"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land." - 2 Chronicles 7:14

Prof John Lennox's account - providing the latest news about his work on science, ethics, artificial intelligence, and Christianity.
- “I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” - Galatians 2:20
- My faith in Christ is evidence based. Faith is also essential in science. Einstein said he couldn't imagine a genuine scientist without faith -- for scientists must believe science can be done and believe that the human mind is capable of understanding nature (at least in part).
00:00 - You were made in the image of God - the heavens may show God's glory but they were not made in his image. You were.
00:00 - "Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength." - Isaiah 40:28-29
- Faith is not a leap in the dark; it’s the exact opposite. It’s a commitment based on evidence… It is irrational to reduce all faith to blind faith and then subject it to ridicule. That provides a very anti-intellectual and convenient way of avoiding intelligent discussion.
- "The first gulp from the glass of natural sciences will turn you into an atheist, but at the bottom of the glass God is waiting for you" - Werner Heisenberg
- The happiest of Christmases to you all! "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." - Romans 15:13
- Either human intelligence ultimately owes its origin to mindless matter; or there is a Creator. It is strange that some people claim that it is their intelligence that leads them to prefer the first to the second.
- Modernity has led to a series of misunderstandings that force us to choose between science and religion. Is this actually the case?
00:00 - "'Surely I am coming soon.' Amen. Come, Lord Jesus! The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen." - Revelation 22:20-21 The final words of scripture...
- Tolerance now means affirmation - you are not permitted to say one view is better than another, only different. So, Christianity is now not allowed to make any claim to universality (although Atheism does)...
00:00 - May the Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26.
- John's claim that Jesus is God culminates in this: the man who is God gave his life for each one of us. That sense of value is something we cannot measure.
