HONEST QUESTIONS. BIBLE ANSWERS.

What is true
about Jesus?

No hidden knowledge. No human prophet replacing Christ. No salvation earned by religion. Open the Bible and meet Jesus Christ—the crucified and risen Lord.

“You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
JESUS — JOHN 8:32

THE GOSPEL IN FOUR TRUTHS

Good news begins with the truth.

01

God is holy

He created us for His glory and is perfectly righteous, loving, and worthy of our worship.

Isaiah 6:3 · Revelation 4:11
02

We have sinned

Every person has rebelled against God. Sin separates us from Him, and we cannot save ourselves.

Romans 3:23 · Romans 6:23
04

Repent and believe

Turn from sin and trust Jesus Christ alone. Salvation is a gift of grace, not a reward for good works.

Mark 1:15 · Ephesians 2:8–9

01Is Jesus really God?

Yes. Jesus is not a created angel, merely a prophet, or one god among many. The Bible says the eternal Word “was God” and “became flesh.” Jesus received worship, forgave sins, called Himself “I AM,” and was confessed as “My Lord and my God.” All the fullness of deity dwells bodily in Him.

John 1:1–3, 14 · John 8:58 · John 20:28 · Colossians 2:9

02Why is Jesus the only way to God?

Because only Jesus is the sinless Son of God who took the judgment for sinners and conquered death. No other teacher, prophet, religion, or spiritual system did this. Jesus did not say He was one possible way; He said, “I am the way.” Salvation is found in no one else.

John 14:6 · Acts 4:12 · 1 Timothy 2:5–6

03Why did Jesus have to die?

God is loving, but He is also just and cannot pretend sin does not matter. At the cross, Jesus willingly stood in the place of sinners. He bore our punishment so God could remain just while declaring believers righteous. The cross displays both the seriousness of sin and the greatness of God’s love.

Isaiah 53:5–6 · Romans 3:25–26 · 2 Corinthians 5:21

04How can I be saved?

Repent and believe the Gospel. Turn from sin, self-rule, and every false hope, and trust Jesus Christ alone as Lord and Savior. You are not saved by repeating magical words; you are saved by Jesus when you truly come to Him in faith. He promises not to cast out anyone who comes.

Mark 1:15 · John 6:37 · Romans 10:9–13

05What does “born again” mean?

It means receiving new spiritual life from God. Christianity is not merely improving your old life or joining an institution. The Holy Spirit makes the believer alive, gives a new heart, and begins transforming the person to love God and obey Him.

John 3:3–8 · Ezekiel 36:26–27 · 2 Corinthians 5:17

06Can good works earn salvation?

No. Even our best works cannot erase guilt or make God owe us eternal life. Salvation is by grace through faith, “not a result of works.” Good works follow salvation as its fruit; they are never its price. We obey because Christ saved us—not to force Him to save us.

Ephesians 2:8–10 · Titus 3:5 · Romans 4:4–5

07How can I know that I am saved?

Your confidence rests first in Jesus and His promise, not in the strength of your feelings. Ask: Am I trusting the biblical Jesus alone? Do I believe His Gospel? Is there a growing desire to turn from sin, obey His Word, and love His people? These do not purchase salvation; they are signs of God’s new life.

John 5:24 · 1 John 5:11–13 · 1 John 2:3–6

08Does every group that says “Jesus” teach the true Jesus?

No. A name alone does not make a message biblical. Scripture warns about “another Jesus” and “a different gospel.” Mormon teaching, Jehovah’s Witness teaching, Scientology, and other systems that deny the eternal deity of Christ, change the Gospel, add new controlling revelation, or replace grace with their organization do not present the biblical Gospel. Test every teacher by Scripture.

2 Corinthians 11:4 · Galatians 1:6–9 · 1 John 4:1–3

09What happens after death?

Death is not the end. Every person will face God’s judgment. Those who belong to Christ will be raised to eternal life with Him; those who reject Him remain under judgment. This is why the Gospel is urgent and why God commands people everywhere to repent today.

Hebrews 9:27 · John 5:28–29 · Acts 17:30–31

10How do I begin following Jesus today?

Come to Jesus in repentance and faith. Speak honestly with Him. Begin reading the Gospel of John, pray daily, turn away from known sin, seek baptism, and join a faithful Bible-teaching church. Do not follow Jesus alone—walk with believers who will help you grow.

Luke 9:23 · Acts 2:38–42 · Hebrews 10:24–25
