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.

June, 22 - Daily Devotions
June Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary : Job 12 - Psalm 102
In verses 2 and 6 of Psalm 62 David gives his source of strength even in the time of trouble. He says, "He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved." This Psalm is a poem of devotion to God and shows David's unwavering trust in Him. He had many troubles, but he never failed to trust in the Lord.
In Psalm 63 David is thirsting for God. This Psalm seems to belong to the period when David was in the wilderness (I Samuel 24), fleeing from Absalom. David was still confident of restoration.
Psalm 64 is a prayer for protection against the plots of David's secret enemies. Again we see that he is confident that, through God, he will triumph.
Psalm 65 speaks of the millennial restitution of the earth. Spiritual blessings are realized (verses 1-5), as well as temporal and material benefits (verses 6-13). This Psalm, as well as Psalms 66, 67, and 68 describe the "restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began" (Acts 3:21).
Every Christian should commit to memory Psalm 66:18: "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me." God will not hear the prayers of His saints if they are negligent in reading His precious Word, or if there is strife among the family. I do believe, however, that one of the most prominent reasons for unanswered prayer in the life of a Christian is that of unconfessed sin!
Psalm 67 speaks of full kingdom joy and blessing. The nations know and praise God in verses 1-4, and worldwide prosperity follows in verses 5 and 6.
