Christianity

Christ also known as Jesus  is the central figure of Christianity  and so the followers of Christ are called Christians . Christians are the people who have their beliefs and faith in Jesus and they worship him .

Name Jesus originates from a Latin form of Greek name  Ἰησοῦς (Iēsous)  an interpretation of the Hebrew Yeshua  (ישוע) .
where as Christ comes from Ancient Greek Χριστός,  Christós   meaning anointed is a translation of Hebrew word מָשִׁיחַ (Māšîaḥand the Syriacܡܫܝܚܐ (M'shiha), the Messiahand is used as a title for Jesus in the New Testament.

Jesus (7–2 BC to 30–33 AD) is regarded as the awaited "messiah" . A messiah you will come and save us all .But save us from what?  Why Do WE Require A Messiah?He was the son of God ,but why did God send his only son for us?  There are a lot of questions that rise up in our hearts and minds . Why did a sinless man die for us? 
When God created the Earth and all the living beings , 
God also created Adam and Eve(Genesis 1-27) in his own likeness. And He said it was good, because it was good. Everything was perfect and good .
 But since when Adam and eve disobeyed God ,Cane killed Able - God has seen a lot of hatred in human heart.
He has seen a lot of sin around , a lot of Killing,stealing ,  lust,covert,anger and it was too much for him to take it and so God destroyed the  Earth saving each pair of animals and birds and every other living creature and it was done by the man named Noah . A new beginning for Noah descendants came into existence a chance to restore relationship between God and Man .And then was born a man who would listen to God's words and follow him and have faith in him it was Abraham . Abraham was asked  to leave his land and go to the promise land , God promised him that he will be father of many nations and He  will give him descendants as numerous as the stars all people will be blessed though him. And so he did and he had to prove his Faith again and again.

Moses
Nearly 400 years after Abraham  famine forced the Israelites to go from promise land to Egypt and there they were enslaved by Pharaoh. And God  choose Moses , for He would set his people free.

God sent Ten plagues to change Pharaoh minds but he denied every time. God will keep on doing it until Pharaoh breaks and by the final plague in which every first born son will die but Israelites were spared.
And Moses freed them from the Pharaoh by parting the waters  .Moses leads the Israelites to mount Sinai where god first spoke to him. And God gives laws to Moses written in stone - THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.


Joshua


Joshua witnessed to the covenant and now He leads the people to inherit the Land. God made Moses to parts water but Joshua parted land.
March around the city once a day with all the armed men do this for  six days carry Gods Commandments. on seventh day march around the city for seven times and priests should make a loud sound with the trumpet and all people should make a large sound and glory will come. And the Jericho was undertaken by Joshua.
Hundred years after Joshua came Samson , Samuel(prophet) and many more to get rid of Palestinian but still it was not enough.

Then came in a new Era of KINGS , A King selected by God . And the first king of Israel was Saul. He was anointed by Prophet Samuel . But no man is good enough to rule god's kingdom. And so he to disobeyed the lord and his kingdom torn apart and then came in David the next King of Israel he was too anointed by Samuel. David battles with Palestinian for decade , He becomes a warrior and a leader and the next King. But for him also it was difficult to follow Gods commandments.
After him many kings and prophets came one of them was Daniel who after decades in exile took people back to their home .
Now Romans undertake Israel , and Israel suffers like never before.  

And then comes Jesus who is the king .
He is the son of God.
God's message to us through His Only begotten Son John 3:16-17: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. “For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.”.

This was a little bit about Christianity - about Jesus Christ The son Of God Our Saviour
