What is Christianity?
Christianity is about God reaching out his hand in friendship to mankind. Christians believe that the whole world and everything in it was created by God. God is a personal being, a living God who is three, yet one: Father, Son and Spirit, just as we human beings have body, mind and soul! (see the Trinity).

The Bible says God created people in his image, to love him. Yet every person has rebelled against God and sinned. Yet instead of turning his back on us, God became a man, Jesus, who most scholars believe was born about the year 4 BC and lived among us. He taught a message of love throughout Palestine but public opinion turned against him and he was executed as a young man.

He died because of us - the death that we should have died. He was crucified on a cross, but he rose from the dead, and now calls us to trust him, to love him and to repent of our rebellion. If we do this, then we our relationship with God becomes restored and we will live forever with God.

Many non-Christians may think that being a Christian is about belonging to a particular church or following a certain set of rule. Most Christians however would agree that at its root, being a Christian means to be in a living relationship with Jesus.

Devotion Of The Day

Prayer With Open Bible


November, 5 - Daily Devotions

November Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary : Luke 23 - I Corinthians 10, including the books of John, Acts, and Romans

Chapter 8 shows Christ in conflict with Jewish leaders and presents a series of important contrasts. In verses 1-20 the contrast is between light and darkness. As the Light of the world, Christ claimed to be God, for God is Light. While darkness speaks of death, ignorance and sin, light speaks of life, knowledge and holiness. Light reproves sin (John 3:20). The lost sinner lives in darkness (Ephesians 2:1-3), and will spend eternity in darkness if he rejects Christ (Matthew 25:30). Notice throughout this chapter that the Jews argue with Christ, rather than submitting to Him.

In verses 21-30 the contrast is between heaven and earth, the contrast being that there are two births. One is a heavenly birth, by God's Spirit from above. The other is the natural birth, when we are born in the flesh. There are two ways to die. The sinner dies in his sins, while the believer dies in the Lord. The difference is faith in Jesus Christ.

Another contrast is between the children of God and the children of Satan (verses 41-47). The Bible speaks of four different kinds of children. By nature we are born children of wrath (Ephesians 2:3). When we reach the age of deliberate sin and rebellion, we become children of disobedience (Ephesians 2:2). When we place our faith in Christ, we become children of God (John 1:12). Finally, the person who rejects Christ, preferring self-righteousness, the devil's substitute, becomes a child of the devil. Remember that children of the devil are not always immoral drunkards or gamblers; many times they are self- righteous men who reject Christ. Much of what passes for Christianity today is not true, spiritual, Bible- based religion, but is the devil's counterfeit. Millions of people today are blinded by Satan, and have a form of Godliness, but have never received Christ as their own personal Saviour.
