CHRISTIANITY -- the Christian religion based on the Lord Jesus Christ, the only Saviour and Mediator between God the Father and sinful peoples.

Christianity is unique among all the religions of the world. Most of them emphasize the life of the founder but Christianity is based on the Passion, the Death, the Resurrection, and the Ascension of Jesus Christ. The death of Jesus is unique for it was prophesied in the Sacred Scripture/Holy Bible and came to pass in the New Testament age thousands of years later.

Not only is the death of Christ absolutely essential to Christianity. So is His Passion and His Resurrection, are so important that all four gospels - Matthew, Mark, Luke and John - devote two-fifth of their teachings to this combined subject. - Mark 10:45 - summarizes this unique mission of Christ's: "For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and give His life a ransom for many".

The world already had plenty of religions and gods at the time of Jesus' birth. The Romans had combined their gods with those of the Greeks and thousands of deities were worshiped. None of these gods had ever lived, most were based on imagination or heroic stories. But Jesus had actually lived in Palestine, had been crucified under Pontius Pilate (the Roman governor of Judea) and had been raised from the dead by the power of God the Father.

People who worshiped the mythical gods actually chose to ignore the visible signs of truth that pointed them towards God and eventually to salvation through grace. Even since God created the world his everlasting power - however invisible - have been there for the mind to see in the things he has made. That is why such people are without excuse; they knew God and yet refused to honour him as God or to thank him; instead, they made nonsense out of logic and their empty minds were darkened. - Rom. 1:20-21 -

This plan of salvation came to full maturity on the Cross.

Christianity is a Creed, a Religion and it is a Way of life who accept Jesus Christ as the Lord and Saviour.

I have through years of reading, pondering, reflecting and contemplating, the 3 things that last; FAITH . HOPE . LOVE and I would like to made available my sharing from the many thinkers, authors, scholars and theologians whose ideas and thoughts I have borrowed. God be with them always. Amen!

I STILL HAVE MANY THINGS TO SAY TO YOU BUT THEY WOULD BE TOO MUCH FOR YOU NOW. BUT WHEN THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH COMES, HE WILL LEAD YOU TO THE COMPLETE TRUTH, SINCE HE WILL NOT BE SPEAKING AS FROM HIMSELF, BUT WILL SAY ONLY WHAT HE HAS LEARNT; AND HE WILL TELL YOU OF THE THINGS TO COME.

HE WILL GLORIFY ME, SINCE ALL HE TELLS YOU WILL BE TAKEN FROM WHAT IS MINE. EVERYTHING THE FATHER HAS IS MINE; THAT IS WHY I SAID: ALL HE TELLS YOU WILL BE TAKEN FROM WHAT IS MINE. - JOHN 16:12-15 -

God bestows more consideration on the purity of intention with which our actions are performed than on the actions themselves - Saint August...
