What is Christianity?
Christianity is a set of beliefs, values and a way of life. Beliefs: Christians believe that Jesus Christ is savior, Lord and God’s only son. Christians worship Jesus Christ, who was crucified, died, but rose again after three days. To his suffering we compare our own, and by his miraculous power we also depend on Christ to clean us from the power of death (sin) and to help us in time of need. Christians have access to the Holy Spirit, God’s power that Christ gave to all believers when he ascended to heaven.

Values: Because Christians believe that truth and life can only be found in Jesus, we live by certain standards in order to model a Christ-like life. We believe that we should love our neighbor (and even our enemy) as we do ourselves, we try to be compassionate and caring and provide honorable examples to other people, whilst sharing the good news. These sense of values about good living lay deep at the heart of our relationship with Christ.

Way of Life: Christianity has the power to change people. Christians go to Church to worship every Sunday and often take part in other fellowship activities and Bible studies. Reading the Bible is important for Christians, as is a regular commitment to prayer. Christians also get involved in mission or teaching activities that spread the good news, and they give a percentage of their time and money as a commitment to the church and it’s cause.
