Life Is A Mess. And Theology Must

I Know The Resurrection Is A Fact, And Watergate Proved It To Me. How? Because 12 Men Testified They Had Seen Jesus Raised From The Dead, Then They Proclaimed That Truth For 40 Years, Never Once Denying It. Every One Was Beaten, Tortured, Stoned And Put In Prison. They Would Not Have Endured That If It Weren't True. Watergate Embroiled 12 Of The Most Powerful Men In The World-and They Couldn't Keep A Lie For Three Weeks. You're Telling Me 12 Apostles Could Keep A Lie For 40 Years? Absolutely Impossible.

When God Wanted To Defeat Sin, His Ultimate Weapon Was The Sacrifice Of His Own Son. On Christmas Day Two Thousand Years Ago, The Birth Of A Tiny Baby In An Obscure Village In The Middle East Was God's Supreme Triumph Of Good Over Evil.

The Bible's Historical Accuracy Is A Reminder That While "the Heavens Declare The Glory Of God," There's Also Plenty Of Evidence Among The Rubble And Ruins.

We Should Always Pray With As Much Earnestness As Those Who Expect Everything From God; We Should Always Act With As Much Energy As Those Who Expect Everything From Themselves.

Nearly Every Grave Moral Failure Begins With A Small Sin.
