The Early Church and War

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics, Christian Life, Theology

The early church’s beliefs about war have become a source of heated debate. Pacifists have dogmatically stated that all the Christian leaders before Constantine rejected war as immoral and renounced the military as an occupation for any Christian. For example, Roland Bainton in Christian Attitudes Toward War and Peace stated, “All of the outstanding writers [...]



Was Jesus a Pacifist?

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics, Christian Life, Theology

It would be difficult to overstate the importance of the Gospels. In the pages of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John we find the matchless words and life of the Lord Jesus. No literature, ancient or modern, can ever excel the beauty and depth of the words of Jesus, who spoke as no other man has [...]



An Open Letter to Roman Catholic Apologists

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics

The New Catholic Catechism in Part One, Section 847, states that non-Catholics who “seek God with a sincere heart” and “try in their actions to do his will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience,” will “achieve eternal salvation.”
The Roman Catholic Church has publicly stated that this means that sincere people from [...]



The Romanist View of Authority

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics

I. Romanism’s view of religious authority is usually based on the fallacy of circular reasoning.
They appeal to their church’s authority to prove their church’s authority! This is like rowing with one oar. All you do is go around in circles.
Romanist: The “Church” is the ultimate authority. Protestant: Who says so? Romanist: The “Church” says so.
Protestant: [...]

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics, Philosophy

We can use logic as a tool without being a rationalist because logic itself finds its ontological basis in the nature of the Creator of all things. In term of its nature, a particular principle of human logic is valid if it reflects the Mind of God as revealed in Scripture. Logic thus has an [...]



A Brief History of Reincarnation

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics, World Religions

The present popular Western concepts of reincarnation are actually refinements of the ancient theory of transmigration. This theory states that all human “souls” are involved in a cyclic series of rebirths in which the soul is eventually purged of evil by suffering, administered through the Law of Karma.
In the Indian Vedas, the word “Karma” originally [...]



Materialism

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics, Atheism, Philosophy

One assumption underlying modern atheism is the philosophical system called materialism. Essential to the atheist’s world view, this belief forms his basic attitude toward man and his place in the universe.
The word “materialism” is used in various ways. Its most popular usage refers to people guilty of greed and avarice, a “materialist” being someone whose [...]



The Relative Logic of Atheists

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics, Atheism, Philosophy

The relationship between modern atheism and logic is a precarious one. Beginning with the assumption that there is no God, and, hence, no absolute exists to serve as the basis for any other absolutes, the blight of relativism infected all fields of knowledge. Subsequent history has demonstrated that the spread of relativism is irresistible once [...]



The New Atheism

By Dr. Robert Morey
Category: Apologetics, Atheism, Philosophy

The following article is an excerpt from The New Atheism and the Erosion of Freedom
Militancy is the difference between what was historically known as “atheism” and the modern movement of “antitheism.” The atheists of the old school took a rather relaxed, passive attitude toward God and the Bible. They felt that if people were [...]
