When I was Muslim, I used to ask Christians:
“If Jesus was really God, why did He eat, sleep, and bleed like us?”
And honestly, I used to ask it with pride like it was some unbeatable argument.
But later I realized something:
That question was not exposing Christianity.
It was exposing my misunderstanding of what kind of God Jesus claimed to be.
Because the real question is not:
“Why would God become weak?”
The real question is:
“What kind of God would willingly step into human suffering at all?”
Islam taught me about a God who was distant and untouchable.
But Christianity introduced me to a God who stepped into hunger, exhaustion, grief, pain, betrayal, blood, and suffering with us.
And suddenly His humanity stopped feeling like weakness to me.
It became proof of love.
If Jesus ate, it means He came close enough to experience hunger beside us.
If He slept, it means He embraced the exhaustion we carry.
If He bled, it means He did not stand above suffering watching us from a distance.
He entered it Himself.
Philippians 2 says Christ emptied Himself and took on flesh.
Not because He stopped being God, but because He wanted humanity to finally see what God is actually like.
And it turns out God is willing to suffer for the people He loves.
That changed everything for me.
Because every other religion demanded sacrifice from humanity.
Jesus became the sacrifice Himself.
And no prophet in history ever claimed that.
Cowboys 1st-round pick Caleb Downs walk-up song at the NFL Draft was Christian song “King of Glory” by CeCe Winans
“Yes the world
Will bow down and say You are God
Every man
Will bow down and say You are King”
Proud to see so many top picks giving glory, honor & praise to Jesus
People who don't believe that evil exists should never be put into positions of power.
Not everything wicked that humans do is the result of 'mental health' or 'bad upbringing'.
If you don't understand that, you shouldn't even be voting.
Congratulations to Head Coach DeMeco Ryans, and the @HoustonTexans, for winning their spot in the playoffs last weekend. Coach Ryans gave God the glory for his team's success and talked about their belief in Jesus Christ. He told the media, “I’m so proud of our guys and thankful to the Lord for allowing us to allow our lights to shine through Him. All praise and honor goes to Him.” It’s always so encouraging to see leaders like Coach Ryan who are pointing their teams to the Lord and giving Him the glory. God bless him. @DRyans59
