Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 3048 Some claim that Jesus never actually said He was God – that this was a later invention by the Church. They point out that Jesus often called Himself the “Son of Man” and referred to God as His Father, suggesting distinction rather than identity. Is this accurate? Did Jesus actually claim to be…
Reading Time: 5 minutesQuestion 3028 This question strikes at the heart of who Jesus really is. If Jesus was born in Bethlehem around 4 BC, how can Christians claim He is eternal? Wasn’t there a point when He didn’t exist? This apparent contradiction has puzzled honest seekers and been exploited by cults for centuries. Yet the answer reveals…
Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 4001 When Christians speak of the Holy Spirit, it is worth pausing to ask what they actually mean. For many, the Spirit remains a vague and largely undefined presence, invoked in prayer and worship but not clearly understood. The New Testament does not leave the question open. It presents the Holy Spirit with specificity…
Reading Time: 5 minutesQuestion 3011 This is a question that naturally arises from the Gospel accounts. John’s baptism was “a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins” (Mark 1:4). People came confessing their sins and being baptized in the Jordan. But Jesus had no sins to confess. He needed no forgiveness. So why did He insist on…
Reading Time: 4 minutesQuestion 3010 This question pushes further into the mystery of the incarnation. When exactly did Jesus become aware that He was the eternal Son of God? Did He know from the moment of His birth—or even before, in the womb? Or was this awareness something that developed over time? We are probing deep waters here,…
Reading Time: 5 minutesQuestion 3005 The hypostatic union is one of the most profound doctrines in all of Christian theology. It describes how Jesus Christ can be both fully God and fully man at the same time, united in one Person. This is not merely an academic curiosity for theologians to debate; it is essential to the Gospel…
Reading Time: 5 minutesQuestion 3004 The deity of Jesus Christ is the foundation upon which Christianity stands or falls. If Jesus is not God, then Christianity is false, and we are still in our sins. But if Jesus is truly God, then everything changes. His words carry divine authority, His death has infinite value, and His promises are…
Reading Time: 5 minutesQuestion 3001 This is perhaps the most important question any person can ask. It is the question Jesus Himself put to His disciples at Caesarea Philippi: “Who do you say that I am?” (Matthew 16:15). Your answer to this question determines your eternal destiny. It is not enough to know about Jesus; you must know…
Reading Time: 3 minutesQuestion 3026 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son…” (John 3:16, KJV) This phrase has comforted believers for centuries, but what exactly does it mean? Does “begotten” imply that Jesus had a beginning? Did the Father create the Son at some point in eternity past? These are not trivial…
Reading Time: 7 minutesQuestion 0048 It sounds so reasonable, so irenic, so Christian. “Doctrine divides, but Jesus unites.” The sentiment is appealing, especially to those weary of theological controversy and ecclesiastical strife. Why argue about doctrine when we could simply gather around Jesus? Why draw boundaries when we could be building bridges? Yet beneath this pleasant-sounding phrase lies…
