Q:Why do we need apologists to “apologize“ for the Bible? Why do we need people like William Lane Craig or Frank Turek or Cliff Knechte & others to speak in such confusing philosophical parameters, to explain to us concepts that should be crystal clear to anyone reading the Bible? Why do we need scholars we hear about to clear up all the thousands of misconceptions and misinterpretations of the Bible? If we put 100 people in 100 different rooms and ask them simple Christian doctrine questions like how do you get to heaven, what is the Trinity, or what is the book of Revelations about, etc. We get 100 different answers. To me, this is why Christianity is so obviously a man-made philosophy. A God would have no reason to be that confusing.  Edit: My Mormon friends tell me the exact same thing. They say, “I read the book of Mormon and don’t find it confusing. It is very clear maybe read it and you will not be confused." Muslims tell me the exact same thing about the Quran. I was...

Q: Muslim, does your god love Christians and Jews? Muslim : He only loves the good people. Christian reply:  Sir, who is "good"?  See, Jesus cleared that up for us. Man thinks theyre good based on their standards, but God judges based on HIS standards; perfection . Good = perfect. YHWH says one must be perfect like Himself for someone to enter Paradise/Heaven. But no human besides Jesus was perfect. They cant make themselves perfect either, as theyre already imperfect as sinners. Therefore all humanity is Hellbound; since Adam sinned, for all are from Adam. All sin.  Then its too late right?  Enters the 2nd Adam; Jesus, is the only Perfect One, and by this God-Man, through his life, death and resurrection... humans can be forgiven, saved, transformed. His sacrificial work covers us, and the Father sees us as if perfect.  However notice Scripture, that God showed his love for those whom he will save. They were His enemies until the Lord Jesus atonemen...

Q: saw a short video (Christian/Muslim debate) today, & am not on either side, but would like clarity from Christians on this.  So Jesus is God... but he prayed to himself to be saved from death....and raised himself from the dead.... but the idea makes zero sense to me... help ??? A: This helps clarify: God is three Persons but of one Nature.  God's attributes are identical to His essence(1) Jesus the Word, sent by the Father to earth, who then [by Jesus] sent the Holy Spirit to believers [to indwell them](2). 3. So the Son (begotten by the the Father who sent him from Heaven to put flesh on & called Jesus, as therefore the Son) can talk/pray to the other members of the triune Godhead. As 100% God but also now 100% man too, he is able to talk to God and pray to Him. See God was fine within the trinity to enjoy each other's presence prior to creating man. God is eternal and was never created. He always existed. So they can fellowship among each other and didn't need...

Q: as a muslim i find i do not comprehend the "transformation" Christians talk about. How can it be or how exactly is it that "Jesus transforms" a Christian's life? To me it seems many who are "Christian" do not have a transformed life. But it seems many have a transformed life who are muslim, buddhist, or hindu. So how is a transformed life as a Christian proof Jesus is God? Islamic belief is simply says dont associate any partners with god [idolatry?], and the OT also says this, and you follow 10 commandments, and repent then gods forgiveness is guaranteed. It seems simple logic.  A: There are a few things to unpack here and give clarity.  If you look at the OT and NT as 1 "word from God" [ as Christians say] you will see salvation is the same. You put your trust in the promised Messiah who takes away our sins. So in OT they looked towards Him coming, since NT we look back at what he accomplished. But salvation is the same... repent and tru...

Islam, Judaism and Christianity? And aree they different gods?  Well, what is truth?  The difference is they are different religions and have different gods, but Christianity has the true God.  Israel came thru Abraham, Islam didnt really come thru Ishmael but was a religion Arabs embraced.  Islam is a false religion created 600 yrs after the NT. The founder was not arab btw, but a foreigner, and he was just known by a title "Mohammed". He claimed to be visited by Gabriel [funny, why would angels who are only sent to Jews; people of the promise; only sent to Israel, all of a sudden reveal himself to some other person of a pagan nation? He wouldnt], but his wife believed it was demons that visited him, and told him so. He worked hard to try to get the Jews to bless & embrace his nonsense visions [to nefariously gain a following] and they wouldnt . So he hated them & caused them trouble. His supposed writings were not put together until over 400 years after he...
