I Don't Have Enough FAITH to Be an ATHEIST

A 14-year-old young lady wrote to Frank a question about reaching out to her bisexual friend. How can she do that effectively? This is a sensitive and emotional issue in our culture today, and many people are ready to pounce on you with several objections (and names) if you express the biblical view of sexuality. Frank offers some advice and facts about the situation to help improve the chances that any outreach effort will yield light rather than heat. Frank also responds to questions about: The morality of marijuana use How much is America sliding toward judgment like ancient Israel?

Cosmic Child Abuse? Answering Moral Objections to the Atonement

For two thousand years, Christians have understood the death of Jesus to be substitutionary—a sacrifice that paid for our sins. From the earliest creeds to the teaching of the New Testament to the writings of the Church Fathers to today, this has been a core belief of Christianity throughout its history. But in modern times, this idea is being repudiated as “Cosmic Child Abuse.” On today’s show, we are going to address these questions: • What is the historic belief of the Christian church on atonement? • Why does God have wrath and how can that be a good thing? • Is penal substitutionary atonement a late invention of medieval Christians? • If God required the sacrifice of his Son, doesn’t that make him a Divine child abuser? • If I can just forgive people without a sacrifice, why can’t God?

Does logic apply to God? And other questions

Can we put God in a box of our own logic? Aren’t His ways higher than our ways? Did God invent logic? Did human beings invent it? Frank goes deep into those questions to the foundation of reality. He also takes a fresh look at an often-misinterpreted passage in Isaiah 55 about God’s ways being higher than ours. Other questions addressed in this show include: Is morality subjective and based on the majority vote? Does every negation really imply an affirmation? How can Hell be separation from God if God is everywhere? Subscribe on iTunes: http://bit.ly/CrossExamined_Podcast rate and review! Thanks!!!
