I just don't get it . I dont get the whole idea of jesus .I have a lot of questions and doubts.
First : if jesus is dead then how come we still pray to him?
Second:If Jesus is capable to help us here how come he wasnt capable to help him self when he was on the crossed?
Third:why has the bibble changed every now and then by our leaders? notice,in ten years it will change it will be like " gays WERE born that way".
Fourth : why god didnt help his son when he was on the crossed?
fiveth: why god sent his son why didnt he send his daughter?
you know what i think ? i think that we were born to believe the bibble and its storied without even questioning it .i was raised christian untill at some point i stopped being one.you know im not muslim but some muslim said something very interesting
he said" in order to you to believe christians you need to have wild imagination, but all what you need are your brain and commen sesne when it comes to Islam"
why would god want a son in?

The problem with the Bible is that it hasn't changed enough.

1) Jesus rose from the dead, ascended into Heaven, and He lives and prays for us continuously before His Father's throne. And, He will be coming back soon to judge all and set up a new heavens and a new earth. So, I think it would be to your best interest to pray to Him, and ask Him to save you from your sin, so that you aren't judged and condemned by God.
2) It was God's predetermined plan to send His Son, Jesus to live a perfect human life, and then die to pay the penalty for our sins, which is death. It wasn't a mistake. In fact this "tragedy" was the best thing that could ever happen for us, right, if indeed He did pay the penalty for our sins? And, no, the Muslims, are wrong when they say that Jesus (or their Isa) escaped from the cross. Prophecy from the Old Testament makes it clear that Jesus would in fact fulfill His mission by being the perfect sacrifice, the Lamb of God, for our sin (Psalm 22, Isaiah 53), and that He would be raised from the dead (Psalms 16:8-11), and rule over all the universe with His Father (Psalms 110:1-2), and then return again (Zechariah 12).
3) Who told you the Bible continues to change? Muslims believe that it is great error. Strange, it's Muhammed in the Koran that's has interpreted the Bible wrongly. What does a man who lived 600 years after the last book of the Bible was written have anything to say about what's right and wrong about it? It's God's Word, and it not will never change, but it will last forever, even when the Universe is no more!
4) He did, but not like how the world, nor Satan for that matter, would expect Him to help His only Son. Like I said, both agreed before Jesus even came to earth that He should die as the perfect sacrifice for our sins. After that was accomplished, His Father raised Him from the dead. It was both their plan and purpose to have Jesus Christ do so. If He didn't, all those who trust in Him would still be in their sins, condemned and on their way to paying the penalty for their sins, living in Hell. This is the status for all those who still don't believe in Him as Lord God and Savior.
5) Because God is the creator, initiator and sustainer of all things. These are masculine characteristics, so God is seen as our Father, and since His Son is also God, Who was in beginning with Him, creating the universe (John 1, Colossians 1:10-16) he also takes on the masculine, and became a male child born via the virgin Mary.
No, it makes much sense when you know that you are powerless from saving yourself from the judgement to come, being sinful as all humanity is. There needed to be a Savior, Who would have to be God Himself. Noone else can save us. All other religions don't make sense because they don't have the answer to this sad plight of ours. Our works, as in the Muslim faith, will not help us, since even they are corrupt in God's sight.

You spelled "common" wrong...
First: If Jesus was alive, why would we have to pray to him? We could just go over and tell him... now if someone is dead, and if this person died for our sins, and this person is more than mere man and is actually a spirtual savior... well that's different...
Second: Obviously, you don't know WHY Jesus died on the cross. He endured that pain and suffering for us, because if he didn't he knew that we would never be saved.
Third: The Bible has never changed. Religions do. And it will never say gays were born that way. In case you haven't noticed the Bible STILL says repeatedly homosexuality is wrong.
Fourth: God SENT His son FOR US to die on the cross. (It's not "crossed" btw, it's "cross")
Fifth: Because He didn't have a daughter... come on.
I don't believe you were raised Christian, and if you were, obviously, no one ever told you ANYTHING about Jesus Christ.

Jesus died when He was here as human. He conquered the death. He is alive.
He fulfilled the Bible prophecy, He was able to help Himself but He did what He came to do.
Jesus confirmed the OT and it is the same as it was in the time of Jesus. He promised the New Testament. He protects His Word. We have very reliable characters who put the Bible together. The Word of God is the same in the past, present and future.
Jesus is God. He did what He promised. He died so that you can have eternal life with Him if you accept His offer.
Because of the Bible promises.
Jesus is Savior. No other belief system offer Savior.

1- Christ rose on the third day- he is not dead
2- he was fully capable but chose not to because his sacrifice on the cross was the only way to save humans from their own sin
3-the bible has not been changed- (mormons change the bible to fit the times- Christians believe the bible is forever relevant and does not need change)
4- because the trinity of God decided before the world was created that a perfect sacrifice would be needed to save humanity and Christ agreed to submit and give himself by taking up our sin on the cross
5- because he didnt have a daughter- he had a one and only son

LOOK up cognitive bias on wikipedia
i hate to tell you but the islam dude is stupid, and i wouldnt listen to him if i were you.
the bible has changed ALOT of times, because as people and times changed, the bible needed to too. Then look at the king james version, he had it changed so his peasants wouldnt revolt against him, or something like that.
"god" would have sent his son because men are who hold status, ecpecially in those times.
jesus sopposedly died for other people, which i dont get. He was supposed to clense peoples sins for ever, but then again they have things in church to undo you sins.

1.His spirit lives forever with God.
2.He needed to die for our sins to help us.
3.Political corruption.
4.It was Gods plan for him to die for our sins, Women were not regarded like men then.
Why doesn't your last question make sense, in what? Oh and if you meen why God wanted his son dead for all of are sins, We are all wicked horrid people, christians, muslims, pagans, everyone on earth. God's son, Jesus, died for all of our sins.

Many Christians who focus on the BASIC message display a GREAT DEAL of common sense.
Most of those have questioned at one time or another....

Actually I personally know as a spiritual Christian that getting to know God is the smartest thing anyone can do for themselves.
