The reason for the hope; explain it; a logical defense 1 Peter 3:15 (NIV) But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give THE REASON FOR THE HOPE that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, (NLT) Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if you are asked about your Christian hope, always be ready to EXPLAIN IT. (AMPLIFIED) But in your hearts set Christ apart as holy [and acknowledge Him] as Lord. Always be ready to give A LOGICAL DEFENSE to anyone who asks you to account for the hope that is in you, but do it courteously and respectfully. [Isa. 8:12, 13.] (Emphasis added.) |

Context ... 1 Peter 3:13-18 (vs 15) ... The context of 1 Peter 3:15 is about slander and doing good and the reason. The answer I give is not based on facts ... for many will discount it. Plus, Hebrews 11:1 is a problem, if I need facts to have faith. Searcher |

In order to have faith, that faith must have an object, a truth-claim. When I say that I believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, I am saying that the resurrection was a historical reality. When the Muslim asserts that there is no God but Allah and that Muhammed is his prophet, he is making the claim that Allah did indeed appoint Muhammed as the "seal of the prophets." Now, which truth-claim reflects reality? Or, to put it the way the skeptic does, what makes Christians so sure that they are right? Muslims have faith, so who are you to say they are wrong? Evidence does not eliminate faith. God did not leave us to blindly guess (or FEEL) what He is really like or if He even exists. --Joe! |
