Jesus, Our Sacrifice
- Why didn't God make forgiveness cost us something like through payment of a certain amount into His "storehouse"? Would that discourage repetition of sins?
- How much did sacrifice of animals in the Old Testament accomplish to deter from sin?
- What is the difference between redemption and forgiveness?
The Passion of Christ
- How is it possible for God to suffer? Doesn't omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence put God above pain and above stress?
- Why do humans for whom Jesus suffered also have to suffer? Why can't they be spared all suffering?
- What does it mean to "follow in His steps?"
The Resurrection of Jesus
- What indications are there, if any, that God would have been willing to forgo resurrection, if that is what it would have taken, in order to save humanity?
- Are Adventists wrong in shunning the celebration of Easter?
- How much better is resurrection of the body than immortality of the soul taught by some Christians or the transmigration of the soul taught by eastern religions?
Jesus as the Messiah
- How much credit should Peter get when in response to Jesus' question asking who they thought He was, he stated that Jesus was the Messiah? Was that his studied opinion, or did he blurt it out as he often did?
- How much did the other disciples comprehend of who Jesus was? Why was there so little application of the messianic prophecies to Jesus before he died on the cross?
- How common would miracle workers have been in Israel? Why did Jesus' many miracles not convince people that He was the messiah?
Jesus the Divine Messiah
- Could there be such a thing as a human messiah?
- Is it wrong to call any human "Lord?"
- Why is there debate on the Godhead as "trinity?" How clear is the Bible on this doctrine?
