The renaissance of Christian philosophy has been accompanied by a resurgence of interest in natural theology, that branch of theology that seeks to prove God's existence apart from divine revelation.

More quotes by William Lane Craig
If you're sincerely seeking God, God will make His existence evident to you.
William Lane Craig
For the assertion that There is no God is just as much a claim to knowledge as is the assertion that There is a God. Therefore, the former assertion requires justification just as the latter does.
William Lane Craig
Faith is trust or commitment to what you think is true.
William Lane Craig
The point is this: If God does not exist, then life is objectively meaningless but man cannot live consistently and happily knowing that life is meaningless so in order to be happy he pretends life has meaning. But this is, of course, entirely inconsistent—for without God, man and the universe are without any real significance.
William Lane Craig
Certainty is an unrealistic and unattainable ideal
William Lane Craig
If there is no God, then man and the universe are doomed. Like prisoners condemned to death, we await our unavoidable execution. There is no God, and there is no immortality. And what is the consequence of this? It means that life itself is absurd. It means that the life we have is without ultimate significance, value, or purpose.
William Lane Craig
It's no longer enough to teach our children Bible stories they need doctrine and apologetics.
William Lane Craig
But the argument is still unsound, because the first premise is false: there are other unmentioned alternatives, for example, that Jesus as described in the gospels is a legendary figure, so that the trilemma is false as it stands.
William Lane Craig
The mere possibility provides no warrant for denying what I clearly grasp.
William Lane Craig
The man who feels like he's a woman trapped in a man's body, when he goes into the ladies room, it's the other women whose privacy it seems to me as being violated by having this man walk in... regardless of how he feels.
William Lane Craig
It’s the combination of improbability with an independently given pattern that discredits chance.
William Lane Craig
Successful evangelism involves not only harvesting, but sowing and watering, too. We must never think that because a nonbeliever remained unconvinced by our case that our apologetic has failed. For one encounter is not the end of the story.
William Lane Craig
The Bible says all men are without excuse. Even those who are given no good reason to believe and many persuasive reasons to disbelieve have no excuse, because the ultimate reason they do not believe is that they have deliberately rejected God's Holy Spirit.
William Lane Craig
Part of the broader task of Christian scholarship is to help create and sustain a cultural milieu in which the gospel can be heard as an intellectually viable option for thinking men and women.
William Lane Craig
Okay, look at it this way: if the evening news has a very high probability of being accurate, then it's highly improbable that they would inaccurately report the numbers chosen in the lottery. That counterbalances any improbability in the choosing of those numbers, so you're quite rational to believe in this highly improbable event.
William Lane Craig
In the 20th century philosophy of time for a great many theorists became part of science because it was time as is studied in physics that became the object of philosophical speculation. That's very different from the way time has normally been understood.
William Lane Craig
The person who follows the pursuit of reason unflinchingly toward its end will be atheistic or, at best, agnostic.
William Lane Craig
If true love came at a price, the price would be all worth while if i was spending it on you.
William Lane Craig
The Christian faith does not call for us to put our minds on the shelf, to fly in the face of common sense and history, or to make a leap of faith into the dark. The rational person, fully apprised of the evidence, can confidently believe.
William Lane Craig
The simple fact that the Christian fellowship, founded on belief in Jesus' resurrection, came into existence and flourished in the very city where he was executed and buried is powerful evidence for the historicity of the empty tomb.
William Lane Craig
