Person of Christ Questions

This page is a listing of various questions on the person of Christ with links to the answers. Just click on the Question.

QUESTION 1:
When Christ died on the cross He cried, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me"- Matthew 27:46. Did He not know why He was there? Why did God forsake Him.?

QUESTION 2:
Could Jesus have sinned and if He couldn't how could He be tempted?

QUESTION 3:
Is Jesus Christ the Jehovah of the Old Testament?

QUESTION 4:
What does it mean in Philippians 2:7, where we read "made Himself of no reputation?"

QUESTION 5:
The intellectuals of this world tells us it is just impossible that Christ was born of a virgin. How could this be?

QUESTION 6:
I was recently reading Matthew 9:8, and it created some confusion for me. Matthew 9:1-8 describes Jesus healing a paralytic. I am curious about Matthew 9:8, where the NIV says, "When the crowd saw this, they were filled with awe; and they praised God, who had given such authority to men." Jesus performed the healing but Matthew 1:8 discusses the "authority" being given to men. Why does it say this if Jesus is divine?

QUESTION 7:
How could Jesus be tempted and not be able to sin? Could He have sinned? It seems to me His temptation would be meaningless if He could not sin.

QUESTION 8:
Since Jesus Christ was a true human being could He have sinned?

QUESTION 9:
I have been told that Jesus did not bodily rise from the dead, but only arose in spirit form. 1 Peter 3:18 is a verse I have been given. Is this true?

QUESTION 10:
Was Christ's resurrection on the Sabbath, and would that be on Saturday? Is it a pagan custom to celebrate Christ's resurrection on Sunday?

QUESTION 11:
What does it mean in Revelation 1:18, where Jesus is said to have the keys to hell and death?

QUESTION 12:
Was Jesus' resurrection spiritual and not physical as claimed by the Watchtower Society?

QUESTION 13:
Does the Bible teach that God repents?

QUESTION 14:
The trinitarian concept of God is that He is a multi-personal God -- God manifested in 3 persons. Since God is not a man, Numbers 23:19, how do you discuss with someone who does not believe the Trinity.

QUESTION 15: I have been reading in Ezekiel and do not understand why GOD refers to Ezekiel as the son of man, I thought that was a title reserved to the Lord Jesus Christ. Can you help?
