As the Scriptures foretold...




When I was in college, one of my favorite subjects was apologetics.  I still love apologetics.  I love that our faith in Christ is a reasonable faith that can be defended reasonably.  Some have said that the Apostle Paul was the first to use apologetics in defense of his faith in Christ.

In apologetics, there are many reasonable defenses for the resurrection of Christ.  For example, if the body of Christ had simply been stolen by his disciples in an attempt to "fake the resurrection"  what happened to all of the precautions such as the sealed tomb and the soldiers guarding the tomb.  Also, what about the grave clothes that were found neatly left behind in the tomb?  What about the over 500 eye witnesses of Jesus who both saw and heard, (and some even ate with!), Jesus after His resurrection. However, it's the evidence in the Bible itself that I want to focus on today. (For this entire post, join me at Woman to Woman Ministries on Easter Sunday where I will be sharing some Sunday Soul Food!)

    Apologetics was my favourite as well in Bible Collage, and I enjoy greatly listening to the Podcasts by Ravi Zacharias / Let My People Think. Blessings to your Easter, Elizabeth!
