John Hannah asks the very thought-provoking question, "How can you live out your faith if you don't understand it" in his book "Our Legacy", which chronicles the historicity of the Christian faith. Christians are asked by Christ to be a light and witness to the world, but today, few Christians really have a strong grasp of the foundations of the Christian faith, and even less know how to defend that faith in a world that has always been hostile to the truth of God. This series uses the Apostle's Creed, a statement of faith made by the early Church (about a half-century after the completion of the New Testament), to walk through the foundational beliefs of the Christian faith, with a modern-day defense for each particular doctrine being presented as well.

The only Man to die, go into the grave, walk back out, and stay that way is the same Man who had the higest possible opinion a person could have of the Bible - God's Word. He - Jesus - called it "truth". In a world that considers truth a relative concept, that's a pretty radical claim. But Jesus didn't stop there. He also claimed that the Bible is divinely authoritative, is unbreakable, has ultimate supremacy in life, is without error, is supernatural, and is historically accurate. Was He right? This series examines the Word of God and explores Jesus' claims, addresses criticisms of the Bible, and offers insight into the science of Biblical interpretation.

Paul and Peter specifically sound the alarm in their letters as does the author of the second to the last book in the Bible, which is Jude. Jude had intended to write one letter to his readers, but the Holy Spirit intervened, and he ended up writing a much different letter - one that strongly urged those in the local church to contend earnestly for the one true faith. The reason? Apostate teachers had stealthily slipped into the body of Christ and were polluting the truthful teaching of God with sin and lies. Sadly, nothing much has changed since then. Today, the Church is assaulted with heresies from both outside and within, and Jude's warnings are every bit as applicable today as they were in the first century. This series performs an expostitional examination of the book of Jude and supplies teaching to help modern day apologists, evangelists, and lay Christians defend the faith and recognize apostate/false teachers.

When questioned by the disciples on the Mount of Olives as to what the signs would be that would signal Christ's second coming, Jesus repeated only one sign twice times - the appearance of false christs: " And Jesus answered and said to them, "See to it that no one misleads you. "For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will mislead many. " (Matthew 24:4-5) "Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ,’ or ‘There He is,’ do not believe him. "For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will show great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect. Behold I have told you in advance. So if they say to you, ‘Behold, He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out, or, ‘Behold, He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe them. "For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes even to the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. "(Matthew 24:23-27) This series performs an examination of the false christs that have appeared - the counterfeit christs of false religions, the cults, the occult, humanism, pluralism, and the ultimate counterfeit yet to come - the Antichrist.

Without the resurrection of Jesus, Christianity crumbles into nothing. The Apostle Paul admitted as much when he said, “and if Christ has not been raised, your faith is worthless; you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If we have hoped in Christ in this life only, we are of all men most to be pitied. ” (1 Corinthians 15:17–19) This being the case, it stands to reason that the enemies of God work overtime to try and refute or cast doubt upon the resurrection of Christ. This series takes an in-depth look at the resurrection and examines why Jesus' bodily resurrection is so critical, dives into the trials, murder, and burial of Jesus, conducts a reconcilation of the Easter account in all the Gospels, provides an apologetic defense of the resurrection, and finally, looks at the various victories that the resurrection of Christ accomplished.

Every one of them came true in the first coming of Jesus Christ. The same Scriptures contain nearly 500 prophecies concerning the Messiah's second coming, with literally one out of every twenty-five verses in the New Testament speaking about Christ's return. Given that not one error was made concerning His first coming, what do you think the chances are His second coming will be exactly what the Bible says? This series takes an in-depth look at the second coming of Jesus Christ and examines all aspects of what the Bible says will happen in the future - a future that could begin to happen as early as the very minute you're reading this.

What is the Emerging or Emergent Church? Many have heard the term but most don't know what it exactly refers to. Is the Emerging Church a return to the Biblical concept of Church or is it instead a movement that has become a victim of the very Postmodern philosophies that it originally sought to save other people from? This mini-series examines the Emerging Church's leaders and its teachings. It performs an analysis of Postmodern philosophies and demonstrates how they have invaded the Emerging Church movement to create something that is a far cry from what Scripture says the Church should be from a doctrinal standpoint.
