Is God an Elaborate Schemer and Liar?

About this sermon

What do I say to someone who thinks it’s possible for God to lie, that he treats us like his playthings, and that Jesus’ coming might have been some elaborate scheme to make us think he loves us? Greg Koukl and Amy Hall argue that the Christian story collapses if God is dishonest. The long history of God’s dealings with humanity and the transformed lives of faithful followers show a consistent pattern of genuine love and restoration. The Christian hope—peace with God and confidence in his goodness—cannot be reconciled with the notion of a deceptive deity. #StandtoReason #Apologetics #Christianity #STRask ————— SUBMIT YOUR QUESTION ————— If you'd like to submit your question ahead of time for the Stand to Reason broadcast, or if you'd like to submit a question for the #STRask podcast, fill out our form at https://www.str.org/broadcast. ————— FIND MORE FREE TRAINING ————— Website: https://www.str.org/ Stand to Reason University: https://training.str.org/ Stand to Reason Apps: https://www.str.org/apps ————— CONNECT ————— Twitter: https://twitter.com/STRtweets Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/standtoreason93 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/standtoreason LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/stand-to-reason/ ————— GIVE ————— Support the work of Stand to Reason: https://str.org/donate
