Enklemics:
An Examination of Objections to the Faith

by Benjamin Johnson

This series begins with a definition of "enklemics."

Enklemics is the practice of lovingly tearing down or dissolving "every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of GOD" through a more honest application of a rigorous knowledge of the nature and attributes of the LORD, as well as the implications of His divine revelation in Scripture.  That is to say, the enklemist appreciates that GOD Himself is the only true resolution of every objection to His reality and work.  Rather than a "defense" of the Christian faith in the more commonly juridical sense, the enklemist proposes to examine the non-rational (if not self-contradictory) nature of the objections of the unbeliever in the hope of exposing to them their own naked and groundless hostility against GOD as He speaks to them in His own marvelous way to the magnificent glory of His Name.  It would also be true to say that enklemics is a way of evangelism which acknowledges that all rational thought and activity is a religious striving after an ultimate desire, and that the ultimate desire of the unbeliever is ethically, and therefore logically, empty.
