Against All Opposition: Defending the Christian Worldview
This book is a game-changer. It is THE apologetics manual from THE master apologist.
"We must not be satisfied to present Christianity as the most reliable position to hold among the competing options available. Rather, the Christian faith is the only reasonable outlook available to men." — Dr. Greg L. Bahnsen
Based on lectures that Dr. Bahnsen gave to students in 1991, this book clearly and simply shows how to defend the Christian faith.
An apologetic methodology that claims Christians should be "open," "objective," and "tolerant" of all opinions when they defend the Christian faith is like a person who plans to stop a man from committing suicide by taking the hundred-story plunge with him, hoping to convince the lost soul on the way down.
No one in his right mind would make such a concession to foolishness. But Christians do it all the time when they adopt the operating presuppositions of unbelievers. There are no "neutral" assumptions about reality.
The starting point is the God of the Bible. The Bible begins with this foundational “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Gen. 1:1).
Against All Opposition lays out the definitive apologetic model to help believers understand the biblical method of defending the Christian faith.
Dr. Greg L. Bahnsen (1948–1995) graduated from Westminster Theological Seminary where he simultaneously received the Master of Divinity and Master of Theology degrees. He later received his Ph.D. from the University of Southern California. He is the author of Always Ready, Presuppositional Stated and Defended, VanTil’s Readings and Analysis, and innumerable essays and articles.
