Here is a recent question: I am a Christian by all means,but I’m (basically) a 36 year old with a “2 yr old” brain constantly askying (why? and why?) So back to my question Why do they say he sent his son, wasn’t it kinda Mary’s son too? I mean she did carry him and [...]
Did Jesus Ever Get Sick? Did He Use the Bathroom?
November 11, 2008 by
People often have so many questions about Jesus. After all, he is a very interesting individual, and perhaps one of the most interesting individuals in the history of the world. There is no doubt that if I could jump in a time machine and go back to any date, it would probably be at the [...]
Will People Who Never Heard of Jesus Go to Hell? What About Old Testament People?
October 12, 2008 by
This is a great question people (mostly Christians) often ask. If a person was born on some remote place or island, and they never heard of Jesus, would they go to hell? Another related question is: What about people in the Old Testament who never met Jesus? Will they go to hell? These are all [...]
Did Mary Really Have a Virgin Birth? Was Jesus Born of a Virgin Mother?
October 10, 2008 by
The bible is full of “miracles.” One of the miracles that people often question, and even doubt, is the virgin birth event. People say, “There is no way Mary had a virgin birth.” They usually suspect that Mary and Joseph had premarital sex, and tried to hide it until they were married to prevent persecution [...]
Didn’t Jesus Say He Would Return While Disciples Were Still Alive?
September 29, 2008 by
“And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the kingdom of God come with power.” Luke 9:27. I recently received a question regarding Jesus’ statement above that some standing there would not taste death [...]
What Was Jesus Doing During His Teenage Young Adult Years?
September 22, 2008 by
The bible is almost completely silent on this issue. The only thing it really says is that he grew in favor among men, and increased in knowledge. That is it. So What Was Jesus Doing During His Young Teenage or Early Adult Years? No one can really present facts regarding this question, since that is all of [...]
If Jesus Was God, Why Did His Followers Call Him Master?
September 21, 2008 by
I view it like this: God has always existed. God can’t be created, not destroyed. He always has been, and always will be. Jesus was the firstborn of all creation. God created Jesus before anything else, and through Jesus all else was created by the commands of God. Jesus is the light (hence, notice in [...]
If Jesus is God, Then Why Did He Pray to Himself? How Can He Sit at the Right Hand?
September 18, 2008 by
Some people hold the view that Jesus is God. God in the flesh, and that God was Jesus, and Jesus was God. However, some people view Jesus as God’s son, the messiah, the Christ, and the human Savior, but NOT God exactly. Of course, some just see Jesus as an oridnary man, and some doubt [...]
Why Doesn’t God Heal People? What About Amputees? Does Prayer Work?
September 16, 2008 by
One big argument non-believers (atheist, agnostics, etc.) use to try to disprove the existence of God is Jesus’ words about prayer. Jesus tells us in Mark Chapter 7 that, “Ask and it will be given, seek and you will find, etc.” But we have to look at what Jesus is really saying here. Is he [...]
What Will Jesus Look Like When He Comes Back? Will He Remember Us?
September 15, 2008 by
Recently I received some questions about what Jesus will be like when He returns to establish God’s kingdom. Here were my replies: Question 1: Will Jesus still be the same person He was last time He was on Earth? Yes, in personality He will be the exact same way. This is evidenced by the fact that [...]
Did the Da Vinci Code Movie Change My Belief in God or Jesus?
September 4, 2008 by
No, not at all. I really didn’t like it. I started watching it for the first 20 minutes, and I just thought it was boring and silly with all these messages lighting up and so forth, and I turned off the DVD. Nothing to do with it offending my beliefs, I just thought the movie [...]
Why Didn’t Jesus Cast First Stone at Prostitue? He Was Without Sin?
September 4, 2008 by
He was basically saying, “Okay, since you are about to stone her, let the one of you who is without sin cast it first you bunch of bullies.” He wasn’t saying that he was going to throw it, even though the Bible does describe Jesus as being sinless. He was just making a point. Just [...]
Is the Shroud of Turin Real? Is it Jesus Christ’s Burial Cloth?
September 4, 2008 by
The Shroud of Turin is a very interesting piece of cloth. It has an image of a male, with blood stains, pierced hands, and more. It very much resembles the image of what many consider Jesus may have looked like. So is the shroud of Turin real. First, I am not sure if it is [...]
I am Becoming an Atheist-Why Should I Have to Require Faith in God?
September 4, 2008 by
This is a great question that many of us ask at some point in time. Why, after all, do we have to have so much faith in God? I completely understand & sympathize with people having doubts. I have doubted similar things myself, and even still do occasionally. However, here is the thing I keep coming [...]
Why Should People Pray? Why Does God Want Us to Pray?
August 26, 2008 by
How important is prayer? Should we pray at all? Why does God want us to pray if He already knows what we want? These are all great questions. Here are some of my thoughts on the subject: Why Prayer is Important: First, I think prayer helps you to communicate your feelings, fears, desires, questions, etc. [...]
