Christian, tell me why do you keep saying that people are all sinners? Sure, there are plenty of sins, but not everyone commits them.

Christian, tell me why do you keep saying that people are all sinners? Sure, there are plenty of sins, but not everyone commits them.
Christian, tell me why do you appropriate all of the Old Testament promises to Israel as applying to you also? You’re not Jewish!
Christian, tell me why are you so judgmental? Doesn’t the Bible tell you not to judge others?
Christian, tell me why do you think it’s important that God became man? That’s an old fairy tale: The gods in mythology became human all the time.
Christian, tell me why do you talk about the “fear of God”? Why do you worship if you’re afraid of him?
Christian, tell me why do you think that many people reject Christianity?
Christian, tell me why do people hate the Jews so much? What is your explanation of the causes of anti-Semitism?
Christian, tell me why do you insist that your truth is better than mine?
Christian, tell me why are you so sure that you are going to Heaven? What makes you think that you are good enough to be right with God?
Christian, tell me why do you refer to Jesus as your “Savior” and ask people whether they are “saved”? Saved from what?
Christian, tell me why do you talk about “atonement”? That’s an awfully church-y word. What does it mean?
Christian, tell me why do you expect anyone to have blind faith in something they can’t see? Why follow a fairy tale?
Christian, tell me why are you such an intolerant prude about sex? Why can’t you let people do what they choose with their own bodies?
Christian, tell me why do you say that people are created “in the image of God”?
Christian, tell me why do you talk about “redemption” or “being redeemed” or Jesus as your “Redeemer”? What do you mean by the word “redeem”?
Christian, tell me why do you believe that God exists? Don’t quote the Bible; give real evidence.
Christian, tell me why do you talk about all of those “End Times” topics? What do you mean by “Rapture”, “Tribulation”, or “Millenium”? What makes you think such things are real, or matter in the real world?
Christian, tell me why was it so bad for Adam and Eve to eat a piece of fruit? It hardly seems to warrant getting kicked out and sentenced to death!
Christian, tell me why do you believe that your view of things is better than anyone else’s?
Christian, tell me why do you say that the Jews are “chosen” by God? What makes them so special? Why are they always at the center of so much conflict?
Christian, tell me why do you say that non-Christians are “lost”?
Christian, tell me why are wives supposed to submit or “be subject” to their husbands? Why aren’t they equal?
Christian, tell me why you are so insistent on Jesus as the only answer? There is always more than one route to a destination!
Christian, tell me why some sins are worse than others, but you say that God forgives them all?
Christian, tell me why a “good” God allows so many bad things to happen?
I have always found it easier to accept God’s infinite power than His infinite love. Power is obvious in Creation. But love? That seems too good to be true, but the Bible insists that it IS true. This prayer is my response of praise to Him.
Christian, tell me why you refer to “Father, Son, and Holy Spirit”, yet still say that there is only one God? Why do you say that Jesus is the Son of God, but you also say that He is God Himself? Why don’t you make up your mind?!
Christian, tell me why do you think that everyone is “infinitely valuable”? Some contribute much more to the world than others!
Christian, tell me why you say that everyone is “individually responsible”? Some have lots of advantages, while others are very dis-advantaged.
Christian, tell me why do you believe in the resurrection? Why do you accept such an un-natural event as an historical fact?

In fact, God loves you SO much that Jesus Christ, God Himself, died for you.
He’s waiting eagerly for you to accept His free gift of life with Him.
But He won’t force you; it’s your decision to make.
What is your choice?
