadership territory for all of us, and we probably aren't encouraged enough, so I wanted to send you some. Ephesians 6 is definitely so poignant right now.
This is a divisive subject, but often for the wrong reasons.
The ‘Who’ that should be focused on is Jesus himself, rather than the gender of the teacher. Are we really going to say… https://t.co/KjEhM61TtA
