  • The Gospel as Apologetic with Brian Hanks

    The Argument from the Gospel

    P1. If a religion or ideology is unique in its affirmation of deep existential truths about the human condition, then it is probably true.
    P2. Christianity is unique in making two deep existential claims about the human condition: 1) we are radically sinful and 2) we need to be rescued
    P3. It is true that we are radically sinful.
    P4. It is true that we need to be rescued.
    Therefore,
    C. Christianity is probably true.
