- Do we believe Jesus is the Messiah? If so, Christians' faiths are confirmed. If not, people are living their lives believing a lie.
- Christianity should grow as people should respond to what the Bible is saying about salvation and the need to repent, increasing faith and showing Christianity to have the truth.
- If there is life after death, Jesus prepares people for their new life in the New Heaven and New Earth which gives their current lives meaning and purpose, making them likely to live in God's image to work towards this.
