APOLOGETICS:

     Throughout the history of the church, Catholics have defended the teachings of Christianity. Whether it was among the pagans of Rome, the European barbarians, the Druids of Ireland and England, the tribes of Africa, the cultures of Asia and the New World, or the post-Christian Culture of Death that is permeating our current society, Apologetics have gone hand in hand with Evangelization. Realistically they are both interlocking parts of Jesus Christ's command to announce the Good News to all the ends of the Earth. It is simply not enough to "have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ." That personal relationship is nothing more nor less than "conversion."

     True conversion is marked by certain fruits. The fruits of conversion are a love a God, a true desire to know His teachings, and a willingness to serve Him. Therefore you will know a tree by its fruits. True conversion of the heart, to follow God, will be manifested in:

         1) A desire to know and root out all that is sinful in one's life.
         2) A desire to know ALL the Truth about God, salvation history, and the teachings
             of the Roman Catholic Church, the Church Jesus Christ founded and protects
             and directs to this day by the Holy Spirit.
         3) A desire to serve God by a life of Faith, Hope, and Love.
         4) A desire to be happy with God for Eternity in Heaven.

     Apologetics is, then, the study and defense of the Faith and the attempt to bring others to Know, Love, and Serve God in this life in order to be happy with Him for Eternity in the next Life, Heaven.
