1 Jesus Christ Jesus was born about 7 BC in Bethlehem in Judea, by the Mary. With his miraculous birth, he is considered the Son of God and God himself. Most texts begin with Jesus ministry after his baptism in the Jordan River by John the Baptist and of his fasting in the wilderness for 40 days. During the final day of his fast, the Devil tried to tempt him, but failed. After his encounter with the Devil, Jesus moved to Capernaum to begin his teaching. As the numbers of his followers increased, Jesus began training disciples to work with him. Once trained, he and his disciples traveled to nearby towns to preach the word of God. Much of what he taught challenged the authority of religious and civil leaders. Jesus gained as many enemies as followers. As their ministry grew, it was reveled to his disciples that Jesus was the Messiah. This revelation also led to the death of Jesus. Threatened by Jesus growth in popularity, the leaders devised a plan to kill him. With the aid of one of the twelve disciples, Judas Iscariot, Jesus was arrested and sentenced to death. After being found guilty for blasphemy and other charges, he was sentenced to death. Jesus was executed by crucifixion. Three days after his death, Jesus arose from his tomb and appeared to his disciples. After a brief time with his disciples, Jesus ascended into heaven.
2 The Bible is a library of books named after what the Greeks called it: Biblio or 'The Books'. It is split into two sections: The Old Testament which tells the stories of Jewish history The New Testament which tells the story of Jesus life and teaching. The old testament is the story of the creation of the Earth and Jewish history. The new testament is the story of Jesus. The Bible is translated into 2000 languages There is at least one copy in every church It was first printed in English in 1535 It is made up of 66 books written by different writers It was written over about 1000 years It is made up of stories, poems, psalms, prayers, laws and letters. The first four books of the New Testament are called the gospels - which means Good News! The New Testament is 27 books - 5 history books, 21 letters and the Book of Revelation which is a prophecy about the future. The gospel of Mark tells the story of Jesus 40 years after his death. Matthew's and Luke gospels are similar telling us what the writer thought we ought to know about Jesus' life. The Gospel of John was written later. Other books of the New Testament are The Acts of the Apostles and the letters. These tell the story of the first few years of Christianity how the message was spread and how people were converted. Paul who was a very important teacher wrote the letters and his letters contain many lessons for the early Christians. This is the history for the Christian church - just as the Old Testament is the history for the Jewish religion! The bible is the best selling book of all time!
3 Christianity Christianity is the world's biggest religion, with about 2.2 billion followers worldwide. It is based on the teachings of Jesus Christ who lived in the Holy Land 2,000 years ago. Through its missionary activity Christianity has spread to most parts of the globe. Place of Origin Founder Sacred Text Sacred Building Holy Places Major Festivals Main Branches (Denominations) Israel Jesus of Nazareth The Bible - Old and New Testaments Church, Chapel, Cathedral Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Nazareth, Lourdes (a popular place of pilgrimage), Rome, Canterbury Easter, Christmas, Anglican, Roman Catholic, Free Churches, Orthodox, Reformed, Who is the founder of Christianity? Jesus Christ, who was crucified around A.D. 30 in Jerusalem, is the founder of Christianity. Who is Jesus Christ? Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He came to earth to teach about love and fellowship. He represents the person that all Christians must strive to be. Jesus was a Jew who was born about 2000 years ago in Bethlehem. Jesus lived for 33 years before being crucified by the Romans. What other names is Jesus known by? Son of God Light of the World Lamb of God The Good Shepherd. Who are Christians? Christians are people who believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and who follow his teachings and those of the Christian churches that grew up after his death. Christians believe that Jesus rose from the dead and appeared to his disciples (followers) to show everyone that there is another life with one, eternal, loving God.
4 Why are Christians called Christians? Christians get their name from Jesus Christ who is God's son. What do Christians believe? Christians believe that Jesus Christ was the Son of God and that: God sent his Son to earth to save humanity from the consequences of its sins Jesus was fully human, and experienced this world in the same way as other human beings of his time Jesus was tortured and gave his life on the Cross (At the Crucifixion) Jesus rose from the dead on the third day after his Crucifixion (the Resurrection) Christians believe that Jesus was the Messiah promised in the Old Testament Christians believe that there is only one God, but that this one God consists of 3 "persons" o o o God the Father God the Son The Holy Spirit Christians believe that God made the world. Where do Christians worship? The Christian place of worship is called a Church. They are often built in the shape of a cross with the altar facing east towards the rising sun. The Christian spiritual leaders are called priests or ministers. (vicars). What is Christian worship like? Christian worship involves praising God in music, speech, readings from scripture, prayers of various sorts, a sermon and various holy ceremonies. What is the Christian holy book called? The Bible is the Christian holy book. It is divided into the Old and New Testaments. Parts of the writing contained in the Old Testament are also sacred to Jewish and Muslim people. What are the two main Christian festivals? The two main Christian festivals are Easter and Christmas. They are major milestones in the Western secular calendar. What are the most important Christian Festivals? The most important Christian festivals are: Lent, Easter and Christmas. For the other festivals visit our page about the Church Year.
5 What are the Christian symbols? The cross is the main symbol. It reminds Christians that Jesus died on the cross to save them. The dove is the symbol of the holy spirit and peace. The fish symbol was created using the Greek letters which spell out ICTHUS : Jesus Christ God's Son Saviour. The Romans persecuted the Christians and it became dangerous for them to meet. So the Christians devised a secret code. They drew half a fish in the sand. If a person completed the fish, they knew he or she was a believer too. Under the fish sign the Christians wrote the Greek word fish. These letters stood for: Jesus Christ God's Son Saviour What are the 10 Commandments? From the Holy Bible, King James version. Exodus 20:3-18 (abridged) 1. Thou shalt have no other gods before me 2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image 3. Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain 4. Remember the sabbath day and keep it holy 5. Honour thy father and thy mother 6. Thou shalt not kill 7. Thou shalt not commit adultery 8. Thou shalt not steal 9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour 10. Thou shalt not covet any thing that is thy neighbour's How is Christianity similar to other religions? Christianity shares a number of beliefs and practices with other religions, particularly Judaism and Islam. With Judaism and Islam, Christians believe in one God, who created the universe and all that is in it. All believe that this God is active in history, guiding and teaching his people. Christianity and Judaism share the same roots. The Old Testament and the Torah (Jewish Holy Book) have the same content. The Jews are awaiting the coming of a Messiah or Saviour, while Christians believe that Jesus Christ was the Saviour and are now waiting for his second coming.
6 Which religion did Christianity develop from? Christianity originally developed as a part of Judaism. Jesus was a Jew. How is Christianity different from Judaism? Christianity came to regard Jesus as in some sense God's presence in human form. This was unacceptable to most Jews. Judaism is defined by a covenant made between God and the Jewish people. Part of this covenant is the Law, a set of religious and ethical rules and principles. Most Christians came to regard both this covenant and Law as in some sense superseded by Jesus' teaching and the community that he established. On the night he died, Jesus talked about establishing a "new covenant" based on his death and resurrection. Jews believe that there is one God like Christians do, but they do not believe that this one God consists of 3 "persons". Why are there different branches of Christianity? There are different branches of Christianity because some Christians worship in different ways. What are the different branches (denominations) of Christians? There are several denominations of the Christian faith, however all Christians share common beliefs. Church of England - Anglicanism The Church of England is the officially established Christian church in England. Roman Catholic The Catholic Church is the oldest institution in the western world. It can trace its history back almost 2000 years. Baptists For Baptists, the church is not just a particular place or building, but rather a family of believers, committed to Christ, to one another and to the service of God in the world. Methodist The calling of the Methodist Church is to respond to the gospel of God's love in Christ and to live out its discipleship in worship and mission. Orthodox The Orthodox Church shares much with the other Christian churches in the belief that God revealed himself in Jesus Christ, and a belief in the incarnation of Christ, his crucifixion and resurrection. Seventh-day Adventist The belief which makes Seventh-day Adventists really stand out, though it is not the most important part of the faith, is the belief that Saturday is the Sabbath (the day of worship).
