Questions About Jesus

Welcome to our Questions About Jesus page. This section brings together clear Christian answers to some of the most important questions people ask about Jesus Christ. Who is Jesus? What did he claim? Why did he come? Why did he die? Did he really rise again? Why does he still matter? These are not small religious questions. They are central questions of truth, history, salvation, and eternal life.

Many people know the name of Jesus, but far fewer understand who he actually claimed to be. Some see him as a teacher. Some see him as a prophet. Some reduce him to a moral example. But the Bible presents Jesus in a far greater way. He is the Son of God, the promised Messiah, the Savior of the world, and the risen Lord. That is why questions about Jesus matter so much. If Jesus is who he claimed to be, then no human life can remain unchanged by him.

This page is designed to help readers explore the identity, words, works, death, Resurrection, and kingship of Jesus in plain language. Some visitors may be believers wanting clearer answers. Others may be skeptics, doubters, or seekers trying to understand what Christianity actually says about Christ. In either case, this section aims to explain the truth faithfully and clearly.

Start here

If you are new to this section, begin with a few key questions that help explain who Jesus is and why he matters.

Did Jesus Really Exist? 

  • A foundational question for anyone asking whether Jesus belongs to history or legend.

Is There Historical Proof That Jesus Existed? Deny Him, Deny the History Around Him. 

  • You cannot remove Jesus from history without cutting into the world around Him. Where exactly do you cut Him out?

What Were the Last Words of Jesus Before He Ascended? 

  • A helpful question for understanding the mission Jesus gave to his followers.

Where Did Jesus Go After the Ascension? 

  • A clear follow-up question that explains the Ascension and heavenly reign of Christ.

Why Is Jesus Called Christ the King? 

  • A strong question that brings together prophecy, identity, and the authority of Christ.

What you will find here

This section includes posts on:

  • Who Jesus is
  • What Jesus taught
  • What Jesus claimed about himself
  • Why Jesus died on the cross
  • The Resurrection of Jesus
  • The Ascension of Jesus
  • The kingship and return of Christ
  • Common objections and misunderstandings about Jesus

Jesus is not a side subject in Christianity. He is the center of it. Christianity is not built on a moral code, a vague spirituality, or a list of human opinions. It is built on the person of Jesus Christ. That is why questions about Jesus are so important. To misunderstand him is to misunderstand the Christian faith itself.

What Happened on Holy Thursday? Meaning of the Last Supper Explained

Holy Thursday, also called Maundy Thursday, begins the most solemn part of Holy Week. Many people ask what happened on Holy Thursday and why it matters. This day remembers the Last Supper, the institution of the Eucharist, the washing of the disciples’ feet, the command to love one another, and the agony of Jesus in Gethsemane. At the Last Supper, Jesus took bread and wine and gave them to His disciples as His body and blood. This was not just a farewell meal. It became central to Christian worship and pointed directly to the sacrifice that would take place on Good Friday. Holy Thursday therefore cannot be separated from the cross. Another key event is the washing of the disciples’ feet. Jesus, their Lord and Teacher, took the place of a servant. This act showed that true greatness is not found in status or power, but in humble service. He did not merely teach humility. He demonstrated it. Jesus also gave a new commandment, to love one another as He had loved them. This love is not sha...

When Is Pentecost 2026 and Why Does the Date of Pentecost Change Every Year?

Pentecost in 2026 will be observed on Sunday, May 24. Many people ask why the date of Pentecost changes each year and how it is determined. The answer is directly connected to Easter, which is explained in Why Does the Date of Easter Change Every Year? Pentecost always occurs fifty days after Easter Sunday. This is why its date changes every year. Since Easter itself does not have a fixed date and is based on the lunar calendar, Pentecost also moves each year. Easter is calculated as the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox. Once the date of Easter is known, Pentecost is simply counted forward by fifty days. This places Pentecost on a Sunday, seven weeks after Easter. The name “Pentecost” comes from a Greek word meaning “fiftieth,” reflecting this exact timing. In the Bible, Pentecost was originally a Jewish feast known as the Feast of Weeks, as explained in the post What Is the Feast of Weeks in the Bible?  It was celebrated fifty days after Passover...

Jesus called his mother "woman" on two distinct occasions. The first instance occurred during the wedding at Cana (John 2:4), and the second was at the crucifixion (John 19:26). For centuries, believers have been intrigued by the manner in which Jesus addressed his mother, Mary, by calling her "woman".  In each instance, the term "woman" underscores the broader spiritual themes surrounding Mary's role and relationship with her son. To appreciate the full significance behind Jesus calling his mother "woman", we need to consider its cultural, theological, and symbolic implications.
