You have questions. wE have answers.
Christians have some very strong beliefs about these strange times.
For unbelievers, it’s worth noting that faith is foundational to all worldviews. Faith, described as “evidence of things unseen,” applies whether you believe in a Creator or the big bang with evolution—both require trust in unseen events.
Why Christianity? First, Jesus fulfilled every Old Testament prophecy about the Messiah and was raised from the dead, with many eyewitness accounts recorded. His resurrection is a cornerstone of Christian faith. Furthermore, the survival of Christianity over centuries, despite persecution and martyrdom—including believers still dying for their faith today—speaks to its enduring truth. Christianity also draws on historical events, like Israel becoming a nation in 1948, fulfilling biblical prophecy.
These are reasons why Christians believe their faith is supported not just by belief, but by evidence and real-world events.
It’s understandable to feel that way, but the Bible is actually one of the most well-preserved ancient texts we have. The texts in the Bible were written by people who either witnessed the events themselves or talked directly to eyewitnesses. The Bible also has an unmatched number of ancient manuscripts—over 5,000, compared to just 1,800 for Homer’s Iliad, the next closest ancient work. Plus, the oldest manuscripts, like the Dead Sea Scrolls, match exactly with later texts used for modern translations, showing remarkable consistency. The Bible is made up of 66 different texts, written by different authors over centuries, but they all tell the same story—God’s love for humanity and His plan to redeem us through Jesus Christ. It’s not just myths; it’s a unified message that has stood the test of time.
That’s a really important question, and one that many struggle with. God is loving, but He’s also just. Think of it this way: if a creator makes something, don’t they have the right to determine its future? For example, with AI, humans debate whether it’s too dangerous to continue existing. Similarly, God has standards of “good” and “not good,” and He judges creation by His standards, not ours. God wants us to align with His idea of good, and that’s the key to understanding this tough concept.
God is patient and merciful, waiting for the perfect time. The Bible tells us that He desires for everyone to have the chance to come to faith. We don’t know the exact timing, but we do have clues. Matthew 24 lists signs, like wars, famines, persecution, and a growing coldness in people’s hearts. God is waiting for the last person He knows will accept Him before the tribulation begins—a time when it will be much harder to follow Christ.
It’s true that Christians have expected Jesus’ return for centuries—even the apostles believed it would happen in their lifetimes. This waiting can seem like a “boy who cried wolf” situation, especially in our world of instant gratification. But God’s timing isn’t based on human impatience. Just as Israel grew impatient waiting for Moses in Exodus, we’re tempted to doubt. However, the Bible tells us to stay alert. We see signs that align with what Jesus told us to watch for, and as believers, we’re called to stay ready, knowing His return can happen at any moment.
No, Christians didn’t replace the Jews. Jesus’ ministry was focused on the Jewish people, calling them back to God. When they rejected Him, salvation was extended to non-Jews through Paul’s ministry. Christians are grafted into God’s family, but God’s promises to Israel still stand. The fact that Israel was restored as a nation in 1948 and continues to face global opposition today is evidence of God’s protection. The Bible predicted that in the last days, Israel would return to their land and the world would oppose them—just as we see with ongoing protests against Israel. This shows God’s continued plan for His chosen people and the key role Israel plays in end-times prophecy.
Christians don’t hate members of the LGBTQ community. In fact, we are called to love all people. However, the Bible is clear that LGBTQ lifestyles go against God’s design for humanity and are considered sinful. Romans 1:25-27 describes this as part of humanity’s fall into depravity. Christians believe that in order to be saved, we must repent—meaning to turn away from sin, including sexual sin. Our desire is to see everyone experience God’s love and redemption by embracing His truth.
First, our hearts are bursting for joy that you want to make this decision! The process is really, really simple.
1st – acknowledge that you have sinned against God. You have not followed his laws to his standards.
2nd – commit to turn away and hate the sins of your past and all sins from this point forward.
(Jesus’ blood washes away all your sin, it doesn’t stop us from sinning. You have to hate sins and make decisions not to sin)
3rd – Tell God through a prayer that you are sorry for not keeping his commands to his standards. Thank him for sending his son, Jesus Christ, to die in
in your place to cover your sins for all time.
That’s it! You can now count yourself as a Christian. You should follow the next steps as well, because I promise, the world and the enemies of God are not going to be happy that you have made this decision.
4th – Find a local group of believers to share this great news with! Tell them you want to follow Jesus’ command to be baptized to symbolize your change.
5th – Continue to study and ask God to reveal deeper and deeper truths to you through his Word.
6th – Share your new faith with others! You should be excited about being restored to God and securing your home in Heaven with God and his Son!
We are told to gather together in the Bible. This is for a few reasons, but mostly because the temptations and lies of the Devil can be especially difficult to navigate on your own. You will want someone to ask questions and advice!
