2015-01-28 		Jesus was conceived with immortality: Jesus was immortal, no death in Him. He wasn't capable of sinning, apparently. A caller has all kinds of ideas about Jesus while a Man.

2015-01-28 		Mary's Conception: Was Jesus any part of Mary? Did God just use Mary's womb as an incubator?
Jesus as a Child: Was Jesus aware of who He was when He was a kid (younger than 12)?

2015-01-13 		Jesus giving up Deity: Jesus was 100% God & 100% man, but didn't He divest Himself of His Deity?

2014-10-29 		Jesus having the Holy Spirit: Did Jesus really need to get baptized to receive the Holy Spirit because wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that He had the Holy Spirit in Him all the time, especially since it says John the Baptist had the Holy Spirit in him from birth? [Luke 1:15, Matthew 3:16]

2014-10-10 		Impeccability of Jesus: God the Father couldn't have sinned, but could Jesus have?
Holy Spirit & the Spiritual Man: So then if the spiritual nature has the Holy Spirit & is close to God, he also won't sin, isn't that right? (a little bit convoluted question.)

2014-09-11 		Word equals Law: Caller has a friend who thinks the word, "Word" in John 1 is actually supposed to be referring to the "Law". What do you think? [John 1:1]
Pagan Days in contrast to Jewish Feast Days: Caller's friend is really against pagan holidays but thinks we need to keep the Jewish Feast days.

2014-09-11 		Jesus' Course of Action (not following the expected program): Mary, the Mother of Jesus, knew immediately that it was God telling her that she got to have the privilege of having the Son of God & it must've been quite a miraculous experience, but during His ministry, she questioned if He was okay or not, wanting to take Him home. Why would she wonder that after she knew what knew? John the Baptist also wondered if He was the One or not during his suffering, even though he also had known. [Mark 3:20-33, Matthew 12:43-50, Luke 7:20]

2014-07-23 		Sabbath: If Jesus had broken the law, His mission as Saviour would've failed so He only broke man's added laws to it, according to this listener. [Matthew 12:1-8, John 5:18]

Self-interpretation of the Bible: Isn't it sort've scary to have self-interpretation of the Bible since you can be learning about the wrong Jesus? Isn't the Church a pillar of the truth? [2 Peter 1:20]
Being anathematized & not using Study Bibles: Martin Luther was anathematized because he left the church, & you say we shouldn't be using Study Guide Bibles.

2014-06-24 		Giving Jesus Honor: I've been telling JWs that we aren't supposed to give too little honor to Jesus, but they are going around door-to-door saying we shouldn't give too much honor to Him. Do you think that's a good argument? [John 5:23]

2014-06-02 		Jesus being born today: Listener isn't sure if she'd believe in Christianity if Jesus was born in this day & age. Immaculate Conception, Son of God, a Savior, Atonement, Resurrection, it all sounds crazy to her, & if she wouldn't believe that it happened today if it did, why would she believe it happened 2,000 years ago either?

2014-05-28 		Jesus Breaking the Sabbath: Caller doesn't think John says that Jesus actually broke the Sabbath, that it was just their (the Pharisees) perspective that He did. [John 5:18, Matthew 12:1-8]
Jesus Healing a blind man on Sabbath: Why did they accuse Him of working on the Sabbath for spitting dirt in the mud & healing a blind man? They were accusing of Him breaking it, too, weren't they? [John 9]

2014-05-22 		Divinity of Christ pre-Baptism: Is it probably true that Jesus was not fully knowledgeable of who His ministry until after His baptism? [Luke 2:41-52, Matthew 3:13-17]

2014-05-20 		Jesus Son of God but not Deity: How can someone be a Christian if you acknowledge that Jesus is the Son of God but not Deity?
Believing "in" or Believing "Upon" Jesus: Is there a distinction between believing IN Jesus or believing upon Him?

2014-05-13 		Essentials of Christianity: I called the other day & asked what the Essentials of Christianity, How come you didn't say one of them was that Jesus was God?
Fellowshipping & Jesus the Son of God: How do you fellowship w/ people who don't think that Jesus is the Son of God? or what if people don't think He came down here in the flesh?

2014-05-07 		Impeccability of Jesus: Caller says that Steve almost sounds like an SDA, saying that Jesus could've sinned.
1,000 Years: You are negating the words of Jesus when you say He didn't say it was a literal 1,000 years! That's why Michael the Buddhist never hears Jesus from you, so says the caller. [Revelation 6:1-10]

2014-05-07 		Coinherence - Impeccability of Christ: Did Jesus really have Free WIll to go against what the Father wanted Him to do? He must've because otherwise how could it be that "He loved the Father"?

2014-04-11 		Divinity of Christ, Monotheism & Dennis Prager: My father-in-law is a very intelligent man, but he doesn't believe in the Divinity of Jesus, but he believes in God & he gets a lot of his information from a Dennis Prager.

2014-03-05 		God's Sovereignty: Why does God have complete control or authority over us?
Witnessing to Atheists: How do explain the God of the Old Testament to atheists who think He was an angry God as Richard Dawkins believes? Where is the starting point to engage w/ Atheists, such as Jesus being the Son of God?

2014-02-20 		Holy Spirit - Like a Dove: When it says that the Holy Spirit came upon Jesus LIKE a dove, does that mean in the manner in which He did it & not so much it being an actual dove? [Matthew 3:16-17, Luke 3:22]

2014-01-02 		Jesus' Lordship & Authority: When did Jesus receive His Lordship & Authority? After His death & resurrection? [Philippians 2:7-8]

2013-09-06 		Jesus Never Claimed to be God: Jesus was the second "Adam", wasn't He? Was He the example of what Adam should've been, yet also came down here to die for our sins?
Jesus the "God Man": So wouldn't it be accurate to call Jesus, the "God Man"?

2013-09-05 		Financially Supporting the Rape Victim: Isn't the reason God permitted the victim to be married by the attacker is to financially support her since she'd have no other means?
Stoning Jesus because He Claimed to be God: Caller was trying to help a previous caller to explain that Jesus claimed to be God is why the Pharisees wanted to stone Him. [John 8:24]

2013-09-05 		Trinity & Being a Christian or not: Caller said that the reason people don't think he's a Christian is because he doesn't believe in the Trinity. Can he still be a Christian even though he doesn't believe Jesus is God but only the Son of God?

Praying to "Jesus" Rather than "God": Regarding praying to "Jesus" rather than "God", don't you think that His sitting at "the right hand of the Father" as indication of authority rather than literal?

Jesus as God: Is Jesus God? If so, what is the connection between Him and God? Was He praying to Himself? [Genesis 1:1].

2013-04-23 		Early Believers Worshipping Jesus: Since people didn't really understand that Jesus was God at first, but worshipped Him, anyway, should not have Jesus corrected their thinking? [Acts 10:25, Revelation 19:9-10, Revelation 22:8].
