Abstract

There have always been challenges to belief in God as he is revealed in the Bible and each new year seems to add more questions to the doubter's arsenal. In Evidence for God, leading apologists provide compelling arguments that address the most pressing questions of the day about God, science, Jesus, the Bible, and more, including:
• Is Intelligent Design really a credible explanation of the origins of our world?
• Did Jesus really exist?
• Is Jesus really the only way to God?
• What about those who have never heard the gospel?
• Is the Bible today what was originally written?
• What about recently publicized gospels that aren't in the Bible?
• and much more
