Logically Christian

Purpose : To logically express my own philosophy and to explain and answer the questions, of christians, atheist and myself, about God and christianity.

I am not a philosophy or church authority and have had no formal training in this area. I am just a thinking person who wants to explore the logic and philosophy behind what I have chosen to believe. I do not believe that I can use logical debate to convince someone to give their life to Jesus. Only the changing of a heart through grace can do that. However, I do think that what I believe must be logical and understandable. I am certain this will be quite a journey for me, and I hope and pray I am taking this journey with the Holy Spirit as my guide.

Remember, that my answers to these challenges are designed to show that the philosophy I believe and outline above can reasonably answer the questions. I am not hoping to explain or prove that the tenets of my Christian philosophy are obviously true. In other words, I hope to show that Christianity and the Christian God cannot be rejected because it is unreasonable, illogical or unloving. I am not attempting to scientifically prove it to be true. That is another logical discussion completely. For example: I do not intend in these exercises to explain why I believe there is a God. I intend to explain why the God I believe in could act, or not act, as I he does in our world. I hope you can see the difference. Perhaps I will attempt to discuss the scientific merits of Christianity in another series.
