Christianity originated in the 1st century AD, founded on the life and
teachings of a Palestinian Jew who lived from 4BC to 29AD, Jesus
Christ.
Christianity originated in Palestine but later reached to most of the
world.
The major figure of Christianity is Jesus who gave his life in what is
believed to be an act of atonement. By this, it is meant that Jesus
dying on the cross made it possible to overcome the separation of God
caused by sin and death for those who believed in him. The symbol of
Christianity is a cross, which is what Jesus was crusafied on.
The Holy Book is The Bible which is divided into the Old Testament and
the New Testament. The Old Testament incorporates the Hebrew Bible
while the New Testament expresses the life of Jesus, beliefs, and the
writings of the early church.
christians generally practice their religion by attending services at
their church and living their lives as the church says. At these
services, among other things, Christians praise their lord and discuss
Jesus. Also, Christians are to confess their sins to their priest.
