“Is Jesus the only way to God?”
Jesus is the One who said that He is the only way to the Father. For Christians to say that there are other ways to find peace with God is to bear false testimony. In one sweeping statement, Jesus discards all other religions as a means of finding forgiveness…

“Did Jesus Christ Ever Exist?”
Surprisingly, some skeptics claim that Jesus didn’t exist, though to do so they have to reject the entire New Testament historical record. The New Testament contains hundreds of references to Jesus Christ, and in terms of ancient manuscript evidence, this is extraordinarily strong proof of the existence of a…

“Are people who have never heard of Jesus Christ going to hell?”
The inference is that those who have never heard the gospel basically good people who do not deserve to go to hell. So, tell the questioner that they will be fine–if they are good people. However, in God’s eyes “good” is moral perfection in thought, word, and deed. So…

“Why does God allow evil?”
Why does God allow evil men and women to live? Should He instead kill them before they do evil deeds? Should He judge murderers and rapists now? What about thieves and liars, adulterers, fornicators, those who lust, and those who hate? If God judged evil today, all unconverted men…

“Why did God order the killing of an entire people group? That’s genocide.”
The reason we can so quickly fault God for wiping out multitudes of people is that we have a subjective definition of what is “good”. For example, we define “good” perhaps as helping some old lady across the street. Someone watching us do such a task is impressed with…

“Why is there suffering? That proves there is no loving God.”
The world we live in is far from perfect: natural disasters, diseases and wars. What sorts of a tyrant must our Creator be if this was His master plan? Sadly, many use the issue of suffering as an excuse to reject any thought of God, when its existence is…

“Why does God want to torture people in hell?”
God will not “torture” anyone. He will simply give them justice. A criminal who viciously raped three teenage girls may believe that his being thrown into a cold prison cell is torture. The judge knows better. He calls it “justice.” God will “damn” rebellious sinners from all that is…

“Who Made God?”
To one who examines the evidence, there can be no doubt that God exists. Every building has a builder. Everything made has a maker. The fact of the existence of the Creator is axiomatic (self-evident). That’s why the Bible says, “The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is…

“There is no reason to believe that a supernatural, intelligent Creator exists.”
There are trillions of reasons to believe in a supernatural, intelligent Creator. From DNA to the basic atom, to the millions of stars and the entire universe, there is incredible complexity and order throughout creation. What proof is there that God exists? Even though through my natural senses, I…

“If God exists, why doesn’t He speak for Himself, audibly?”
He did speak audibly to Israel when He gave them the Ten Commandments, and the Bible says that Israel was so fearful at what they saw and heard, they pleaded that He no longer speak to them (see Exod. 20:18,19; Heb. 12:19). When He spoke on the Mount of Transfiguration, He…
