From unbelievers who are serious about learning about salvation?
“How do we know there really is a God?”
“How do you know God hers your prayers?”
From unbelievers who are merely pawns of Satan?
“What about all the contradictions in the Bible?”
“Did you know the Bible approves of polygamy?”
etc.
If you were accused of being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?
Excellent!

Sample question:
If you were to stand before God today and He asked you “Why should I allow you into Heaven?”, what would your answer be?
What about all the inconsistencies in the Bible?

Good read.
If there is a God, why do so many bad things happen in this world?
Of course, I’d have to confess.
Read “The God Questions” by Pastor Hal Seed.
I would avoid Evolution if I were you, IC.
It has nothing to do with Christian theology and everything to do with amateurs wanting to debate. It is a contentious subject of no value in the areas you speak of.
(courtesy ping to PC since that was the originator — this is not an invitation to reopen the TToE discussion — the OP may accept or discard my suggestion according to his/her wisdom).
Sometimes it’s good to start at the very beginning:

Good topic. Here is a question I receive regularly by young college students who lack logical skills but have a healthy desire to argue:
Q. If God created the universe, then who created the Creator? Heh, heh.
A. Whoa! No one has ever, ever, ever thought of that in five thousand years. You should get a college degree in the mail right now.
A. If everything needed a creator, then we would not be here. But we are here. Thus there is one thing that did not need a creator: God, the Unmoved Mover.
Here’s another common shot from eager students ready to argue.
Q. Who’s to say that Jesus rose from the dead?
A. Are you serious? Have you ever Googled it? Try it, you’ll like it, just like Alka Seltzer.
A. The Romans took notes and they are presently located in the British museum.
A. Spend an hour in prayer and ask Him.
Very cool — the OP should check it out
“Do you know if you are going to heaven or hell? How do you know?”
If you can dispel the lie of evolution, and show irrefutably that God is the Creator, all further questions relating to the Christian faith are more easily answered.
Please explain the ‘Trinity’. (and please, 3 in One is a lubricant, not an explanation).
The question is not meant to be snarky, but THAT kind of question will come from moslems (and others) who are trying to destroy the faith of Christians (especially youth) in the West. In their schools in the West, they are being trained to ask such questions in an effort to ‘correct’ the ‘errors’ of Christians whose Bible has been ‘altered’ (per muhamed) over the centuries.
Another question from moslems trying to destroy faith among Christians weak in their faith is ‘How can you claim your Bible is the ‘Word of God’, when it has been translated at least five times? (From Aramaic to Hebrew to Greek to Latin to German to English.)
