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...

Recently, I heard a description of an evangelical sermon as 'thirty minutes to raise the dead.' This, of course, refers to the Bible's description of non-Christians as being 'dead in their sins' (Ephesians 6:1), in other words, as spiritually dead as a result of having no relationship with God, the giver of all life, and the desire of the preacher for the hearer to find new life in, and through, Jesus Christ.

Result: Our legal system is fast becoming the tool of public opinion. Is there an alternative? Montgomery...
