Providential Apologetics Analysis
Welcome to class Brennan I really enjoyed reading your post this week and I tend to also see myself leaning toward the evidential Apologetics as well. Evidential Apologetics emphasizes in the truth of Christianity. I believe in letting the facts speak for themselves and this type of Apologetics emphasizes around the miracles and the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I think that the bodily resurrection becomes the primary validation of Jesus Christ as well as when Jesus showed Himself alive after the resurrection. Also, the Bible is full of valid places, locations, dates and times that prove Jesus was Alive and walked on earth among men.

    PHIL240 Essay Set 2 101113

    When you are attempting to explain the resurrection of Jesus to an unbeliever it is important to stay on topic, and not be sidelined into a discussion on the inerrancy of the Bible. As Christians, we believe in our heart that while this is true, it may be difficult to expect a nonbeliever to hold to these beliefs. In order to stay on topic, we must take the “minimal facts approach”. In this approach, we are discussing information that is so “strongly attested historically that they are granted by nearly every scholar who studies the subject, even the rather skeptical ones” (Habermas & Licona, 2004, p. 44). The data selected for discussion meets two criteria: “They are well evidenced and nearly every scholar accepts them” (Habermas & Licona, 2004, p. 44).…

    Minimal Facts Approach to the Resurrection

    The “minimal facts approach” to the resurrection question is an approach that focuses on the lowest common denominator of agreed upon facts. For the most part, all facts presented within this approach meet two criteria: “they are well evidenced and nearly every scholar accepts them” (Habermas & Licona, 2004, p. 44). This approach only considers strongly attested historical data. So strongly in fact, that they are almost universally granted by nearly every scholar, both the skeptical and believing. The basic premise of this approach follows the presentation of five facts. Acceptance is almost universal for the first four facts whereas the fifth fact, although it has a preponderance of evidence in its favor, does not enjoy the same consensus.…

    Context for Christian Moral Reflection

    Reflecting on our morals, as Christians, can sometimes be a difficult task. As Christians, we all hold many morals and beliefs on specific issues and happenings that occur in our world. We are surrounded with different ethical concerns. How we approach these issues depends on our morals and ethics. As Christians, we gather information on our morals through passages and teachings that occur in the Bible. The Bible is full of important stories that can be interpreted and applied to our every day lives and common issues in the world. McCarthy states that, “The primary role of Scripture in moral discernment is to open our lives to seeing and experiencing […]” (McCarthy, 44). The Scripture can give great insight to how to live a moral life and also reflection on our moral beliefs.…

    Expository Essay - Faith

    Every living being possesses at least one type of faith in many diverse ways. It is defined by The American Heritage Student Dictionary that faith is "A loyalty, confidence, or trust in a person, thing, religion, or set of teachings, principals, or beliefs." The beginning of faith came when answers to questions were needed, and faith was placed in different ideas. It is therefore concluded that faith came before all else because only when faith exists can there be love, joy, bliss, sadness, anger, hate, peace, respect, friendship, freedom, or honor: for these exist only in the trust, confidence, and loyalty that is faith. Faith is conviction, confidence, and commitment in a person, idea, custom, or duty.…
