Question: I must press you to tell me, how the blood of Jesus is not “God blood.” If He is fully God and fully man, then how could the blood generated by such a union be limited to only one half of it?

Question: In the December '09 article you stated, "Shortly after the birth of Jesus, about A.D. 7...

Question: If a Roman Catholic believes wholeheartedly in the Lord Jesus Christ and is committed to serving Him as his Lord...how come he is not saved?
