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.

July Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary : Psalms 103 - Isaiah 27 including the books of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs
Psalm 145 may have been sung after a battle, as it is a song of thanksgiving for victory. All glory is given to the Lord for His wonderful works, His love, and His providential care for His creatures.
The last five Psalms have been called the "Hallelujah Psalms." The Word "Hallelujah" means "praise to the Lord," and each of these Psalms begins with the Word "praise.".
Psalm 146 expresses the fact that God reigns. Psalm 147 is a call to worship for all creation, with thanksgiving and praise to God. Psalm 148 is a call for the angels to praise God, that the sun, the moon, and the stars praise God, and even let the heavens shout to our great God. In Psalm 149 there is a call for saints to praise God; let them sing with joy and let all Zion rejoice in their King.
Finally, in Psalm 150, there is a call to praise God with trumpets and harps, and let everything that has breath praise God, because He is supreme and everlasting.
It is a wonderful joy to serve the only true God. His love is exceeding above all other loves, because He sent His Son to die for us, His power is above all other powers, because He arose from the dead, thus conquering death, hell, and the grave. He offers forgiveness for sin, and His truth is everlasting, because He cannot lie. His Word says He is coming again for His own.
As we complete our reading of the Book of Psalms, let each of us dedicate our hearts to praising the Lord for His wondrous mercies to us, and serve Him as never before.
