Paul Axton Preaches - In philosophy of religion and apologetics the moral and religious arguments for God proceed from the universality of religious beliefs or morality to the conclusion that God must exist. But is what we call God or the “moral law”  in these arguments perhaps, nothing more than our own projection or the  law of sin and death.

Paul Axton Preaches - The revelation of the two-part name of God to Moses is fulfilled in the divinity and humanity of the incarnate Christ.  The implication is that creation is a fit dwelling for God and Jesus is the story of God.

Paul Axton Preaches - Paul, in Ephesians, describes the Christian life as seeing everything differently, a seeing from the heart or waking up to the light. C. S. Lewis described his baptism as a baptism of the imagination and his Narnia tales illustrate what this waking up or conversion of the imagination entails.

Paul Axton Preaches - Deploying the three most famous apologies or trial defenses in history (the trial of Socrates, Jesus and Paul), the contrast between a defense grounded in this world order (law, reason, power) and one grounded in the Kingdom of God, is used to illustrate the apocalyptic (world disrupting) nature of a proper Christian apologetic.

Paul Axton Preaches - The work of Christ, is one of the most contested aspects of Christianity.  Bad theories of the atonement have obscured the simplicity of the New Testament summed up by Romans 8:2, “For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death” (Romans 8.2).
