Nature of Apologetics (1 of 1)- Douglas Groothuis, Ph.D.

Douglas R. Groothuis Ph.D., professor of philosophy at Denver Seminary. THE NATURE AND PURPOSE OF APOLOGETICS - part 1 (by Douglas Groothuis): "Men despise religion. They hate it and are afraid it may be true. The cure for this is first to show that religion is not contrary to reason, but worthy of reverence and respect. Next make it attractive, make good men wish it were true, and then show that it is. Worthy of reverence because it really understands human nature. Attractive because it promises true good." —Blaise Pascal, Pensées, #12/187. I. The Definition of Apologetics A. The rational defense of the Christian worldview as objectively true and existentially or subjectively engaging. More generally, to commendation of Christianity in the face of unbelief or doubt. B. Concerns defining Christian truth-claims that one must believe in order to be a Christian 1. Essentials of orthodoxy: Trinity, Incarnation, biblical authority, justification by faith, etc. 2. Truth-claim: propositions affirming the existence or nonexistence of certain states of affairs a. Different than a sentence; many sentences affirm of declare the same proposition (More on this in D. Groothuis, Truth Decay, chapter four) b. Truth-claims are different than questions, emotive utterances, commands, etc. II. Relation of Apologetics to Theology A. Apologetics is dependent on theology for its content (essential doctrines), which are defended as true B. Theology's ideal is to systematically and coherently articulate what Scripture teaches C. We need a theology of apologetics' - Theological truths (such as human depravity, general revelation, divine transcendence and immanence) guide one's understanding and application of apologetics III. Relation of Apologetics to Philosophy A. Comes under one category of philosophy—philosophy of religion: the rational investigation of religious truth-claims - But not all philosophy of religion is Christian apologetics; may be done in service of Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, atheism, etc. B. Attempts to rationally justify theological statements through philosophical means (theistic arguments, defending the coherence of doctrines, such as the Trinity or Incarnation, etc.) - Need not be propaganda or proselytizing, but may be C. Resurgence of Christians in philosophy in the last two-three decades. See James Kelly Clark, ed., Philosophers Who Believe (InterVarsity Press, 1993); Thomas Morris, God and the Philosophers, ed. (Oxford, 1995). Academic journals: Faith and Philosophy; Philosophia Christi IV. Relation of Apologetics to Evangelism A. Apologetics used when necessary to remove obstacles to evangelism: doubts, misunderstandings (Matthew 28:18 -- 20) B. Evangelism declares Christian truth and invites unbelievers to embrace it; apologetics defends Christian truth and clarifies its meaning C. Apologetics as pre-evangelism (Francis A. Schaeffer) Playlist: Https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXnT7si8scZpOLv68se0Yvg/playlists

Order the DVD here: http://www.miningforgod.com Stream and Download the movie here: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/miningforgod America has long been called a Christian nation. In fact, over 70% of adults in America identify themselves as Christian. Yet when filmmaker Brandon McGuire heads to the streets to ask a few clarifying questions about how Christianity is defined within our culture, he is shocked by the answers he finds. This provocative documentary takes us deep within the American mind and brings to the surface the big ideas that have influenced the way we think about ourselves and about God. McGuire grew up with a middle class American view of Christianity. After college, though, he lived for three months in Africa, where he saw a very different kind of Christianity. When he came back to America, he started to pay more attention to what people think about Christianity. As he asked questions, both online and on the street, it soon became apparent that people hold all manner of beliefs: "Good people go to heaven; bad people end up in hell." "All religions are basically the same." "Christanity is just about rules." "It’s about controlling people." "No religion can be the only way to God or spirituality." McGuire realized that this was an area of much confusion in America. So he set out to address it rationally. He asked such questions as: "What is Christianity?" "What are some of the ideas that have influenced the way people think about it?" "Is there any evidence for God in the natural world?" "If so, how can we know anything about who this God is?" "Is there such a thing as objective truth, or is truth relative to cultures?" McGuire then turns an eye to the central event in the Christian narrative – the resurrection of Jesus Christ. After all, this claim – that Jesus of Nazareth rose from the dead – makes Christianity testable: "Is there evidence for the resurrection?" "And if so, how credible is it?" He interviews a variety of people – people on the street, former atheists and former believers in other religions, along with some of the most seasoned Christian scholars making the case for Christianity today such as Lee Strobel, William Lane Craig, Gary Habermas, J Warner Wallace, Nabeel Qureshi, Paul Copan, and many more. The result of all of this inquiry is Mining for God, a one hour long, expertly produced documentary that doesn’t preach at anyone. Rather, it raises good questions and respectfully offers intelligent food for thought. Whether you would consider yourself a Christian or not - there is something of value for everyone in this film.

This is a rather long reply to the rather long video 'Proving Islam Is True - I Dare Atheists To Watch This'.
