This coronavirus crisis has, for me, some perplexing parallels with a well-known incident narrated in the Gospel of Matthew (14:22-33). The disciples are confined in a little boat in the middle of a terrible storm, almost as we are confined at home today by the emergency laws of our countries.

Forgiveness is the central idea in Christianity that sets it apart from other religions.

The story of Jesus's first coming to earth is remarkable, not only because it was foretold thousands of years in advance, but also because the prophesied details of His passion and death were exactly fulfilled.

Are there errors in the Bible? If so, what kind of errors and how do they affect its inspired character? Are there contradictions between the authors of the Bible? How are these explained?

Are there subjects that even Holy Scripture does not fully explain? If so, why does God allow this?

From the speech of Jesus, who was a perfect speaker, we would expect there to be no fiery insults or harsh terms.
