Charlie Campbell - Concise Answers to Atheists' Objections and Questions
from Calvary Chapel Red Wing Audio Podcast · host Charlie Campbell
In this presentation, Charlie opens up with a brief look at Jude 1:3 (“contend earnestly for the faith”) and then offers concise 2–5 minute answers to a variety of objections that atheists bring up about God and the Bible: • “The Bible condones slavery!”• “The God of the Old Testament commanded genocide, the wiping out of the Canaanite people in the Book of Joshua.”• “Surely God doesn’t exist. If He did, He’d appear to us in a public setting and prove it to the world.”• “The universe is so vast! It’s foolish to think a god built a universe billions of light years across just to have a personal relationship with you.”• “The Bible was written by men! It’s not trustworthy.”• “After the Roman Emperor Constantine became a Christian in AD 312, the Roman Empire took control of the Bible and tampered with its contents to better control the people.”• “The New Testament authors stole the whole idea for Jesus’s virgin birth and resurrection from ancient religions that were around prior to Christianity.”• “Keep the Bible out of people’s bedrooms. What two consenting adults do is their business. They have the right to do whatever they’d like to do.”• “Why do Christians persist in judging, when Jesus said not to judge?”• “The Bible is oppressive and harmful to women!”• “Religions, Christianity included, are responsible for most of the world’s wars, suffering, and atrocities!”• “Evolution is a proven fact.”
