Q.  Two robbers were crucified along with Jesus, does that mean when we wear a cross, that we worship them as well? (from Tim) A.  Many people wear crosses now, & many don't believe in Jesus. Christians who wear a cross remember that Jesus, the sinless Son of God, paid the penalty for their sin on an instrument of torture (a cross). They know the difference between the two robbers and Jesus Christ.	Q.  Why did God only give His Laws to Israel  and not everyone else? A. God had chosen the nation of Israel to be His people so that they would be responsible for preserving God's Scriptures (the Old Testament of the Bible) down through history, but God has given the basic requirements of His Law to everyone in the form of our conscience. Our conscience tells us what is wrong and right.	Q.  What is holy communion? (from Julie) A.  On the evening that Jesus was betrayed (just before He was crucified) He had a meal with His disciples (called the 'Last Supper). The bread they ate was a symbol of Jesus' body which was to be a sacrifice to God to pay for all the wrong that we do. The wine they drank was a symbol of Jesus' blood that was to be spilt the next day. Jesus' death was nasty, but He willingly gave His life so that we could be forgiven by God. Holy Communion is another name for remembering this last supper. By us sharing the bread and wine together we show that we are trusting in what Jesus did that night. By believing in what Jesus did, God will allow us to be in heaven with Him forever.
Q. What are the 10 commandments? (from Sara) A.  They are a group of commands that God has given us, which sum up (summarizes) all of His commands. The first four tell us how to behave towards God Himself, and the other six, tell us how to behave to other people. (Look at the Ten Commandments).	Q.  What are the 4 reasons why christians should be baptized? (from Sarah) A.  Because: 1) The Bible tells us to do it (Acts 2:38, etc) 2) We get pleasure from God by obeying Him. 3) Baptism is a good symbol of dying to ourselves & living to God & being washed clean by His Holy Spirit, so it helps us to understand these things better. 4) Why 4 reasons? Do you think that these 3 are enough?	Q.  What did the Roman soldiers think about Jesus  (from Mark)  A.  I expect many of them would have looked at Jesus with no feelings at all, because they were used to seeing people die. But we know that the Centurion at the cross suddenly saw Jesus differently (Mark 15:39), and I guess that there may have been one or two other soldiers who were challenged by what they saw & heard.
Q.  How old do you have to be to be a Christian? (from Katie) A.  I've known very young children who believe that Jesus is the only One who can save them, so provided they can understand that then they are old enough!	Q.  Why do we call Jesus the light?  (from Ann) A.  Our world is beautiful, but it can also be a dark and horrible place due to people's evil thoughts & actions. (Listening to the News will confirm this!) Jesus came from heaven, showing us what God is like, showing His love and teaching us how to be forgiven and how to live our lives. He and His message were like a bright, wonderful light from heaven.	Waiting for your question......
Q.  Is there any proof that Jesus existed? (from Hannah) A.  Yes, there were several historians at the time of Jesus who wrote about Him (see the historical evidence on this site).	Q. Jesus was a Jew, so how come Christians worship him?  (from Tim) A.  Jesus was born as a Jew, but His mission was not to save the Jews only. Because He is God's Son, He is relevant to all people.	Is there some thing in the Bible that you don't understand?
Q. Can you tell me the meaning of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead? (from Hazel) A.  This is a big question, so here is a link to a new page: Back from the dead.	Q.  When we've got no-one else to talk to, can we talk to God, & is that praying? (from Danny) A.  Yes, talking to God is prayer. God is always available whenever you need Him.
