I'm proud to say that the new slides for my presentation are looking good. I'm trying to draft a logo for my website, so if anyone knows of an artist send them my way. Anyway, the new slides mainly have to do with a Christian response to why we—Reformed Piety & Ethics and Truth Defenders—do what we do, namely to witness/evangelize to people in the public square. I think these slides will at least mitigate some of the unjustified retorts that I hear from empty-headed Christians who don't know the Bible from their rear. My slides mainly deal with Biblical anthropology and Calvinism, since they are inseparable in my point of view. I mainly do a roundabout survey of N. Geisler's book, Chosen but Free, and James White response to Dr. Geisler, The Potter's Freedom.
I'm mainly touching this subject because of the constant criticisms Christians have been leveling against Truth Defenders. Because of the ignorance of the opposite side, I have sought to list some good sources that I think will be helpful in evaluating the debate with "simple" Christians who read nothing "but the Bible." I say that tongue-in-cheek pejoratively, since this statement is actually contrary to what the Bible commands, namely to show oneself approved, well-rounded and educated in every area of study—therefore illustrating the very definition of world view apologetics. It may sound offensive, but honesty is certainly the best policy here.
