If we reject Jesus, we will face him as judge. Look more closely, McLaughlin argues, and the reality of suffering, the complexity of sexuality, the desire for diversity, the success of science, and other seeming roadblocks to faith become signposts. If we put our trust in Jesus, we are in Christ His death is our death and His life becomes our life. Channeling state-of-the-art research, personal stories, and careful biblical study, Confronting Christianity explores 12 questions that keep many of us from considering faith in Christ. But at the cross, the judge Himself took on the judgment. Drawing on state-of-the-art academic research, personal stories, and deep scriptural excavation, this book argues that-when looked at more closely-what first seemed like roadblocks to faith actually become signposts. We have all rebelled against our Creator and fallen under His judgment. This book explores 12 hard questions that seem to undermine the Christian faith: the existence of suffering, the Bible’s teaching on gender and sexuality, the reality of judgment, the authority of Scripture, the success of science, and more. Confronting Christianity is the book you’ve been waiting to give to your skeptical friends Drawing on her experience working with secular university professors and students, McLaughlin. Rather than dismissing Christianity, therefore, we must wrestle with its claims.
It has long been the world's most popular belief system, and looks set to remain so. Contrary to popular belief, Christianity is not declining in the modern world.
