Synopsis

A journey into Christian apologetics: Does God exist? Is the Bible true? Is Jesus God? Is Christianity unique? Logic, science, history and scholarship become bridges as doubt is transformed into confidence. Scrutinize the evidence that Christian faith rests upon truth and fact, not legend and myth. Follow the personal odyssey of a man of science as he journeys from skepticism to belief as a man of faith. Logic, science, and history compel the verdict that Christian faith rests upon truth and fact, not legend and myth.

Prepared to Answer. is a no-holds-barred examination of five crucial questions:
Does God exist?
Can we trust the Bible?
Is Jesus of Nazareth really God?
Is the Bible truly inspired?
How do other religions compare?

For answers the author turns to modern-day science, history, and archeology and solid scholarship. Each question is thoroughly explored in its own section of the book. Learn about the missing and faulty evidence for evolution and how modern day discoveries show the signature of a Creator-God. Read about the extensive documentary and historical evidence for the realibility of the Biblical books and their accounts. Study the evidences for Jesus' deity in His miracles, fulfilled prophecies and above all His resurrection. Keen observations, undisputed facts, and persuasive evidence are set forth in a long series of exhibits scattered throughout the volume.

The thoughtful reader will find this book virtually unique among books that present Christian evidences.

It is comprehensive. Enjoy its complete overview of evidence, unlimited to one or two special interests.
It is up-to-date. Explore the impact of recent discoveries upon critical concerns such as the uniqueness of the earth, the failing RNA-world hypothesis, the age of mankind as determined by genetic analysis, the Gnostic library at Nag Hammadi, the so-called gospels of Judas and Thomas, and numerous other vital questions.
It is hard-hitting. Examine the stark contrasts between Christian belief and world religions. Special emphasis is given to Islam, demonstrating that this religion can be traced to its Jewish and Christian roots, devoid of a foundation in truth and historical fact.
