How long is eternal life? It’s eternal. You can’t stop eternal life if somebody’s got it. It’s my conviction somebody that is genuinely regenerate stays regenerate. There are people that look like they’re saved and aren’t.

Are we putting God in a box if we don’t expect Him to speak personally? @STRtweets Greg Koukl joins me to examine what Scripture says about hearing from God and making decisions.

God made a great place, and we messed it up. The good things that we have are a result of what God did and provided (James 1). But because we have moral freedom, we can choose to do bad, and we’re responsible for it.

Christianity refers to the basic beliefs that the early Christians held to be true as followers of Jesus. 1. God made human beings in his image. 2. Human beings did wrong and became broken. 3. God became a man in Jesus. 4. Jesus accomplished salvation through his death on the cross. 5. Everyone will face a final resurrection and judgment.

We need to know the truth and be able to put it in a way that others understand it. The power is not in quoting verses. The power is in the concepts communicated there.

We can take an interest in our culture by becoming involved citizens who seek not a Christian nation, but rather a just government. As believers, we can also be fully committed in word and deed to seeking the salvation of our fellow citizens, as commanded in Scripture. Only God can save America. Christians can be used by God, though, to treat the symptoms through positive interaction with culture. They can also play a redemptive role in the lives of others to cure the disease by being faithful to speak the truth of the gospel.

Followers of Jesus face two extremes when it comes to Christianity and politics. Do we aggressively invade culture with political solutions or trust the Spirit to change hearts? Read my latest mentoring letter at shr.link/9whah.

There are certain things that you and I, as followers of Jesus, are extremely dogmatic about. But our dogmatism is justified. We are holding firm to things that we have very good reasons to believe are so, and they matter. Okay? You want to call that stubborn? That’s a pejorative way of putting it, but okay. But being dogmatic and stubborn in a general understanding of the meaning of those terms is only a vice if neither is well justified. I think that married people ought to be real stubborn about not getting a divorce, no matter what happens, because they made a promise not just before man but before God. And so, being stubborn on the right issues is a virtue, not a vice.

The biblical view of faith is not one that's contrary to the evidence, but one that takes the evidence into consideration. If naturalism is true and you have Christianity or Christian theism in operation, well, there's going to be a conflict, but the conflict is not with the methods of science. The conflict is with the philosophy that is imposed on the methods of science. It turns out that what is at odds is not the methodology that makes science so good, but it is the philosophy that's laid over it. The conflict is not with science, but with philosophy.

The more we know, the less we fear. Also, the more personal we get with an opponent, the less ominous he appears. Those are the psychological payoffs of good preparation.

You never know what surprises you’ll face once the bullets start flying. This is no excuse, though, for neglecting to set a clear course at the outset or failing to be ready for what you think you might encounter along the way.

Here's some advice for your next worldview debate: 1. Start strong. First impressions count. 2. Exemplify the virtues of a good Christian ambassador. 3. Prepare the key points you want to make well that are central to your case. 4. Write out your overall goal for the debate.
