The Cross of Christ: 2006 Fall Conferences
Message 10, Justification by Faith Alone:
This Message is from the Conference The Cross of Christ: 2006 Fall Conferences.
About the Conference, The Cross of Christ: 2006 Fall Conferences
As the Good Shepherd, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ willingly laid down His life for the sake of His sheep (John 10:11). All of history revolves around this event, so we must strive to understand its significance.
In this collection from the 2006 fall conference series, R.C. Sproul, along with Ligon Duncan, Derek Thomas, and Albert Mohler, examines Christ’s work on the cross and remind us that it is the centerpiece of God’s redemption. Beginning with man’s need for atonement, they discuss the identity of those Jesus came to save, look at how He ransoms us from God’s curse, and answer common questions about the meaning of the crucifixion.

Did God Command Genocide in the Bible? William Lane Craig vs Richard Dawkins
http://reasonablefaith.org - Cowardly atheist thinker Richard Dawkins is desperately triving to save his dignity from the charge of cowardice due to his failure to debate William Lane Craig one-on-one. In an effort to save face, Dawkins is making the dishonest claim (and libelous charge) that Craig supports genocide (because of his defense of God's command to drive the Canaanites away from their promised land that was taken by them from the Canaanites), and so he's not worth debating.

Darrell Bock of Dallas Theological Seminary responds, saying that the case for forgery is not as conclusive as Bart claims.
They examine the evidence for whether 1 and 2 Peter were written by Peter as well as letters attributed to Paul such as Ephesians and 2 Thessolonians.

WITHOUT "SOLA SCRIPTURA" (THE BIBLE ALONE), WHO IS TELLING THE TRUTH?
Sola scriptura (Latin "by Scripture alone") is one of five important slogans of the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century. It meant that Scripture is the Church's only infallible rule for deciding issues of faith and practices that involve doctrines. The intention of the Reformation was to correct the Roman Catholic Church by appeal to the uniqueness of the Bible's authority, and to reject Romanist tradition as a source of original authority alongside the Bible or in addition to the Bible. This idea of the singular authority of Scripture is the motivation behind much of the Protestant effort to translate the Bible into the native vernacular. In comparison, Eastern Orthodoxy has been motivated by its incarnational theology to translate not only the Bible but also the prayers and liturgies of the church.

The psychology of atheism - part 1
Answers to questions concerning the existence of God are continually demanded by atheists. Why is that? Is it that not all of the atheist's questions have been answered? Actually, they have all the answers they need, and they understand them. So if there is a God, then why are there atheists? In "The Psychology of Atheism," Dr. Sproul explains that it is not a lack of information that is keeping the atheist from believing, it is something else.
The Psychology of Atheism is a lecture from the lecture series 'Defending Your faith.'

Foolishness of Preaching the Cross

The Doctrines of Grace
Grace is a word that we hear again and again in lives. Anyone who is affiliated with a church, whether orthodox apostate, or even the cults will tell you that you are saved by grace. But what exactly do people mean when they say “grace”? What it the biblical concept of grace and how does it work itself out in our lives? Which notion of grace are you operating under? The sixteenth century church rediscovered the biblical concept of grace, and perhaps nobody was able to articulate it better than John Calvin. In this message, Dr. Sinclair Ferguson explains John Calvin’s essential role in church history as a preacher and teacher of the biblical doctrine of grace.

Limited Atonement
" Let there be no misunderstanding at this point. The Arminian limits the atonement as certainly as does the Calvinist. The Calvinist limits the extent of it in that he says it does not apply to all persons (although as has already been shown, he believes that it is efficacious for the salvation of the large proportion of the human race); while the Arminian limits the power of it, for he says that in itself it does not actually save anybody. The Calvinist limits it quantitatively, but not qualitatively; the Arminian limits it qualitatively, but not quantitatively. For the Calvinist it is like a narrow bridge which goes all the way across the stream; for the Arminian it is like a great wide bridge which goes only half-way across...."

Amazing Grace - The History & Theology of Calvinism
To order, please visit: http://www.nicenecouncil.com
Just what is "Calvinism?" Does this teaching make man a deterministic robot and God the author of sin? What about free will? If the church accepts Calvinism, won't evangelism be stifled, perhaps even extinguished? How can we balance God's sovereignty and man's responsibility? What are the differences between historic Calvinism and hyper-Calvinism? Why did men like Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Whitefield, Edwards and a host of renowned Protestant evangelists deny the Arminian definition of free will and label it heresy? Why did the Roman Catholic Church condemn the Reformed teaching of predestination and election and embrace free will theology? And why do so many Protestants, perhaps unwittingly, agree with Rome on this issue?
Amazing Grace:The History and Theology of Calvinism is the first video documentary that answers these and other related questions. This fascinating three-part, four-hour presentation is detailed enough so as to not gloss over the controversy. At the same time, it is broken up into ten "Sunday-school-sized" sections to make the rich content manageable and accessible for the average viewer.

According to the well known and out spoken Athesit Richard Dawkins, "The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully."
Paul Copan who is a Christian Apologist and philosopher has just wrote a wonderful book answering the objections to the God of the OT. In this discussion. Paul Copan debates Atheist Norman Bacrac on this topic, enjoy!
How did the people of God recognize which books were inspired?
Dr. Geisler explains how the people of God recognized what books were to be in the cannon of scripture. Here are three tests;
1-Was the book written by a prophet of God
2- Was the message confirmed by acts of God
3-Does the book tell the truth about God

Do Humans Share A Common Ancestry With Neanderthals?
On this episode of ID the Future, Casey Luskin tackles another neo-Darwinian assertion made by Karl Giberson and Francis Collins in The Language of Science and Faith. In their book, Giberson and Collins capitalize on the popular notion of Neanderthals as brutish, non-human, cavemen like beasts in order to bloster their claims about common ancestry. Is this view of Neanderthals accurate? Do experts agree that Neanderthals are drastically different from early humans? What does this mean for the notion of common ancestry. Luskin explores the connection between Neanderthals and humans and sets Giberson and Collins straight.

Christopher Hitchens
Outspoken Atheist Christopher Hitchens in a interview on 60 minutes earlier this year. Battling stage 4 cancer Hitchens does not have much time left. I would ask Christians to pray for him, that he would see his need to repent and trust Christ as Lord and master.

Light signifies truth, while darkness signifies spiritual blindness. Jesus is the light of the world who gives sight to the blind. No amount of spiritual darkness can subdue the glory of God that is revealed in Him.

Scientocracy Rules
Welcome to the Scientocracy, where unless you fully accede to the consensus view, then your opinion not only doesn't matter, it might even be dangerous. On this episode of ID the Future Casey Luskin shows how a recent move to redefine scientific literacy from an understanding of science into wholesale capitulation to the "consensus" damages true scientific literacy -- including the right to debate and dissent. Luskin's article appeared in Salvo Magazine. For more information on Salvo, visit www.salvomag.com.

Can God's Existence be Demonstrated? (William Lane Craig)
Robert Lawrence Kuhn (host of PBS' "Closer to Truth") asks philosopher and theologian William Lane Craig about whether God's existence can be demonstrated or not. Questions explored: Can you demonstrate God's existence mathematically? Does an argument have to convince everybody in order for it to be valid? What are some of the best arguments for God's existence? What is the Cosmological Argument? What is Leibniz's argument for God's existence? Does the contingency argument depend on a universe having a beginning? What is the Teleological Argument? What is meant by Fine-Tuning and Intelligent Design?
And Much more!!!

The Universe : The Edge of Space
The majority of space has occurred in Low Earth Orbit, around 120 miles above sea level. For a cool $20 million, any person can take a ride on the International Space Station, around the 1,100 mile band around Earth. Commercial prospects for LEO are huge, there are big dangers lurking for anyone interested in traveling this way, such as radiation, , cosmic rays, and space debris numbering in the thousands threaten any spacecraft traveling in orbit. It's a new frontier and maybe the final frontier, and the possibilities are endless if you are willing to travel to the edge of space exploration.
