@DrJohnFrame Great post, thank you. Practically, how does this affect the apologist’s approach?

The apologist should recognize, therefore, that the unbeliever’s problem is primarily ethical, not intellectual.

Been working on a course on "AI and Ministry." What resources (audio/video) and scholarly/popular articles would you suggest? DM or email if you don't want to respond here. I've already checked with a few of your AI friends. 😉

@ConradMbewe So good

My day ended with fulfilling a preaching assignment with our senior youth ministry who held a music concert outside our church auditorium. It was called “The Nostalgic Music Concert.” My mind went back 44 years ago when we began “Kabwata outreach”. Who would have envisioned this?

@TheGreatB00ks An Authentic Narrative of Some Remarkable and Interesting Particulars in the Life of John Newton

What book do you wish you would have read earlier in life?

@elonmusk @growing_daniel True, except for the child in womb, the weakest and most helpless of all

The fundamental axiomatic flaw of the woke mind virus is that the weaker party is always right (even if they want you to die). For most of history, the operating principle was that might makes right. As we became more civilized, we started to consider right in the absolute. This is sensible.

Has the pro-hamas movement explicitly turned into a suicide cult? Cornel West is a very mainstream representative and he's explicitly encouraging people to commit suicide for the cause. Honestly another bewildering response from this group

@PeterMallouk @charliebilello “Why does he eat with tax collectors and sinners?” And when Jesus heard it, he said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I came not to call the righteous, but sinners.” Jesus (Mark 5:16-17)

@timkellernyc Prayers for you and your family Michael. Tim Keller’s ministry helped save my marriage and soul. Forever grateful

Timothy J. Keller, husband, father, grandfather, mentor, friend, pastor, and scholar died this morning at home. Dad waited until he was alone with Mom. She kissed him on the forehead and he breathed his last breath. We take comfort in some of his last words...

@BrookingsInst @kimbal @EKamarck I agree. But isn’t there a tension in that the person in the womb has rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness too? And shouldn’t those rights imposes limits on other people’s liberties?

“The strength of the pro-choice position goes well beyond the debate over abortion itself. Deep in the American DNA is the belief that we should have as little government and as much liberty as possible,” argues @EKamarck. brookings.edu/blog/fixgov/20…

@timkellernyc As a Christian I bought that libertarian principle for years when it came to politics. I recently heard David Koyzis say that such a principle is utopian and does not apply to any communities we belong to, which seems obvies right. You have now made me doubt it all the more

The common moral framework: Do anything as long as it does no harm to others. Problem: Whose definition of harm? As soon as you apply this ethic we realize everyone has a different definition. It doesn't work.

@timkellernyc Me and my family and extended family have been praying for you and will continue. So thankful for your ministry

Heading down there today. I will tweet here and there if I can, or I will repost some old quotes. If my son Michael comments he will sign his name to the posts. Thank you for your continued prayers.

@Varro_Analytics Some of these frontline journalists are unsung heroes. Watch episode on Yemen. Will have to checkout American Experience

Anyone else love PBS American Experience and PBS Frontline?

@timkellernyc Mind blowing that the second person of the trinity is fully, and forevermore, human

4) The biblical doctrine is that Jesus is neither only divine, nor only human, nor a combination or compromise (‘middle way’) between the two. He is fully divine and fully human—two natures in a single, personal, hypostatic union. In other words, he's off the spectrum.

The Christian Doctrine Of Christ 1) Was Jesus divine but not really human (Docetism)? No. 2) Was he human but not truly divine? No. 3) Was he something in the middle—with a human body but a divine mind (Apollinarianism)? No.

@EmmetPeppers @CommunityNotes That he existed is undeniable from historians of all ideologies. Numerous non-christian sources (Josephus, Talmud, Tacitus, etc) map out the basic framework of his life. The gospels were written as eye witness accounts to be read as historically accurate bios. See gospel of Luke

so odd that the name of perhaps the most important individual in history, is a name that is taboo to say on Social Media or in Western Culture overall...perhaps Twitter will let discussion on the historicity of him become acceptable @CommunityNotes on topic could be fascinating

@wintonARK So sorry Brett. Praying for you and your family. For comfort and peace. come to me all who labor all who are heavy laden and I will give you rest - Jesus

Lost my dad I’ll say this At the end You will realize That there is so so so much That you didn’t Catch the chance To say

@elonmusk Interesting that you bemoan birth rates while Tesla pays for travel expenses for abortions. Great company, terribly policy. Makes me question the ethics of my investment

USA birth rate has been below min sustainable levels for ~50 years
