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.

March Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary Deuteronomy 25 - 1 Samuel 29 including the books of Book of Joshua, Judges and Ruth
Scripture: Joshua 6-8
Israel's conquest of the mighty city of Jericho, covered in chapter 6, is an illustration of several practical spiritual truths. God's only requirement of the Israelites was that they wait, obey, and trust Him for the victory.
Chapter 7 records the disobedience of Achan. God told Joshua that the spoils of Jericho were consecrated to Him and were to be placed in His treasury. But Achan disobeyed God's instructions. He thought he could hide his sin. And because an "accursed thing" was in the camp, God could not dwell with His people. This caused their defeat at Ai. Achan's disobedience was discovered and exposed.
Now that the nation has been sanctified and Achan's sin judged, God can again lead His people to victory. Chapter 8 covers the destruction of Ai. The first defeat was used to good advantage, for now the people of Ai were confident they could overcome Israel again. Note also in this chapter that God allowed the people to take the cattle and the spoil from Ai. If Achan had only waited a few days he would have had all the wealth he could have carried!
