The Importance And Validity Of Christian Apologetics

"The validity of Christian apologetics, or of the defense of the gospel, is taken for granted in the New Testament. This is particularly clear in the book of Acts, which is filled with accounts of the defense of the faith by Peter and John, Stephen, Paul, and other leaders of the Church, all of whom were prepared to lay down their very lives in the defense of the Gospel. Not all of the early Christian leaders were intellectuals, but all of them defended the Gospel. The task of apologetics is for all Christians. All people have the same questions, whether they are sophisticated or naive and whether they are well- educated or not."
