Essay on Beliefs.
Christianity is understood to believe in one God, although the important figure in this religion is Jesus ( or Christ), a Jew who came into this world by the pure conception of the virgin Mary.
During his lifetime, Jesus performed miracles and spoke to many people about his father in heaven. As the people started to question his miracles and his confidence of claiming to be God’s son, Jesus was arrested. His punishment was to be hung on the cross by the Romans; he was only 33 years of age. Christians believe that the suffering and death upon the cross that this man endured paid for the sins of all mankind, and because of Jesus’ actions salvation can be achieved by anyone who believes in him. This act of sacrifice is remembered during Lent.
Following his passing away, Christians have faith that he rose from the grave. This celebrates Easter. Jesus appeared to his followers by telling them of the King dome of god. He also promised to his disciples that he would come again one day to bring all of his believers to that kingdom to enjoy eternal life in the presence
Christian holy text (the bible) consists the old, and New Testament, the Old Testament talks about Jews and those who lived before Jesus. It also includes the people who were waiting for their savior to come and take them. This text includes many different stories expressing and demonstrating faith in god. The New Testament talks about Jesus and his effect on the world, we believe that Jesus is the one they talked about in the Old Testament, and they were waiting for him to come and take them to the Promised Land.
