[highlight]Lesson #1: BRIEFING – The Attack on Truth (September 3, 2014)[/highlight]

SUMMARY: Our culture is void of truth. A mindset of relativity permeates our existence and challenges the Christian belief in the Bible as the absolute, inerrant, and inspired Word of God. This lesson seeks to answer four questions:

1. How did we get to this point?
2. Where is this logic coming from?
3. How do you know that God exists?
4. How do you know that the Bible is from God?

Pilate asked Jesus, “What is truth?” (John 18:38). But Jesus had already answered that question during His ministry: “[God’s] word is truth” (John 17:17).
