Earthquakes, Sickness & Pain. How does this fit with a good God
IS CHRISTIANITY THE ONLY TRUE WAY?
Isn't doing good the same everywhere
why believe when christians fail?
Can a divided church or hypocritical Christians still point to truth
is it fair that only believers are saved?
What about good people or those who never hear
Is the 'trinity' blibical
The word isn't in the bible so why do Christians use it

How should I use the responses?
Use them as conversation starters
Adapt to your friend’s situation
Keep it relational, not confrontational
They are not a script – Anchor your thoughts, then speak in your own words
They are not debate materials – Aim for conversations, not arguments
They are not exhaustive – They provide starting points with good references, not detailed essays
