Questions About Christianity
Christianity is a big religion, and its doctrines aren't always taught very clearly or very well. This can make it hard to understand what the religion is supposed to be about, and it doesn't help when different Christian groups would rather argue with each other rather than listen to what the Bible has to say about a topic.
I'd like to try and help resolve some of these problems using a simple question and answer format. Hopefully I can clarify various things and make it easier for people to understand what Christianity is all about.

Sin and Temptation are often found together, but they are different things, and there's a very simple way to prove it.
