All About Christianity

"Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved." --Acts 16:31  "On account of the heresies, the toil of discovery must be undertaken."  --Clement of Alexandria, c. 195 AD  "Christianity claims to give an account of facts - to tell you what the real universe is like." --C.S. Lewis, 1944

• The Christian God

Christians believe that there is only One God and that is the Christian God. He is the god that created the entire universe and all of the things that are in it. Their God created the earth, sun, moon, stars, and others things from the sky. He them made humans. He created Adam at first, and when He noticed that he is lonely, he made another human in a form of a woman and that is Eve. Adam and Eve were the first human creations of god. Human race began with the two.

• Jesus Christ

God has a begotten son, and that is Jesus Christ. He came to earth and was born from the Virgin Mary. He has to be given birth here on earth in order that human sins will be forgiven. Jesus Christ grew up just like any other human, though he has a godly spirit. His main purpose is to warn people about the coming of God, and that people must repent at once. People became mad at Jesus trying to teach people about God. They later tortured and crucified him. All of these have to be done, so that sins will be forgiven as his blood washed the sins of the world. After he dies, he went back to heaven and be with his real father which is God. Jesus Christ and God will return to earth in due time to judge the living and the dead.

• The Virgin Mary

She is the biological mother of Jesus Christ. She gave birth to a son who was to become king. Mary was still a virgin when she got pregnant with Jesus. This is because she is under the power of the Holy Spirit at that time. She was later married to Joseph, who treated Jesus like his own son.

• After life

Christians believe that there is life after death. When you do goodwill on earth, and have fulfilled the purpose of God in your life, you will go to heaven. If you did bad, you will be going to hell.

• Other religions

There is lots of division of Christianity. Other sects have been created along the generations. Although they may be many, they still believe in One God. They were just divided by their churches. Catholicism is the largest of all Christian religions.

• The cross

Since Jesus Christ dies in the cross, people started worshiping the cross as a sign of his death. The cross was the symbol that Jesus existed.
