Description:
In this book, John Frame unveils some of the “variety and richness of a biblical apologetic.” Defining apologetics as “the discipline that teaches Christians how to give a reason for their hope,” he distinguishes three main kinds of apologetic:  PROOF, DEFENSE, and OFFENSE. He clarifies the relationships of reason, proofs, and evidences to faith, biblical authority, and the lordship of Christ. He offers a fresh look at probability arguments, and gives special attention to the problem of evil. Particularly helpful are his extensive use of Scripture and his presentation of specific lines of argument. A model dialogue in the concluding chapter shows how the various lines of argument work in a conversation with a nonbeliever. 265 pages paperback
