Jeremy Talks About Apologetics

So I'm sure most of us here heard of the word apologetics.

Apologetics is NOT about apologizing. Apologetics is NOT something to replace our faith in Lord Jesus Christ. Apologetics is NOT JUST about defending our faith.


So what is this apologetics..??

My definition of apologetics is "presentation of facts in order to defend faith in Christianity with the determination to try win over the hearts of non-believers by presenting facts and evidences, yet with full of respect and polite in the process of countering questions of those who question in a doubtious or challenging manner."

We should know at least a bit about apologetics, for in the Bible itself says,

"15But 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, 16keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander. " -- 1 Peter 3: 15-16

So allow me to propose a question to you.

What do you understand about apologetics..?
