Nice, a bookmark for the Great Debate!
Please contact us, all Bahnsen audio files are copyrighted by Covenant Media Foundation, they are not yours to give them away.
Randy, I think you are mistaken. We don’t host the audios therefore we are not giving them away.
This is a great debate. Dr Bahnsen is straight to the point, never loses focus and keeps on hitting the nail on the head, everytime. Download these 2 mp3’s … now!
Just so you guys know, there are three parts to the great debate. Only two are provided here. To find the other part, go here: http://openairpreaching.com/Apologetics.html God Bless…

[...] On another note, I had been looking for this MP3 audio debate for some time now and I found it just recently and decided to share it with others. This is the famous debate between the late Gordon Stein and the late Greg Bahnsen on “Does God exits?”. If you have never listened to this debate, it should be required of you since it shows the beauty of pressupositional apologetics and the atheists lack of being able to deal with the transcedential argument.

This debate just proves that the existence of God cannot be logically proven. I just wish that Christians don’t get into this debate with non believers. Either you are going to believe or you will not. Your personal experiences are your proof of his existence. Not a Bible, not a church, not a prophecy and not a minister. So please stop with the meaningless debates. They prove absolutely nothing.
Me, Atlanta/US
Have you listen to the debates?
btw, what constitute proofs?
also, how do you know that your senses are logical and coherent?

Hey Andy,
I REALLY appreciate the site!!
I saw the msg. above from Randy from “Covenant Media Foundation”. Of course, on their website these debates cost money. Do you know if it is legal to have these debates on here for free?
I want to let A LOT of people know about this site but in good conscience I don’t feel free to do that right now since Randy said that “Covenant Media Foundation” OWNS the copy rights to Greg Bahnsen’s material.
Can you help?
Eric P,
We do not upload any files for download. We simply link them to other websites that do upload those files.
Thanks Andy.
So I guess the next question is whether those whom you’re linking to are legally providing the debates from Bahnsen….? If Randy from Covenant Media Foundation is right, even that group would not be able to legally provide the debates for free since CMF owns the copy rights and they choose to charge money.
I sincerely just want to honor the Lord here and adhere to the laws of the land (Rom. 13).
Any thoughts brother?
Thanks so much!!!!
Eric,
I doubt that the host of the files has been granted permission to freely distribute them.
Eric,
That is a good question for them.
I just purchased these media from Covenant Media. There are several messages about copyright throughout the order process, each stating that these recordings are not for free redistribution.
