Christian-Apologetics on Glory in Christ

My Sabbath Journey: How Christ Led Me Into His Rest

Sun, 27 Sep 2026 12:00:00 +0100

When I chose to leave Islam and follow Christ, I went through a series of rapid transformations. The most obvious was my sudden ability to quit smoking and vaping with what felt like minimal effort — a habit I had tried, and repeatedly failed, to break since my mid‑twenties.

Like many new believers, I expected clarity, confidence and joy to follow as my eagerness to learn grew. Yet becoming a Christian — though the most profound transformation a person can experience — can also be deeply challenging. It came at a cost, as I wrestled with doubts, old habits and the weight of seeing the world through an entirely new lens.

As my convictions deepened, my sense of isolation deepened with them. I no longer fitted in at work as I once had, and I often struggled to relate to my non‑Christian friends, many of whom understandably held the same negative view of Christianity that I once had. I even felt distant from fellow believers who had known Christ all their lives. Their confidence made me feel less deserving because of my background. In that loneliness, I immersed myself in online teachings about the Trinity, difficult passages of Scripture and end‑times prophecy. Looking back, I can see that not everything I consumed strengthened my understanding in a healthy way. Even so, God used that season to teach me discernment — a lesson I am still learning today.

Building My Faith on Scripture

Why I Believe the Bible Tells the True Story of the World

In my previous post, I said that I was excited to begin a deeper exploration into God’s heavenly kingdom and the divine council — and it is through this post that I hope to finally share the gospel with my father this week. I also recommended an insightful video from BLK SHP Bible Talk called “What They Didn’t Teach You About Genesis 6”, which is what this post will be primarily drawing from. If you have not watched it yet, I would encourage you to watch it after reading this, as it will help you see the biblical framework more clearly.

I always enjoyed the stories my dad would tell me about Krishna and the Hindu gods. Although he did not believe in them, he was curious about where these stories came from. I was curious too. And this brings us to one of the most surprising discoveries I made in Scripture: the reality of God’s heavenly council.

Standing Firm in Truth: A Call to Rooted Faith in an Age of Deception

Sun, 06 Sep 2026 18:00:00 +0100

Across my recent writings, I have been exploring the foundations of the Christian faith and the challenges believers face in a world full of competing claims. I have examined why Islam’s teachings cannot account for the identity and mission of Jesus, why the Trinity is essential to understanding God as He truly is, why spiritual discernment is necessary in an age of deception, and why sin is far deeper than outward behaviour — a heart problem only Christ can cure. Together, these posts form a single message: we must be rooted in Scripture, clear about who Jesus is, honest about the human condition, and alert to false gospels that distort the truth. Only a faith grounded in God’s Word can stand firm when confusion rises and the world pulls in many directions.

Why Good Deeds Cannot Save Us: The Real Problem of Sin

Sun, 30 Aug 2026 09:00:00 +0100

I promised that in my next post I would be addressing the problem of sin, but before diving in, I wanted to begin with a thought that formed during a walk yesterday with my husband and our dog “Poppy” through the wooded area of our local park. As we wandered beneath the trees, I spent the time reflecting on how best to approach this post. The woods were peaceful — quiet and still beneath the light rain, aside from our springer spaniel’s sudden bursts through the undergrowth. Yet even then, we felt a deeper silence inviting us to linger in prayer and listen for God’s response.
