Attack

Q: I just saw a movie that was a clever attack on the Christian faith (in my opinion). Although it was only a story, it claimed Jesus was just another man and there isn’t any reason to believe He was the Son of God. Why would someone want to tear down people’s faith? — J.W. [...]

Slowing Down

Over the last 6 months, I’ve answered 134 of these questions. Both the questions and Billy Graham’s answers are as ridiculous as ever, but the questions and my answers are starting to get too repetitious. Therefore, I will be decreasing the frequency of my postings to about 2 per week. This way I can hopefully [...]

Rational Uncle

Q: My uncle just laughs when I say something about the Bible, because he says it’s full of errors and contradictions. How can I answer him? It’s hard to talk to him about religion because he doesn’t feel any need for God. — K.F. A: Before answering your uncle you should read the parts of [...]

Singularity II

Q:Do you think computers will take over the world some day? I admit I don’t understand them very much (although I’m learning to use e-mail, which is pretty good for someone in her late 70s!). But they seem to have taken over so much of our lives that I worry about this. — Mrs. M.B [...]

Hypocrites

Q: If Christianity is true, then why are most of the so-called “Christians” I know hypocrites? I’d rather be a complete unbeliever (which is what I am) than someone who claims to be a Christian but doesn’t act like it. At least I try to be a good person, and they don’t. — J.H. A: [...]

Pain Relief

Q: I’ve had severe back pain for over a year (after two unsuccessful surgeries), and now I’m afraid I might be getting hooked on my pain medicine. But I’m afraid to tell my doctor for fear he’ll take me off it. I need your prayers. — J.McF. A: You should tell your doctor about this [...]

Wasting Time

Q: I know I ought to tell others about Jesus and urge them to believe in Him, but the last time I tried I failed so miserably that I haven’t attempted it since. I couldn’t answer their questions, and I know they must have thought I was a fool, but I couldn’t help it. — [...]

Do You Have A Reservation?

Q: Did people in Old Testament times go to heaven when they died? Or is heaven reserved only for people who lived after Jesus came? I haven’t found anything about heaven in the Old Testament. — L.D. A: Since the Christian heaven does not exist, no one has ever gone there when they died, and [...]

Defined

Q: What is your definition of a Christian? If someone were to ask them, most of my friends would say they are Christians, and most of them go to church (at least occasionally). But I’m not sure they really measure up to what Jesus expects of them. — K.W. A:     Main Entry: Chris·tian   Pronunciation: [...]
