Christian, tell me why did Jesus say that His listeners would see the end of time? Obviously, they didn’t! Did He lie, or was He wrong?

Christian, tell me why did Jesus curse an innocent fig tree just for not having fruit when it wasn’t in season? That seems like a petty tantrum!

Christian, tell me why do you bother to pray? Think of all the times that you haven’t been answered, like when you ask for healing but the person dies anyway. What happened to “Ask, and you shall receive”?

Christian, tell me why did Jesus talk about throwing “pearls before swine”? What are the pearls, and who are the swine?

Christian, tell me why do you say that you were predestined to be one of the elect, special chosen ones? That seems awfully arrogant. It also makes it seem like no one has a real choice whether to become a
Christian or not.

Christian, tell me why do you say that you are “called”? Called what?

Christian, tell me why do you tell scare stories about Hell? I don’t appreciate being manipulated into buying your “fire insurance”!

Christian, tell me why do you look forward to Heaven, anyway? I’m not particularly interested in living in the clouds, playing a harp, or sitting in an endless church service singing worship songs forever.

Christian, tell me why do you believe that anything about us persists after we die?

Christian, tell me why do you believe that demons exist? How are they relevant to our lives today?

Christian, tell me why do you believe that angels exist? How are they relevant to our lives today?

Christian, tell me why do you say that you are “in Christ”? What does that mean?
