What are the implications of the New Testament claim that Jesus was "born under law"?

What are the implications of the New Testament claim that Jesus was "born under law"? Let's find out. Answer: In Galatians 4:4 Paul claims that "God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under law." If we presume a birth without a man's assistance, we still have the problem that Jesus was not born in accordance with the Law.

Should all Christianity be Condemned because a few did Horrific Acts?

According to the New Testament, should all of Christianity be condemned because some that profess to be Christians have perpetrated horrific crimes in the name of Jesus? Answer: Matthew's Jesus declares: "Beware of the false prophets who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits.

Is it true that the New Testament criticism of the Jews is quite mild?

Is it true that the New Testament criticism of the Jews is quite mild? Let's find out. Answer: The New Testament contains more than just a mild criticism of the Jews. In fact, it is extremely anti-Jewish. It is true that some Christians maintain that the New Testament attack on the Jews is quite mild.

Were the New Testament authors contriving anti-Jewish episodes or simply stating historical fact?

Were the New Testament authors contriving anti-Jewish episodes or simply stating historical fact? Did they distort even factual events so as to blame the Jews? Let's find out.

Does suffering and dying for something make it true?

Does suffering and dying for something make it true?

It seems logical to say that no one would be willing to suffer and even die for something they knew wasn't true. According to the New Testament, the disciples were persecuted for proclaiming that Jesus was resurrected. Therefore, isn't it logical to say that the New Testament information has to be true? Answer: The willingness of an individual to suffer and die for a particular cause or belief doesn't prove its truthfulness or validity. For example, the willingness of the leadership of the ea
