Can you think of a time when you were called upon to give a defense of your faith in Christ? If so, briefly explain.
-
Yes, when someone close to me said that there are many ways to God, that all religions are correct. I responded that in the Bible Jesus said , “I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father except through me.” There is only one Way.

Yes. Although god doesn’t need defending, but our g=faith in Christ does.
A friend of mine left the church because of something that happened within his family. To make a long story short his parents went through a separation than to divorce.
He mentioned that his family were members of a church but left after one of his parents had an affair. and I know that this might be far-fetched and not the same as defending my faith but to me it was. My God, my faith was being questioned. His response was, why would God allow this to happen. The answer that I offered didn’t help. I felt that God didn’t allow this situation to happen but the adults involved made a choice that contradicted what God would want us to do as Christ-followers. It kind of showed me that regardless of how close we are to God, the choices that we make as humans can harm our salvation. -
I was making a purchase at a service station when the question me about a t shirt that I was wearing that contain scripture from the gospels.

We got into a conversation about God and His existence. That led onto the three questions that most everyone ask themselves, Where do we come from?, Why are we here?, and most important Where are we going. We discussed how almost every culture believes in an afterlife. God offers us the most reasonable and gracious solution, By Grace alone, through Faith alone, in Jesus Christ alone.An unspeakable Gift, Himself in the flesh offering us Eternal Life in exchange for His Sacrificial death for us.

I was asked why I believed in Jesus because the person asking had some doubts of His existence. I explained that my belief came about because of my Spiritual relationship with Christ. I also used the Bible to show that by faith we follow Christ noting the things He has done for me, both physically and Spiritually.
