Abstract
This research project is an academic research on apologetics, which will be taught in the in the future in local church. Many people in the Christian community may be attending the local church and living in their community that may not clearly understand apologetics. As followers of Christ, in the Christian community and the local church, can everyone defend the Faith and feel comfortable? In the Old and New Testament, God has given His road map for man. He came, lived, was buried, and resurrected for all humankind that would accept Him as their personal Lord and Savior. As Christians, we are the Ambassadors of God, chosen by Him to witness this work and be a light in the darkness, to introduce others to the saving knowledge and power of Jesus Christ. This research will provide lessons to be taught in the local church to provide essentials that will stipulate an understanding of how to define and defend the Christian faith. This information will provide the Christian community with education, therefore, giving them the ability to accurately and confidently defend their faith. This academic research will give the necessary information to educate one on apologetics.
