Again your goal is to prove that Christianity is true, not God, not Jesus… to try and prove your religion is right and all other beliefs are wrong- because your book has convinced you so
Problem is that most people read these alternatives instead of THE HOLY BIBLE. If you read to supplement is one thing but don’t replace the Bible with alternative reading! The word of God is enough to stand on its own!
1 Samuel 15:3. This verse records the words of God through the prophet Samuel to Saul, “Now go and attack the Amalekites and completely destroy everything they have. Do not spare them. Kill men and women, infants and nursing babies, Matthew 5:43–44 "But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you"
People are not good I need no convincing of this fact. God is good that's gonna take some convincing. Exodus 20:13 states, "You shall not murder" proceeds instruct his chosen people to murder babies.
Isaiah 45:7 in the King James Version of the Bible says, "I am the LORD, and there is none else. I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things".
Roman's chapter 9 starting in vs 10. Not only that, but Rebekah’s children were conceived at the same time by our father Isaac. 11 Yet, before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad—in order that God’s purpose in election might stand: 12 not by works but by him who calls—she was told, “The older will serve the younger.”[d] 13 Just as it is written: “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”
14 What then shall we say? Is God unjust? Not at all! 15 For he says to Moses,
“I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”[f]
16 It does not, therefore, depend on human desire or effort, but on God’s mercy. 17 For Scripture says to Pharaoh: “I raised you up for this very purpose, that I might display my power in you and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”[g] 18 Therefore God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens whom he wants to harden.
19 One of you will say to me: “Then why does God still blame us? For who is able to resist his will?” 20 But who are you, a human being, to talk back to God? “Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, ‘Why did you make me like this?’”[h] 21 Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for common use?
22 What if God, although choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of his wrath—prepared for destruction? 23 What if he did this to make the riches of his glory known to the objects of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory— 24
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
Timothy 3:16-17 says, "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works".
Psalm 137:9 Blessed shall he be who takes your little ones and dashes them against the rock!
If you believe the Bible you as you should (2 Timothy 3 vs 16-17) and you read Roman's 9 then it would seem God is sovereign and has for knowledge this means original sin was planned Jesus's death was planned. Some people were born for the sole purpose of burning in Hell forever because that pleases God. At what point does God become guilty he doesn't because he God he makes the rules.
Ok I have them all in my cart, which one should I read first? Can you please rate them from 1 to 5 so that I know in which order to read them please and thank you ❤
We need to understand the Holy Bible by God through His Holy Spirit. Before we read or study even one verse, we must fervently ask God for His Holy Spirit to give us all God’s truth, understanding, wisdom, discernment, correction and peace that God wants us to have – because God does want us to have those things.
Oh my God, you silly clowns for Christ are so ridiculous if I need to buy and read a book from a Christian apologist in order to get the true meaning of Christianity in Jesus, what a fucking joke all you have to do is read the Bible read all the lies read all the contradictions read all the historical errors read all the scientific errors read all the pornography and you’ll come to the conclusion that the Christian God doesn’t exist and if he does, he’s nothing but an immoral thug you don’t need books by Christian authors to get that understanding
Your “logic” isn’t always logical. There is such a thing as Bad logical reasoning. In order for Logic to arrive at a a rigorous & reliable conclusion, ALL the premises used need to be Fact ! There are very few facts you can present related to the bible.
You might have a lot of testimonies but words & speech DON’T necessarily constitute fact. I suspect that you bought into the mysticism & supernaturalism because (whether or not you realize it) you are fearful of your own inevitable death. All things in a material universe die.
Here are some (mostly) beginner-friendly apologetics books I recommend, just in alphabetical order by title. 😇
01. Can We Trust the Gospels? (Peter Williams) 02. Confessions of a French Atheist (Guillaume Bignon) 03. A Good and True Story: Eleven Clues to Understanding Our Universe and Your Place in It (Paul Gould) 04. The History of Apologetics: A Biographical and Methodological Introduction (eds., Alister McGrath, Joshua Chatraw, and Benjamin Forrest) 05. Long Journey Home (Os Guinness) 06. Myths and Mistakes in New Testament Textual Criticism (eds., Elijah Hixson and Peter Gurry) 07. Scribes and Scripture: The Amazing Story of How We Got the Bible (John Meade and Peter Gurry) 08. Why I Believe, parts 1 and 2 (Steve Hays). 09. Why Is There Evil in the World (and So Much of It)? / 40 Questions about Suffering and Evil (Greg Welty) 10. Why Should I Believe Christianity? (James Anderson)
Jesus did not leave us a book. Jesus left us the Holy Catholic Church, which Jesus Himself built. There is no other church. I invite all to come home to the Holy Catholic Church which Jesus built for the salvation of souls.
What books would you add to the list?
Mere Christianity, Evidence That Demands a Verdict, The Case for Christ, I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist
Again your goal is to prove that Christianity is true, not God, not Jesus… to try and prove your religion is right and all other beliefs are wrong- because your book has convinced you so
Thank You 🙏🏾
Amen i will buy some of these books thanks for the tip 😉👍🏻🙏🏼✝️
Street smarts!
If god were real he wouldn’t need apologists
Books about belief in a god but no god because god is hiding inside your head.
🔥🔥🔥
Problem is that most people read these alternatives instead of THE HOLY BIBLE. If you read to supplement is one thing but don’t replace the Bible with alternative reading! The word of God is enough to stand on its own!

Thanks! Just ordered them all.
How can i get those books? Im from Manila. Thanks for featuring this information.
Thank you. I love videos like this one
It seems like apologetics are look in a bad light in Churches? Why’s that?
I only have only read Tactics.
Another one I would add is,
The Case For Life by Scott Klusendorf.
Ok I have them all in my cart, which one should I read first? Can you please rate them from 1 to 5 so that I know in which order to read them please and thank you ❤
John Lennox needs to be mentioned.
This is brilliant! Thank you
Thanks a lot! I can use those!😊
Surprised ‘Defending Your Faith’ by Sproul wasn’t on the list. Much easier and better logical structure than WLC’s ‘On Guard.’
Gotta add Mere Christianity and then maybe
The Case for Christ
I Don't Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist
Evidence that Demands a Verdict
I hope to get a case for Christ this upcoming Christmas, as for these books I may get them for my 22nd birthday or next Christmas
I Don’t Have enough Faith to be an Atheist by Norman Geisler and Frank Turek.
Great recs, Mr. B!
Would anyone like to practice what they have read on me, a willing participant who current does believe the god of Christianity is not a reality?
No summa theologica by Saint Thomas aquinas?
actually number 1 is: The Word of God, The Bible.

Arguments don’t conclude facts dude they conclude claims do better research..
Almost like God left some stuff out. And those poor Christians before YouTube, before books, before literacy. How lost they must have been.
Liked tactics a lot.😊
Thank you bro I needed this

What does "apologetic books" mean?
I would recommend a textbook on logic and critical thinking from a reputable university.
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed right now.
Thank you so much 🙏

Wow… 5 whole books, and the christian apologetics are still on neanderthal level. How tragic..
