    About this ebook

    Many non-Christians often refuse to give the Christian faith an honest hearing because of the mistaken conviction that to become a Christian is to commit intellectual suicide. For them, Christianity is something akin to old-fashioned superstition and fantasy, whereas they live in the realm of the "real world" which "deals with reason, evidence, and cold hard facts." In the face of this, Dr. Hein demonstrates that the Good News of salvation through Christ is the only answer, not just because it works, but because it is true.

      Why Do Many People STRUGGLE With A LACK OF FAITH?

      Feb 11, 2022

      The apostle Paul exhorts Christians to “walk by faith and not by sight” – 2 Corinthians 5:7. What we see here is a contrast between truth and perception—what we know and believe to be true and what we perceive to be true. This is where the Christian

      We read a lot these days about ‘fake news’ – but I wonder if such a thing as a ‘fake gospel’ also exists, and how to define it? Does one consider anything that does not bring the believer to maturity, as mentioned in Colossians 1:28, a fake gospel? D

      Jesus said that the truth sets us free. But the opposite is also true: Lies put us in bondage—even if the lies are spoken from a pulpit by a sincere minister or a Christian celebrity. In my international travels, I’ve sat in countless meetings and he

      What The New Testament Doesn’t Say

      May 20, 2019

      When professing Christians deny Biblical creation, we often point them to the Words of Jesus and the New Testament authors, which clearly affirm their own belief in Biblical creation. Because Christians are, by definition, people who believe what Jes

      The Historical Event That Marks Our Faith

      Apr 13, 2020

      An amazing thing about the Christian faith is that it is rooted in the historical reality of a Man who lived, was crucified, and resurrected from the dead three days later. The Apostle Paul therefore insists in 1 Corinthians 15 that were the resurrec
