On different types of apologetics

October 20th, 2014
Jeff Laird 3 hrs One of my recent answers, to a question I've actually seen people bicker over: which apologetics method is "best"? Question: What's the best type of apologetics: presuppositional, classical, or evidential? God uses some degree of the evidential type and uses miracles. But Paul hints in Romans 1:20 that presuppositional apologetics is the most biblical type. This is very confusing. Answer: Asking which kind of apologetics is “best” is sort of like asking which type of mathematics is “best”: . . .

On providing links/references to songs in answers

October 19th, 2014
Sarah Van Baale October 19, 2014 I have never referenced a song, and I'm very hesitant to, because not all music is created equal. In fact, I take issue with certain Christian songs they play on the radio, because the theology behind the lyrics isn't always sound. However, after just submitting an answer to a young woman who was raped and feels unworthy of God's love, this song really came to mind.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GXI0B4iMLuU I tried very hard to convey this message to her through words, verses, and love, . . .

On Purity Software

Jimmy Turner October 14 at 1:20pm · Chattanooga, TN I saw the GQ Facebook post about X3. I've used Covenant Eyes before, but I had to cancel my service because it was incompatible with the school server for my PhD program (Moodle). Does anyone know if X3 has similar trouble with school programs? LikeLike · Seen by 29 Jed Kramer I can't personally vouch for K9webprotection, but I've heard it protects without 'over protecting'.

On suicide in a terminal cancer patient

October 15th, 2014
Kris Theobald October 7 at 7:12pm · Edited So I saw this video and it really has me thinking, and struggling with what the biblical answer would be. Obviously suicide is NOT a wise choice, and the taking of any life, including your own, in a moment of weakness would be sinful although forgivable, and for the Christian, covered by the blood of Christ. What do you all think of this woman's case? Obviously we know the great physician can heal anyone, but in a case like this, where things are progressing . . .
