    So I don’t lose anyone at the gate, Christian apologetics is a field of study and practice that offers a logical defense of the faith. There are many, excellent, websites that explain apologetics and its history further. If you have the time, I suggest you click on the links and check them out. The word…

    One God with One Name, Not Many Gods

    ByMatthew Semrau July 22, 2014August 3, 2015 Reading Time: 4 minutes

    Who is God? “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” – Matthew 16:15-16 (NIV) Who do you say Jesus is? What about God? Who is He? God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is…

    Freedom to Exercise Religion

    ByMatthew Semrau July 4, 2014May 5, 2016 Reading Time: 3 minutes

    The response to the recent decision in the U.S. Supreme Court regarding Hobby Lobby has been…sad. The most popular argument is “They can believe whatever they want, as long as it doesn’t affect anyone else.” Talk about ignorance. The Constitution The First Amendment of the United States Constitution is simple and to the point (emphasis…

    God’s Expectations

    ByMatthew Semrau May 22, 2014May 5, 2016 Reading Time: 5 minutes

    God does not call the qualified It is not true that God will only give us what we can handle, and it is not true He will only ask of us what we can. God does not call the qualified, He qualifies the called. From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded;…

    Evil Cannot Dwell With You

    ByMatthew Semrau May 18, 2014May 4, 2016 Reading Time: 3 minutes

    “For You are not a God who delights in wickedness; evil cannot dwell with You.” – Psalm 5:4 (HCSB) People often ask how a Good God can send people to Hell. Heaven: More Than a Reward Heaven and Hell are more than mere places. Heaven is eternal communion with God. Hell is eternal separation from…

    Falling

    ByMatthew Semrau March 25, 2014July 9, 2025 Reading Time: 1 minute

    Have you ever had a rug ripped out from underneath you? Literally or figuratively, they both have a similar feeling (I know this from personal experience.) One minute you’re happily walking along, and the next minute you find yourself overcome with this dropping feeling in your gut. Your endocrine system immediately floods your body with…

    Non-religious Argument Against Homosexual “Marriage”

    ByMatthew Semrau February 19, 2014May 5, 2016 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Equal Rights Let’s dismantle this argument about “equal rights.” First, you must establish that the institution of marriage IS a right. Then you must DEFINE that institution. For most Americans, the institution of marriage is the union between two members of opposite genders with the potential (but not the guarantee) of reproduction. A male and…

    A One-Sided Conversation

    ByMatthew Semrau December 2, 2013May 5, 2016 Reading Time: 2 minutes

    Me: It shouldn’t read “Right-Wing” it should say “Some Christians Claim”… Most of the Christians I know are Conservative, Right-Wing Christians (myself included) who would scoff and rebuke anyone making that claim. Me: They are all over the place. The article itself even quotes a few. A handful of people making idiotic claims is not…
