I might sometimes imagine I was too bad to be forgiven; my own heart sometimes whispers that I am too wicked to be saved. But I know in my better moments that this is all my foolish unbelief. I have an answer to my doubts in the blood shed on Calvary.

The simplest child of God who lives in love is wiser in God's sight than all the Bertrand Russells the world has seen. If we lack love, then all our knowledge makes us just big, inflated intellectual windbags who are actually ignorant of what matters most.

I think that pride is perhaps the most dangerous and insidious enemy that the Christian apologist will face. We may do good scholarly work, but if we are filled with vain glory, we shall undermine what we say by the way we are. Pride screams at people and pushes them away. It will undercut the message that we bring.

As long as the existence of God is even possible, then we have to be open to the possibility that He has acted miraculously in the universe. Only if you have proof for atheism can you be justified in thinking miracles are impossible.

A merely generalized knowledge of Christian apologetics is fine for certain contexts, and certainly better than nothing, but it will limit the horizon of your ministry.

Jesus is truly worth knowing. He is worthy to receive our whole lives. If you do give him your whole life, you'll surely never regret it.

If the Jesus of faith is not also the Jesus of history, he's powerless and he's meaningless. Unless he's rooted in reality, unless he established his divinity by rising from the dead, he's just a feel-good symbol who's as irrelevant as Santa Claus.

— Dr Gregory A. Boyd

To have a relationship with Jesus Christ goes beyond just knowing the historical facts about him, yet it's rooted in the historical facts about him.

The theological truth is based on historical truth. That's the way the New Testament talks. Look at the sermon of Peter in the second chapter of Acts. He stands up and says, 'You guys are a witness of these things; they weren't done in secret. David's tomb is still with us, but God has raised Jesus from the dead. Therefore we proclaim him to be the Son of God.'

I don't want to base my life on a symbol, I want reality, and the Christian faith has always been rooted in reality.
