How To Answer A Skeptic

By Sandy Van Heest

Apologetics is a branch of theology devoted to the defense of the divine origin and authority of Christianity and the Bible. It refers to a reasoned defense that would be given in a court of law. The purpose of this study is to look at what the skeptics are saying about the authority of the Bible. Peter told us to give an answer. We have an answer to give. Our faith is not blind faith, but a belief system based on all the evidences that God has set out for us.
