--Comments by an atheist who became a Christian
www.pytlik.com/observe/deliverus/intro.html"I see many Christians today who are not completely certain of the basis for
their faith. When attacked and ridiculed, they wither and crumble,
unable--or perhaps unwilling--to defend what they believe. I find this
incredulous, because my own faith is based not on opinion, as was my
atheism, but on an astonishing amount of legal-historic evidence. These
beliefs are grounded on historical evidence and eyewitness accounts of
thousands of people who faithfully documented the facts"
Peter confidently stated that he was an "eyewitness" (2 Peter 116). Luke
spoke of the Lord showing himself to the apostles with "many infallible
proofs" (Acts 1:3). John wrote about that "which we have heard, which we
have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have
handled . . ." (1 John 1:1). No wonder the apostle Paul urged Timothy to
"study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be
ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15).
