Cross Examined

Cross Examined

Welcome to the CrossExamined.org KZread channel. We exist to cross-examine ideas against the truth of Christianity. Here you’ll find content from the Cross Examined team lead by our founder & president Dr. Frank Turek, the co-author of the best-selling Christian apologetics book, ‘I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be An Atheist’ (& several more).

Our content includes Q&A clips from live college campus presentations around the country, debates with well-known atheists, interviews, podcast highlights, animation shorts, & our weekly Livestream show, ‘Hope One’.

Topics we cover include addressing common misconceptions & objections made against the Bible, God, & Christianity. Demonstrating how historical, archaeological, scientific, & philosophical evidence all support what only the Christian worldview claims. We also discuss political & cultural movements that are incompatible with a Biblical worldview & how Christians can best navigate the cultural climate we find ourselves in today.

    Better to admit there are errors in the bible than hold the indefensible belief that it's inerrant.

    Interesting. What do you mean by errors? I agree that we have exactly what God intends for us to have. Perhaps whatever "errors" present are there purposefully to add to the hiddenness of God and keep us guessing, so to speak, on certain knowledge that may be too much for our finite minds. The clarity of the gospel shines through no matter what.

    That's so wrong it's almost unbelievable (but then he is a Christian apologist). Degrasse Tyson likened our exploration of our own galaxy alone as being like exploring the oceans by scooping a glass of water and taking that as a representative sample. It is more than likely that there is life on other planets because it's inevitable, people just cannot grasp the scale of the universe.

    When the Gospel is meant to be translated to the entire world in every language, to not expect errors is intellectually dishonest. Not only that but what exactly is errant? Small words perhaps but not doctrine which is the crux of the Bible and knowledge you need to get saved. FAIL!

    This argument is a Pandora’s box that will cause nothing but problems for which you’ll have no defense for. If you want to say the Bible has errors then you’ve opened the flood gate and sent an invitation for every accusation against the most essential events of the Bible like creation, the immaculate conception, and the resurrection. You’ve essentially allowed every accuser an excuse because you believe the Bible has errors in it. Bad move. Prove the errors then if you're so sure.

    Q: what's the use of a healthcare system that is the best in the world when you can't access it because it costs too much? Self interest is a synonym for greed. Capitalism in todays secular world is motivated by greed it what it devolves to. We should be looking at the biblical way. Which is a mix. IE if a man doesn't work he doesn't eat. That we are to look after the less needy. That self interest or greed should be avoided. The issue isn't the economic system but rather the hearts of men. If our hearts are not after God the no matter what the system it will fail.

    King David, described as a man after God's heart, prayed for the joy of his salvation to return. Not the salvation itself but the joy. This is the same man that had one of his soldiers intentionally killed in battle so he could take his wife. There were consequences to this even past himself. But his salvation was not taken away. Consider if this man was still considered saved despite his great error, what does that say about us? We should never get self righteous as Jesus is merciful. The Harlots and tax collectors will enter heaven before the Pharisees. Not because of their works but who they trust in. Rahab the harlot was considered justified because of her faith and not he works. That being said, now that we are saved we should do good works but failing to do so doesn't take away our salvation. Because if it did then our salvation was always dependent upon us and not Gos. Not Jesus. We should never pray in thankfulness that we are not like the other sinners. We should pray for mercy.

    God never sacrifice himself, God loved the world that he sent the sacrificial lamb for our sins, so that we can have the hope of everlasting life if we believe and obey. Satan influenced others to build false gods, and do the sacrificial thing in order to mislead and confuse people and white wash the true sacrifice of our Lord.
