It teaches you about the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus is the son of Virgin Mary and is also said to be God’s son. He was born in Judea and in the bible it says that he was raised in the city of Nazareth. 2. How did the religion/philosophy spread? Christianity spread in different ways but probably the most influential one was the early missionary

Man can only survive with the protection of God. With the arrival of Christianity, our society has made many changes to accommodate its demands. This requires putting all of one’s faith in Him otherwise, we would have no purpose. Not only have our lifestyles adapted to this shift, but it has also affected our literature. Christianity's values, morals, and beliefs have influenced much of history's literature and continues to have an impact on today’s as well. This can be clearly seen in the heroic

points of division in Christianity and reflect on ways the church succeeded and failed in practicing professed beliefs. Christianity has become so diverse that some theologians have called it “Christian Pluralism”(Melton, 2007). In 1982 Anglican theologian David Barrett estimated that there were 20,800 denominations in Christianity across the globe (McGavran, 2012). Early Christianity Division in Christianity has occurred in most of its history. Four sects in early Christianity (predating canonized

Christianity is one of the world’s most widely practiced religions and has a long history spanning back over two-thousand years. Some might say that its history might go back even farther to include the history of Judaism because there are prophets in Hebrew scripture who foretold the coming of Jesus Christ, who Christians believe to be the Messiah that God promised the Jewish people. This paper discusses how Christianity influences our society today, some of its history along with some of our beliefs

During the Medieval Era in Europe, Christianity was seen as a threat to the Roman Empire due to Christians refusing to worship other gods or the emperor. As a result, many Christians were persecuted due to their refusals. However, after the fall of the Roman Empire, the church became dominant in Europe. Christianity (Catholicism) was the only religion that was recognized during this specific era. Christianity began its spread from the north and to the west into Europe. It was carried mostly by merchants

Christianity is a relatively young religion. When compared to the course of mankind on earth, the religion itself essentially began a short time ago. Simply put, no one knows how old mankind is. We estimate that the earliest signs of presence on earth dates back approximately 1,200,00 years ago (Latourette 3). Taking these mass amounts of time into account, Christianity and its two- thousand years of existence, seem very brief. When Christianity is placed in the setting of human kind it is still

Christianity is one of the most influential religions known to man. Starting in c. 4 BCE a structure was about to be formed with the birth of Jesus, which led to the creation of the Christianity after Jesus was crucified and resurrected. The religion is monotheistic meaning it follows one god, referred to as “God”. The structure of Christianity has three major branches which are the Roman Catholics, Eastern Orthodox, and Protestants, each branch containing a number of subcategories. Christians

Christianity is not just a religion; it is a relationship with God. (1cor13:1-2) Many people believe in Christianity but at the same time many do not believe in Christianity. Is Christianity real or not? Well yes Christianity is true because of these three points. First Christianity is real because it can be only as true as Jesus. Secondly, evidence shows that Christianity is real through God’s inspiration in the Bible and in recorded history. Third all other religions are both unreliable and inconsistent

"Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important" (C.S. Lewis). Christianity is a religion based on the life and teaching, in the New Testament, of Jesus. It is a type of religion that only believes in one God. People who follow this religion are called Christians. Most Christians believe that God is one eternal being who exists as three distinct, eternal, and indivisible persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ

In the early sixth century Christianity was evolving at a rapid pace. The spread of Christianity was not only moving westward through Europe, but it was also moving eastward down the Silk Road. The eastward spread of Christianity was primarily a form of Christianity known as Nestorianism, after the teachings of Nestorius, a fifth century patriarch. By 635 Nestorian Christianity had reached the heart of China spreading through all of Persia and India. During the middle of the seventh century Nestorian
