Great audio. What I took from it that was most important was that there is no naturalistic explanation to account for the eyewitness testimony of the Apostles in various group settings. You really can't ask for a better proof of who God is. It is the ultimate proof of God.

What struck me in that audio was that Geoff Campos really had nothing solid he was willing to provide that would convince him of the supernatural or that God exists or that Jesus rose from the dead. I find this is the nature of all non-Christians, atheists and agnostics alike, and from other faiths, is that they are so vague in their approach it is in Satan's interest to maintain that soul in such vagaries.

They have nothing solid where they say YES, IF such and such happens I would definitely give my life to Christ and that sort of thing.

I propose to you this state of vagueness has as its foundation this very attitude of disobedience, independency and hostility to one's Creator despite the evidence which is why they are they way they are.

It is a free choice to be obstinate to God. This is why God created Hell. Free will would not truly be free if you didn't have the free choice to eternally separate yourself from God.

No naturalistic explanation exists.
