The Lord talks to Christians through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. The inerrancy of Holy Scripture, and God’s inability to err (Yes, there are things God cannot do) are a clear indication that we can have supreme confidence in the word of God. For most Christians who engage in apologetics – a reasoned defense of the Christian Faith – the “go-to” verse is from the Apostle Peter (1Ptr.3:15). This verse states, “but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do so with gentleness and respect.” All believers are to be commanded to defend the faith and to answer why we believe in Jesus. This verse, and others, that encourage us to “contend for the faith” means we should have reasons to believe. God purposely ordered us with rational minds so that we might weigh the truth claims of competing worldviews. Keep in mind that only one (or possibly none) of these worldviews can actually be true.
