Dr. David Wood joins Frank during this episode of the Cross Examined Official Podcast. They tackled the question: Is the Quran the Word of God? David talks about how he became an expert on Islam and how that’s related to his friendship to the late Nabeel Qureshi.

Islam is the fastest growing (enforced) religion in the world and we as Christians should know how to speak intelligently with Muslims about the truth of Christianity.

Frank responds to an email from a person who actually believes the earth is flat and the sun goes around the earth based on his “interpretation” of the scriptures. During this episode, Frank lovingly refutes this position and shares some great tools to interpret the Bible properly. He points out that you need to know a lot of information from general revelation before you can understand the Bible (or any other book). Listen to this insightful episode you’ll be better equipped to understand Scripture after this show. God bless!

Should God have done things differently? Many people say things like “I can’t believe in God because if he really existed things would be a lot different” or “the bible is too complicated and contradictory, and God hides from us, so he probably doesn’t even exist.” Or the classic “God’s design is too imperfect, so I don’t believe He exists.” Frank tackles all these issues based on an email he got from one of his listeners about a former pastor who left Christianity. We know you deal with these type of issues/questions, make sure to listen to this episode to learn on how to answer these challenges to your faith.

Why Would God Make Me a Lesbian?

,

Could there be any more sensitive and provocative question in our culture today?  (Since we posted this video on YouTube two days ago it has averaged nearly 2,000 views per hour.)  A student posed the question at Towson State University.  Here is our four-minute discussion:

The video ends abruptly because the young lady went on to ask another question (you can see the entire presentation and all of the Q&A here).

The bottom line is that we all have an orientation to sinful behavior.  We all have attractions we ought not act on, and we all have to restrain ourselves on numerous fronts each day.  The only one who did that perfectly and completely was Jesus of Nazareth.  That’s why only he can be our sacrifice.  He didn’t die for his own sins, but for ours.

Of course, much more could be said on the issues of love, sex, natural law, homosexuality and same-sex marriage than one can say in a four-minute video.  I may touch on this a bit in the podcast later this week.  But if you want to go into even more depth, I have done so in this recently updated little book.

Frank raises some significant objections to the resurrection of Christ, but his guest is none other than the foremost expert in the topic, Dr. Gary Habermas. Listen to Gary’s answer to the following questions:

• Anything is more possible than a resurrection
• Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence
• Hallucinations!
• Don’t all religions have miracles claims? Aren’t they self-cancelling?
• Why do we have to rely on historical data? Why doesn’t the resurrected Jesus just appear to everyone now?

The Trinity in the Old Testament

Podcast: Play in new window

It is often assumed that the doctrine of the Trinity – the idea that there is one being of God that is comprised of three eternal and co-equal divine persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit) – is something that is revealed only in the New Testament. While it is certainly true that the expression of the Trinity reaches its climax in the New Testament, few people (Christians and non-believers alike) are aware that one can find evidence of divine plurality – and even of there being three divine persons – throughout the Old Testament as well. Listen to this fascinating episode with our guest Jonathan McLatchie and pay attention to how he reveals the Trinity in the Old Testament.
