Christians confess: "I was wrong."

Do Christians blindly believe that God exists and the Bible is His word?

Authors who defend the faith (Christian apologetics) admit..

The most influential apologist from the 1900s was C.S. Lewis. He was originally an atheist and did not want to except what he observed to be true. Lewis stated the he came into Christianity "kicking and screaming". Gary Habermas today is the world's leading expert on the historical evidence for the resurrection. Before looking into the resurrection, he doubted the Bible, argued with and debated Christians and considered becoming a Buddhist.
One of today's leading apologists Lee Strobel once thought, "the idea of God existing is just stupid, looking into Christianity is not worth my time."
Popular author and speaker Josh McDowell he says: "I thought Christians were walking idiots, if they had a brain cell it would die of loneliness." "Christianity is for weaklings it's not intellectual." "My conversion was ego-shattering." He now has authored/co-authored 100 books about the faith he tried to prove wrong.
Ralph Muncaster was forced to attend church as a child and it turned him into a hardened atheist. As an adult someone challenged him to prove the Bible wrong. Three years later (in his mid 30's) he accepted Christ.

Sir William Ramsey one of the greatest archeologists spent 30 years trying to disprove the New Testament. After many archeological findings he finaly became a Christian and said, "Luke is one of the greatest historians of all time."

Lawyer Frank Morison set out to prove that the resurection was a myth and planned to write a book on his findings. After reviewing the facts using his legal training he changed his mind. And wrote his book about the evidence for Christ's Resurection.

Many other authors have taken the path (from skeptic to a believer).. Norman Geisler, Frank Turek, Anthony Horvath, J. Budziszewski, Philip E. Johnson, C.S. Lewis, Ralph Muncaster, Lee Strobel, Josh McDowell, Sir William Ramsey, Simon Greenleaf, Frank Morison(geneticist), Mortimer Adler, Steve Beren, John Whitcomb, Kirk Cameron, Bruce Cockburn, Franicis Collins, Joy Gresham, Alister McGrath(biochemist), William J. Murray, Monty White, George R. Price(geneticist), M. Scott Peck . I'm sure there are more that I haven't found out about yet.

Praise the Lord for what he has done and continues to do threw the lives of these men!
Jesus Christ continues to lead people to the truth of His Message.
