Dear Aby #21 – Literal vs Lateral

October 9, 2019July 14, 2018 by Larry Ballard

Dear Aby, Taking the Bible literally does not mean that every statement applies equally to our present day situation. Under the Law of Moses, a person who committed adultery was to be punished by death. Therefore (as critics assert), any Christian who takes the Bible …

October 9, 2019July 10, 2018 by Larry Ballard

Dear Aby #18 – Is the Bible True?

October 9, 2019June 27, 2018 by Larry Ballard

Hi Aby, Archaeology also affirms the reliability of the Bible. As is true with any historical work, not every single detail in the Bible can be directly confirmed. However, the Bible cannot be called unreliable simply because it contains parts which have not yet been …

Dear Aby #17 – Bible is full of errors?

October 9, 2019June 25, 2018 by Larry Ballard

October 9, 2019June 23, 2018 by Larry Ballard

October 9, 2019June 21, 2018 by Larry Ballard

Dear Aby #13 – Fingerprints Everywhere

October 9, 2019June 17, 2018 by Larry Ballard

Dear Aby, DNA is just the tip of the design iceberg. Signs of intelligence—God’s fingerprints, as it were—are everywhere in the natural world, with countless examples of design chronicled in scores of works—books, DVDs, etc.—authored by believers and nonbelievers alike. There’s the remarkable positioning of …
