When the natural world is examined with attentive eyes and honest reasoning, it yields credible testimony toward the existence of an intelligent Creator. The argument from design does not aim to replace Scripture but to show that the alignment of scientific observation with rational inference provides a reasonable warrant for belief. Order, fine-tuning, informational complexity, and the presence of objective moral intuition all point toward a personal source who grounds both physical regularities and moral norms.

At the center of Christian proclamation stands the claim that Jesus Christ is at once fully God and fully human. This is not a metaphysical quirk but the necessary condition for a genuine atonement: only one who is divine can bear infinite worth to atone for sin, and only one who is human can represent fallen humanity in the broken world. The classical doctrine of the incarnation insists on both natures without confusion—a paradox to be held with theological precision, not philosophical despair.

The doctrine of the Trinity often provokes resistance on the grounds that it contradicts monotheism, that it is unbiblical, or that it renders Jesus a lesser, created being. A careful, historically grounded defense shows that these objections mistake either the biblical data or the philosophical categories necessary for coherent theology. The Trinity, rightly understood, is the scriptural answer to how the one God can be both utterly simple and yet personal and relational; it is not an attempt to multiply gods but a disciplined description of the pattern the Bible consistently portrays.

Christian faith begins with a claim that is at once simple and profound: there is one God. This assertion is not a theological ornament but the very hinge upon which covenant, worship, and redemption turn. Against readings that fragment the divine reality into multiple ultimate beings—whether modern polytheistic reinterpretations or religious systems that treat the Father, Son, and Spirit as separate gods—the classical Christian conviction insists that the God revealed in Scripture is one in essence. That unity is not numerical thinness but ontological depth: the three persons of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit share a single divine nature, so that the life of God is simultaneously personal and undivided.
