What Do Christians Believe? Jesus Christ and Him Crucified
Asking what do Christians believe can be question with many answers according to some. The same can be said when asking if you are religious. Both Christian and religious are words thrown around sometimes when someone wants to discredit a truth. What makes Christianity different from other religions/beliefs besides belief in God the Father, Jesus Christ as the Son of God, and the Holy Spirit making up what is called the Trinity? The answers to these questions are probably easier to understand than you think they are. Last question first. All the other religions teach in varying ways that a person must do something, or many things to “earn” their way back into God’s good graces to heal the broken relationship we all have & feel with God. They are religions based on works done by you. God is Holy and we are not. Sin entered the world through the one man Adam. Romans 12 5: 12-21 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, & death by sin; & so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned.
Now, you & I inherited a sinful nature. We on our own can do nothing to heal this broken relationship. There is hope. Don’t just give up here & leave this site. You have to understand the bad news before you can understand the good news. This is just one of the ways Christianity is different. Also, Christianity, solves the problem of this broken relationship where other religions do not. God provided a free way back from our sinful & lost condition, so keep reading.
The Good News!
Christians believe Christ was crucified, and rose from the dead. He paid the price for ours sins. 1 Corinthians 2 “For I determined to know knowing among you except Jesus Christ , and Him crucified.” The great Apostle Paul said this as he spread the gospel & set up new churches after Christ’s resurrection. No one can enter heaven by being good. The good news is, God did not leave us without hope. Out of love did for us by sending His one and only Son to pay the price for our sins. Isaiah 53:5 says, “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds, we are healed.” This was written in The Old Testament 700 hundred years before Jesus was born. No other religion will heal the broken relationship between ourselves and God. God’s mercy and grace are a gift because of His great love for us and our sins have been paid for by Jesus’s death upon the cross. Jesus Christ gave His life for our sins.
Why the Bible is so important
Again, what do christians believe? The Bible clearly teaches salvation comes by faith, and faith alone. There are some Christian denominations that teach faith plus works. These others can never provide the full assurance that God wants us to have. If you feel drawn to this website, there is a reason. A changed life, character, new desires, all produce in us changes that bring about good works. Do these works justify us, of course not? Faith in the death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ justifies, and saves us. I want to stop here for a moment & make a quick point. Always read the Bible for yourself and never take any one person’s word as the authority, including mine. What I have presented is backed up by verses not taken out of contest to the best of my ability. Some of this website is still under construction!
