Advice for Future Apologists
In 1 Peter 3:15, Christians are commanded: "In your hearts revere 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." From the Greek word for "give an answer" comes the word "apologetics."

Thank you.
A friend of mine said Jesus could not have said "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Lightl, because he spoke Aramaic, and there's no difference between 'the' and 'a'. I had no rebuttal....
ReplyDeleteMr. Wood, I've seen you claimed as having a doctorate on various websites, including Richard Carrier's. I was trying to find in what you have a doctorate in and where you received it on your website and couldn't find it. Could you provide this information? Thank you kindly.

ReplyDeleteALWAYS be prepared to give an answer with gentleness and respect
Sadly many churches do fail in this.
Do christians see Mary as the mother of Jesus?
Hello David,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Tom Riley and I live in Staten Island, NY. I'm a big fan of your apologetic videos concerning Islam. I'm amazed at your proficiency with the Quran. I'm currently am working on, by God's grace, to set up a local ministry where I visit churches on the island and teach Christians about the Quran in order to help them contend for the faith. I have a descent knowledge of the Quran, yet I know it could be better. Would you be able to recommend some good resources where I can enhance my understanding? Is there any particular translation you recommend above others? Currently I'm using Usama Dakdok's the Generous Quran but am not sure that that's the best. Keep up the great work brother!
I'd go with the Hilali-Khan translation. You can get download it here (along with all of the major hadith collections): http://kalamullah.com.
DeleteThank you so much-God bless
ReplyDeleteDavid, I have watched quite a number of your videos and am only happy to say 'keep at it' while i pray for your long life to do the good work
