Christian Apologetics is the science and theological skill of giving a reasonable defense of the Christian faith. Christians are obligated to be apologists according to the exhortation given in 1Peter 3:15. Apologetics is not an option for the believer, but his duty and obligation. The purpose for Christian apologetics, first and foremost, is to present compelling factual truth and evidence for the validity of the Christian faith in the face of objections given by an unbelieving world. Arguments from evidence found in science, archaeology, history, and philosophy are marshaled to demonstrate that Christianity is the only viable world view and belief system out there that best answers life’s ultimate questions and is better than any alternative worldview or religion.

Apologetics aims to show that the objections of unbelief, however sophisticated, are, at heart, unreasonable and that contrary claims of biblical contradictions and alternative interpretations of science and history are flawed in the face of the overwhelming evidence arguing for the authenticity of the Christian faith. The importance of apologetics is designed to give refutation of opposing beliefs so as to undermine and dismantle the foundations and claims of anti-Christian belief systems. Hopefully from successfully implementing the apologetic discipline the believer will be able to give a reasoned defense for the hope that is within him of those who ask him with gentleness and respect. The ultimate goal of apologetics is not to win and argument, but win the unbeliever to Christ. Our seminary will teach the various systems of apologetics for clearly explaining the truth of Scripture, the existence of God and His appearance on earth in Jesus the Messiah.
