March 29, 2009

**********Dear Dr. Zacharias,
***Some time ago, I saw a youtube interview of you with D. James Kennedy, in which you stated that the most frequently asked question among university students was how God could be good if there was evil in the world. You gave an example of [...]]]></description>

Answering the Problem of Evil

*** The first objection thoughtful unbelievers generally raise against the Christian faith is the problem of evil. &#8220;How can there be a God?&#8221; they ask, &#8220;Just look at the state of the world!&#8221; One can certainly understand their argument, and I&#8217;m certain I would feel the same way if I [...]]]></description>

John 1:13 in its Historical-Grammatical Context
 
***In the centuries-old, swirling debate between Reformed and non-Reformed theology, a discussion of John 1:13 is never far from the center of the maelstrom. Perhaps this is because Calvinists regard John 1:13 as a key text proving that man is too depraved in his will to receive Christ. [...]]]></description>

The Freedom of the Will
Question:
***I was always taught that man is born with a sinful nature. Does this mean that man&#8217;s will was corrupted by the Fall, like everything else? If so, how can you say that I can freely choose Christ or choose anything besides sin? If I&#8217;m a sinner, wouldn&#8217;t I have [...]]]></description>

Some Remaining Questions
 
***Up to this point I have attempted to reply to certain arguments that are generally believed to prove Calvinism, and to show in contrast what is a true, biblical understanding of God, man, good, and evil. There are, however, other passages Calvinists sometimes use to argue God&#8217;s sovereignty that we have [...]]]></description>

Predestination Unto Adoption
