Always Be Prepared

In the Bible in 1 Peter 3:15 it says: "But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect," [source]

This blog is about presenting a well reasoned defense of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I think their is a lot of misunderstanding about who Christ is and what Christianity is, this aims to give instruction and defense of the faith.  To help the believer and the seeker both.

The title of the blog comes from the roots of the Greek and Latin words for apologist and edification.  Apologetics comes from the "Greek roots apo = from; logos = word, logic, reasoning." [source]  Edification comes from the "Latin aedificare to instruct or improve spiritually, from Latin, to erect a house." [source]

This blog is a reasoned defense and instruction in the Christian faith.  How will this happen?  I plan on transcribing, word for word, sermon videos and podcasts and doing some book reports on key books and providing links to key resources.

Be holy because I, the Lord your God, am holy.
