It was a run-down series of old buildings in the bustling downtown of a growing city. Its use had long been forgotten by many residents and once-storied importance largely discounted by an impatient populace racing to build a modern city.

Where to begin? Two weeks ago, we made the comment that for the Christian, everything needs to have warrant, or approval from Scripture. That includes how and what we study about God. In search of scriptural warrant last week, we looked in Scripture at Paul’s repeated use of classical philosophy in his speech and teaching as an example for us. And week before last we looked at God using observations from nature to present an apologetic (defense) of Himself to Job (Job 38-41). Thereby giving us approval from Scripture to use created things from nature, (science, philosophy, and history) in building a defense of the existence of God and the truthfulness of Christianity (1 Pet 3:15). And so, the question now is this; with scriptural warrant from God and Paul in hand, where do we begin to answer the question, “is God dead?”
