Presuppositional Apologetics Books, eBooks, and Unique Resources

New Presuppositional Apologetics Books, eBooks, and Powerful Resources

-------------------




In parts of the world the growth of Christianity is spectacular, yet in the West, atheism and skepticism are fervently seeking converts. “The many proofs for the existence of God must be clearly presented to our generation," says author Mike Robinson. "The goal of those who declare that ‘God is Dead’ is to remove God from our culture, schools, and civilization—this threat must be met head-on with the truth and evidence of the Christian faith.” God's Not Dead is inspired by the film directed by Harold Cronk, and stars Shane Harper, Kevin Sorbo, Jim Gleason, David A.R. White, Marco Khan, Korie Robertson, Wilie Robertson, the Newsboys and Dean Cain. It aims to show the world that God’s not dead.
God’s Not Dead helps the reader understand answers to questions like:

• Does God exist?
• Doesn’t evolution disprove the Bible?
• What are the reasons to affirm the Resurrection of Christ?
• How can I prove that God’s not dead?
• If life has a purpose, how do I find meaning in my life?
• How can the believer answer the problem of evil?
• How is Jesus Christ unique?
• How can one claim to have certain truth?
• Why is true faith not blind, but based on truth and evidence?

Are you sometimes concerned that someone will ask you a question about your faith that you can’t answer? Have you tried to learn how to prove and contend for your faith, but have gotten lost in puzzling language and concepts? Have you struggled with periods of doubt yourself? This new, easy-to-understand book provides simple but powerful tools to help you defend the existence of God.

Yes, this God’s Not Dead: Many Proofs for the Christian Faith is geared for average believers; however, this book is not just for beginners. The author refines very difficult and complex intellectual issues and makes them accessible to all, even though it may challenge many seasoned apologists and scholars—great for students as well as skeptics.

Historical Apologetics Grounded on Ultimate Precommitments - eBook Format
No man in the past or the present has provoked such widely differing opinions as Jesus Christ. Some say He was merely a good and decent man, while others say He must be God in the flesh. In many trendy books, Christ’s story is altered to suit the whims of those seeking to make Him a supporter of numerous political or ethical causes. Today, fashionable skeptics like Bart Ehrman follow in the footsteps of the Jesus Seminar as they reject the biblical depiction of Jesus. They do not depict Him as God who came to atone for the sins of humanity. They attempt to reduce Christ to a mere man to suit their quirks and odd notions—they attempt to depict Christ as a zealot, a mystical sage, or a prophet for progressive values. 

In How Jesus God Became in the Flesh, you will discover: 

• Innovative Ways to Refute Critics of the Bible 
• How the Foundation of Hypercritical Scholarship Collapses 
• A Powerful Defense of the Trinity 
• The Historical Evidence for Christ and the New Testament 
• The Early Church Father’s Proclamation of Christ’s Divinity 
• The Proof that Jesus Christ is God 
• The Church Did Not Make Christ Divine by Vote 

Jesus Christ's influence on our world is commanding, unavoidable, constructive, and often reviled. It is commanding because He is the Lord who fulfils His word; it is unavoidable for the reason that He is God and His name is known in every nation; it is constructive in light of the wisdom, love, education, and salvation it has produced; it is reviled because He makes moral demands upon humanity. 

In How Jesus Became God in the Flesh, Mike Robinson robustly defends the divinity of Christ, His incarnation, and the doctrine of the Trinity. He rests on Scripture as he explores philosophy, ontology, history, and textual criticism. In this innovative volume, Robinson maintains Jesus Christ is God—the contrary is not possible. 

Not only is there compelling evidence that Jesus was something loftier than a mere man—that He was, in fact, God in the flesh. By wrestling with the biblical view of the Logos and the accounts of His birth, ministry, death, and resurrection, Robinson clarifies the scriptural depiction of Jesus of Nazareth: God the Son—he undercuts the critics at their foundation. This reader-friendly book examines events, sayings, teachings, and the history of Jesus, using the Greek texts, ancient Rabbinical documents, and modern philosophy in service of the truth—God came to the earth to save men. Grab a warm beverage, pull up a seat, participate in the discussion, and learn how captivating the conversation regarding the historical Jesus can be.
