WHY BECOMING A CHRISTIAN? |
|
Accepting
Christ as your personal Savior is a way to start your life
over again. Everything you've ever done wrong has been
forgiven, and you have begun a new journey. No matter what
type of lifestyle you lived before accepting Christ, you may
be feeling overwhelmed at all the ways your life is
changing. You may feel like you are on information overload.
So much to learn!
The good
news is that you don't have to go through any stage of your
journey alone. In fact, you cannot successfully finish your
journey by yourself. From the Bible, we learn that
Christianity is always practiced at both individual
and corporate levels. This means we each live out our
faith on our own and as part of a group. The easiest
way to get plugged into a group of Christians such as
yourself is to go to a bible based church. |

roots back to the creation story of Adam. They also believe
that Abraham is the patriarch of their religion.
Christianity began with those who followed the teachings of
Jesus Christ during his lifetime (about 4 BCE–30 CE). These
followers were called
apostles.
After Jesus’ death, the apostles began the early Christian
church, but because they were all Jewish as well, they
became known at first as Christian Jews.
As Christianity spread, it also divided. The first split was
in 1054 when the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox forms
of Christianity went separate ways. Later, in the 16th
century, the Roman Catholic Church split again with the
Protestant Reformation. The Reformation is ... |

WHAT MAKES CHRISTIANITY
DIFFERENT? |
|
Judaism and Christianity are, in many ways, very similar.
They have a common history and Christians even study the
Hebrew Scriptures as a part of their holy book, the Bible
(the Hebrew Scriptures are called the Old Testament by
Christians). However, there are fundamental values that set
Christians apart. |
