Christianity is one of the most widespread world religions. It is based on the principle of monotheism, and formed in the I-II century within Judaism. The Central principle of this religion is that Jesus Christ is the one God, possessing the divine, not human power, which was embodied on Earth in the form of the son of God to die for the sins of all people. Christianity – is not just a monotheistic faith. It also brings in the principles of monotheism the idea of the Trinity is a single person (God, the Logos, the Holy Spirit).

The rise of Christianity. Briefly about the early history

In understanding themselves Christians, their religion arose suddenly as a result of the ascension of Jesus Christ into the Kingdom of heaven. However, one cannot ignore the fact that the Christian faith is a continuation of the centuries-old theology of the Jews, mixed with the myths of the Greeks. So, Paul in his genuine Epistles of the New Testament in the 50-ies BC describes “a mysterious religion of Jesus”. And, according to these Scriptures, Paul knew nothing about the divine conception of Christ, nor of the last supper nor of the resurrection after death. He did not say clearly about, whether accepted Jesus baptism, though quite often mentions baptism in the name of Christ.

After 20 years, the gospel of Mark were able to uncover some features of Jesus ' Ministry. The later Gospels of Matthew and Luke are largely based on previous teachings, but John tells the story in a completely different way.

the meaning of Christianity

In the first century ad many of the written works on Christianity were considered unreliable and fraudulent. Different interpretations led to what became possible arguments over the intricacies of theology. Dissent in the Christian Church came to an end when the First Council of Nicaea, convened by Emperor Constantine I in 325, was adopted the first article of faith. And already in the year 380 the Roman Empire, this religion became official.

The characteristics of Christianity

In this religion there are basic principles:

1. Spiritualistic monotheism with the doctrine of the Trinity of Persons in one divine being.

2. God is absolutely perfect Spirit, God is love.

3. The human person is absolutely valuable and is an immortal spiritual being, created by God in his image.

4. The ideal purpose of man is the full infinite spiritual improvement.

5. Spirituality dominates matter. And God-its sovereign.

6. Evil is not in matter and not created from it, but from the perverse will of angels and humans.

7. Christianity – it is also the doctrine of the resurrection of the flesh and the joy of the gain of the righteous in the world, enlightened and eternal.

8. The dogma of Christianity – the doctrine of the God-man who came down to Earth for the salvation of men from sin.

9. This religion is based on the main book, the Bible, and faith.

Thus, Christianity – it is also a religion of harmony of matter and spirit. She doesn't despise any human activities, but trying to Refine them all.

What is Christianity as a creed?

First of all, the belief that the Savior of mankind Jesus Christ was God in the flesh, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. Living on the Earth during the reign of Pontius Pilate, he knew suffering and was crucified. After his death Jesus descended into hell and on the third day he rose from the dead and ascended to heaven. And now from thence he shall come to judge both the living and the dead.

what is Christianity

The Exact meaning of the word “Christianity” is quite vague. And while its interpretation is of great importance for any historical and religious sources to rely on or with whom the conversation is conducted. Traditionally it is the concept outlined in three main points: the apostles ' creed, Nicene creed, Athanasian. However developed and other provisions.

At different times, Orthodox, Catholics, Cathars, Gnostics, Protestants, Mormons, Quakers and other religious groups are not considered Christian and was deemed heretical. In most churches the heresy was considered treason, which ultimately led to mass persecution, torture and murder.

Salvation

In Christianity, man is recognized as being fundamentally flawed, which easily yields to temptation (the original sin of Adam and eve). Anyone can attain salvation, which is given in the form of God's grace. It is necessary to accept the presence of God after death. How exactly is this process? It is not clear, since there are several different claims: some believe that the most important thing – faith; others – that it must be supported by good deeds. However, it is considered that the death of Jesus Christ is the atonement for the sins of all mankind.

the rise of Christianity briefly

Trinity

Much of the Christian world supports the concept of the Trinity, which is based upon that one God has three persons: God the Father (created the Universe), God the Son (Jesus Christ who redeemed people), the Holy Spirit (saves the human soul).

Trinitarism, or the doctrine ofThe Trinity is a generally accepted point of view for most Christians, but not all. For example, Unitarians recognize the existence of only one personality of God the Creator. And the Pentecostal oneness believe the only God is Jesus Christ.

Thus, Christianity – is one of the most fragmented religions, which includes many denominations.
