Goals & Objectives

What is Red Team Apologetics' vision? 

We see a day when all the believers in Jesus Christ are unafraid and unashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ and will be willing and capable of defending and expressing what they believe no matter the skill level. 

What are Red Team Apologetics values? 

Remembering the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Thinking both Biblically and Critically. Responding to others graciously 

What are Red Team Apologetics Objectives?

The primary objective of Red Team Apologetics is to revere Jesus Christ as Lord by proclaiming his lordship and defending his truths. 1st Peter 3: 15

 

The second objective of Red Team Apologetics is to "Refine The Response Of The Believer." We do this by deeply investigating ideologies that set themselves against the bible, comparing the doctrines to the bible, and allowing Christians to provide a biblical response to these subjects. Proverbs 27:17, 2 Corinthians 10:5

 

The last objective of Red Team Apologetics is to defend the Christian Faith by contending for the Faith through debating and discourses while showing gentleness and respect. Jude 3

What We Believe

The Holy Scriptures 

God has revealed all that is necessary for life and salvation in the sixty-six books of the Bible, which is the Word of God. All Scripture is inerrant and infallible, transmitted through human authors by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Scripture alone is the final authority in all matters of doctrine and practice. The power of Scripture is derived from its Author and not from the opinions of men. 

God and the Trinity

One true and living God exists in three eternally distinct persons; the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. These three are one in being, united in purpose, and equally worthy of glory and adoration. God is invisible, eternal, omnipresent, almighty, all-knowing, unchanging, dependent upon none, sovereign, righteous, holy, just, gracious, loving, merciful, patient, and sound. 

Creation

God created all that now exists in six days and from nothing, and it was all perfect. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit acted together in the work of creation. Only man was created in God's image out of all living things. God granted him dominion over all lesser life forms and the earth itself. 

​

The Fall and Its Effects

God made Adam perfect, holy, and upright, appointing him representative head of the human race. He fell from his original righteousness into sin when he disobeyed God's command. By his sinful act, Adam brought all people into a state of death and condemnation, passing to each one of them a corrupt, sinful nature. 

Man's Inability

The fall brought every man into a state of utter depravity, meaning every dimension of his being is distorted by sin. Apart from the grace of God, fallen man treats sin as his master, God as an enemy, and the enemy and the message of the cross as foolishness. Until he is born again, he possesses neither the desire nor the ability to love God, to keep His laws, to understand the gospel, to repent of sin, or to trust in Christ. 

The Life and Ministry of Jesus Christ

The Birth and Life of Christ 

God sent His Son to save His people from their sins. Conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the virgin Mary, Jesus was and is both God and man. He was tempted in all things yet without sin, living the perfect life of righteousness for His people. 

The Death of Christ

Jesus died on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for sin, forever finishing the substitutionary work of atonement for His people. 

The Resurrection of Christ

On the third day, Jesus rose bodily from the grave. The resurrection affirms the deity and authority of Christ and assures believers of their future bodily resurrection. 

The Ascension of Christ

Jesus ascended into heaven to appear in the presence of God and our perpetual High Priest, presenting Himself as the only acceptable sacrifice for sin. He is the only Mediator between God and men and the Head of His church. He intercedes forever on behalf of His people and rules over all things for their sake. 

Election and Responsibility

Before the foundation of the world, God elected a great multitude of men and women to eternal life as an act of His free grace alone. This election was not dependent upon His foresight of human Faith, decision, works, or merit. In the unsearchable realm of God's sovereign will, all men remain responsible beings, subject to God's commands to repent and believe, and accountable to God for their rebellion, impenitence, and rejection of Christ, regenerating elect sinners and drawing them irresistibly to repentance and saving Faith. 

Justification 

The elect is declared righteous in the sight of God because of Christ's perfect life, His substitutionary death, and the imputation of His righteousness. Justification can never be the reward or result of human works or merit, nor does it grow out of an infusion of Christ's righteousness. It is granted by grace alone through Faith alone in the person of Christ alone.
