Welcome to the new website

I finally got a new wordpress installation going. Instead of using “CMS Made Simple”, I went with WordPress because I needed something that I could use and spend more time writing, and less time fidgeting and adjusting.

The goal of vibist.com is to provide resources and commentary in the realm of Biblical Apologetics.

What is apologetics? Apologetics comes from the Greek word apologia, which means answer or defense.  1 Peter 3:15 uses this greek word:

1Pe 3:15  but sanctify in your hearts Christ as Lord: being ready always to give answer to every man that asketh you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, yet with meekness and fear: 

As it applies to Christianity, apologetics is the part of theology that deals with giving a ready defense for the faith.

As such, it means that at times the worldview we take as Christians will differ from that of the population around us. But as Peter says, we are to be ready to give such a defense.

This website will hopefully engage you to be more aware of the practice of apologetics, and witll encourage you to put this field of theology to use. Defend the faith!
