Probably “old news” for some. But something hit me in reading Keller’s (generally good) book The Reason for God that some might find interesting. Tim Keller is on the part-time faculty list for Westminster Theological Seminary (PA): Timothy J. Keller Adjunct Professor of Practical Theology B.A., Bucknell University, 1972; M.Div., Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, 1975; D.Min., [...]

I have been spending a lot of time recently preparing to teach “protology” at the Iowa Bible Institute (IBI) this summer. While gathering extensive resources and attempting to read whatever I can get my hands on regarding creation and the first few chapter of Genesis, I have also been giving a lot of thought about [...]

Theistic evolution is a serious threat to the Christian worldview. It is a harmful doctrine that compromises Christian theology (especially anthropology and man as image of God) for the sake of upholding Darwin’s theory of common decent.

As most of you know, RealApologetics.org has been anti-theistic-evolution from its very beginning, manifesting that apologetic goal of defending the truthfulness of the Scriptures regarding creation in a lengthy critique of the BioLogos forum, other critiques regarding Genesis, and more recently, a podcast series critiquing the standard liberal perspective on Genesis (“it’s all symbolism” etc.).

In simpler words, [...]

As I promised, the straw man re-appears: Paul was an ancient man, not a modern one. Should we expect him, therefore, to share views of the world, of humanity, the cosmos, etc., common to his time? Or, does Paul’s inspired status mean that his view of physical reality transcends his time and place? Has anyone [...]
