A brief ideas of what is Christian Apologetics!

Apologetics come from Greek word "Apologia" meaning "making a defense". Christian Apologetics started because of increase attacks from radical philosophers and critics toward Christian faith. Apologetics does not come from man's intelligent but from the Bible itself. Bible is now fully understood as well furnish with ample evidence without doubt it is the word of God. On the other hand, polemics deals with attack or objection originating from people "within" the Christian faith or community. Overall, Apologetics and Polemics are not different at all i.e. to refute error, to remove the sincere doubts in between believers and unbelievers, to demonstrate only Bible is the word of God that Christ faith provide permanent peace and happiness and to establish truth. Beginning from Old Testament to New Testament until modern times, opposition inside and outside church tries to disproof the Bible as just a fairy tales but proven wrong by the Bible itself through archaeology and scientific research with "genuine" interests and not with willful blindness or stubbornness to accept due to fear from own personal distrust or lacks of coherence for what they believe in. The needs of studying apologetics is for our own faith as an aid in witnessing, a better way to recognize when been attacked and knowing how to tackle the enemy. The purpose of Christian Apologetics are defending the reliability of the Bible is more than a man word operation as the Bible is an inspired word of God. It can be explained without the helps of science, it helps seekers of God to find the truth, it does not need any treatment or demands from willful reception from rationalists or radical and the message of the Bible can take away all doubts or suspicions.

In conclusion, we must not be ignorance in the word of God. We need to understand the power of God through the Bible (as error free) and never be doubtful or ashamed of its faith that builds us to enable us to counter attack those against the Bible. We need to grow together in the word of God by what is taught in the Bible instead of our own human intelligent.
