- Lairs, Evils Beasts, Lazy Gluttons – Ep.328 – Titus 1:10-12 Sermon – Cave To The Cross Apologetics
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99HBCrGHHA8
Lairs, Evils Beasts, Lazy GluttonsWe are taking a break for the 4th of July weekend but you can listen to the message I taught on Titus 1:10-12 to my (Patrick’s) church’s college group. Here I discuss the types of false teachers Titus will encounter on the island of Crete and why the Greeks on Crete are like the way they are. Having been reading Greek writings this year has helped in the background prep of this. Who knew a classical education and its content would help with learning?!

Scientism Is Self-RefutingNow that we’ve defined our terms about scientism, what makes it so dangerous? Here we introduce that scientism is self-refuting. This matters because the claims scientism makes means that it then makes science impossible to do. Moreland gives six presuppositions that actual science rests upon and in upcoming episodes we’ll look at those presuppositions.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHyoRRQ_zgE
The Ugly Source Of ScientismWhere did scientism come from? What is the ugly source of scientism? Would anyone be shocked to learn that the love of war and government overreach has led to negative outcomes? This includes universities divorcing their ethics lessons from everything but the humanities. Now, the source for moralism in college is…football?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5rQgTaqho4
Scientism Ruins LivesNow that we’ve defined scientism, we have to talk about why it matters. How scientism ruins lives of us in our so-called modern world. It is exactly those ideas that the West, western science, and Christianity helped to bake into the culture that are eroding away. It’s almost like a foundation has been replaced with sand and it’s shifting.

Miracle Claims Vs. HumeAnd as we wind down our takedown of Hume, we take one final look at Miracle Claims vs. Hume. We address the valid question about competing miracle claims as well as looking at if the Western worldview has outpaced the belief in miracles. Is it over? Have miracles been knocked out of the picture? Well – I didn’t hear no bell.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dj3TDTXjCkc
Hume’s Biased NaturalismComing into the final episodes of this book, we go after Hume’s naturalism being viewed as unbiased science. In fact, it is biased, can’t help but be biased, and by claiming not to want to take sides in religious debates…takes sides in religious debates. Hume’s biased naturalism has been unchallenged in academia, but not here on this highly, HIGHLY respected show.
