  At the beginning of this program we learned: “People have many reasons for rejecting the Christian faith. Some may admire Christ but dislike His followers. Others find it difficult to accept any faith that claims to be the only way to God. Why would anyone limit themselves to only one of the world’s great religions?” How valid are each of these objections? What is your response to each?

  My response: I believe that each of these objections are valid. Because People always want to be free and to do what they desires. For me growing up in a different religious back ground I needed to understand and ensure that the Christian faith and it’s belief is serving the same God as I did, even though all followers of Christ are not always believers, I need to experience Christian Apologetic for myself and others in a great religion. I believe The Christian faith because it has been defended, supported and proven with historical facts and is in agreement with living righteous lives that represent what the Bible teaches.

  Thtough faith believing in God , the holy The Holy Spirit and himself. I believe anything is possible Jesus had to have faith also in himself or he would never have been able to attempt the miracles he performed

  Some may admire Christ but dislike His followers:

  Sadly, there are those that have experienced abuse of some kind by supposed Christians. If an individual has suffered the cruelties of a supposed Christian, then they will be marred and make many assumptions regarding other Christians. In my experience those that reject Christ due to a follower is the result of a said Christian not acting and portraying a true Christ like reflection.

  Others find it difficult to accept any faith that claims to be the only way to God:

  I believe that this is due to the arrogance of the heart. This is especially true of the atheist/agnostic, as soon as they acknowledge the supremacy of Christ, they cease to be the center of the universe. Generally, people do not like exclusive truth statements. When someone acknowledges Christ is the only way, this requires significant philosophical and action change.

  The virgin birth of Jesus Christ, the signs, wonders and miracles that He performed, His crucifixion on the cross and His resurrection from the dead and His ascension into heaven are all the fulfilments of prophecies and predictions that had been pronounced hundreds of years earlier in the Old Testament.

  If people have the capacity to believe in something based on facts, evidence and consistency, then the story of Jesus is as credible as the existence of a person called Abraham Lincoln. The consistency and cohesion of the Bible backed up by historical evidences point to its ultimate author – Jesus Christ!

  Disliking followers is totally possible in that we are not Christ but strive to be like Christ. Our failures as humans in a fallen world can cause us to be disliked by others and perhaps seen as liars. In our current culture where truth comes from an individual person’s belief system, many will claim the only way as limited and unfair. Again, with the personal truth philosophy prevalent today, having the choice of many religions to justify your actions totally fits. These objections are valid when viewed through the lenses of today’s secular culture.
