What happens when skepticism stops asking politely?Skepticism Answered: Tackling the 60 Toughest, Most Sarcastic Questions Sceptics Throw at Christians confronts the objections Christians increasingly hear in conversations, classrooms, workplaces, and online-questions designed not only to challenge Christianity but often to make biblical faith appear irrational, immoral, or intellectually indefensible.Rather than answering mockery with mockery, Edward D. Andrews takes each challenge seriously, strips away the sarcasm, exposes the assumptions beneath it, and examines what the Bible actually teaches. Why does Jehovah permit suffering? How can divine foreknowledge coexist with human freedom? Why did God bring the Flood? Why was Christ's sacrifice necessary? Does the Bible conflict with science? Why pray if God already knows everything? What about Satan, divine judgment, difficult Old Testament accounts, the apparent delay of Christ's return, and accusations that Scripture contradicts itself?Drawing upon Scripture, careful reasoning, historical context, and the historical-grammatical method of interpretation, Andrews demonstrates that many popular attacks succeed only by caricaturing biblical teaching, confusing distinct ideas, or removing passages from their context. The book also refuses to defend doctrines and religious traditions that Scripture itself does not teach.Written for Christians who want more than clever comebacks, Skepticism Answered equips readers to understand difficult objections, strengthen their knowledge of God's Word, and give a reasoned defense of their faith with confidence, accuracy, and conviction.The questions are sharp. The answers deserve to be sharper-not in sarcasm, but in truth.
