Apologetics and Evidence

            Who is Jesus? Is He a man that just appeared through normal birth like everyone else   on the earth over two thousand years ago? Or is there something more to Him than that?             If we take a look at what He claimed, we can get an Idea of who He thinks He is exactly, which will give us a good idea where to start with this question of just who is Jesus.              “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (NIV John 14:6). Jesus clearly wasn’t bashful when speaking about where He fits into the lives of the people of the world.

Introduction             Since the Beginning of Christian Theology, there has been great confusion, on what seems to be ambiguous, of the doctrine of soteriology. People throughout the centuries have argued, literally to death, on what the Bible speaks of concerning salvation and the nature of grace. It seems hard to argue the meaning of a lot of verses in Scripture, especially in the book of Romans, which seems to explicitly speak of the monergistic side of the nature of grace. Therefore, since we know that the book of Romans seems highly educated on the subject of grace, let’s not waste any more time and delve into the crevices of theology that are found there.                 It seems that most of the theological dialogue that has been going on through the centuries has taken most of its support from the book of Romans. In arguing against Pelagius, A...
