If Jesus is truly God, how could He die on the cross? In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, Catholic Answers apologists respond to major Islamic objections to the divinity, humanity, and crucifixion of Christ. They explain how Jesus could experience hunger, exhaustion, temptation, and limitations in knowledge while remaining fully divine, and address whether it was unjust for the innocent Christ to suffer for the sins of others. The discussion also examines the Islamic claim that Jesus was not actually crucified, whether the “prophet like Moses” in Deuteronomy 18 refers to Muhammad rather than Jesus, and whether Jesus’ promise of the Paraclete predicts Muhammad. Finally, they address the claim that Muhammad could be identified as the Son of Man.

What do Muslims believe about the Christian understanding of God, and how can Catholics respond to Islamic objections to the Trinity and the divinity of Christ? In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, Catholic Answers apologists examine where Jesus reveals the Trinity in Scripture and why He never simply says, “I am God; worship me.” The discussion explores the “Islamic Dilemma,” including how biblical manuscripts that predate Islam challenge the claim that Christians corrupted Scripture. They also address difficult passages about Jesus’ divinity, including His statement that “the Father is greater than I,” and explain how Jesus can be God while also referring to the Father as His God.

Do people become angels when they die, or do human beings remain fundamentally different from angels for eternity? In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, Catholic Answers apologists tackle some of the biggest questions about Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory. They discuss whether we will eat, sleep, work, have hobbies, or experience romantic relationships in Heaven, what the beatific vision will be like, and whether there are different degrees of heavenly glory. The conversation also explores whether someone in Heaven could ever sin again, how a loving God can allow anyone to go to Hell, why Hell is eternal, and whether a single mortal sin can lead to damnation. Finally, they address predestination and explain why Purgatory is necessary if Jesus has already paid for our sins.
