These objections with answers are meant to be short, possible responses to various objections unbelievers raise for not being a Christian. They are not meant to be exhaustively analyzed or "the" answers to the objections raised. Carm has plenty of articles where we...
Lazarus was not resurrected in his glorified body. He was simply resurrected. Jesus was the firstfruits of the resurrection (1 Cor. 15:20, 23; Col. 1:18; Rev. 1:5) - meaning he was the first raised in a glorified body (1 Cor. 15:42-44). Jesus retained the...
It matters if Jesus died for us because it is only through the sacrificial death of Christ that we can be saved from the righteous judgment of God the Father. Our sin is rebellion against God. It is lawlessness (1 John 3:4). The consequence of sin is separation from...

I am not a sinner. Are you saying you are perfect? If you are, then you're the first perfect person I've ever met who has never sinned. Are you saying you've never broken the Law of God? Have you ever lied, cheated, or stolen? If you have, then you are a sinner...
One of the most nagging questions in Christianity is whether or not baptism is necessary for salvation. The answer is simple: "No, water baptism is not necessary for salvation." But you might ask, "If the answer is no, then why are there verses that say things like...
