Holy Writings And Guidelines For A Christian

The Bible is the only sacred writing in Christianity. Which is a 

collection of historical books, poetry, prophecy, and letters. 

Essentially it is the same as the Jewish Scriptures, with the 

addition of the New Testament - which relates the story of 

Jesus and the growth of the church in the years after Jesus' 

death and resurrection. 

Beliefs Of A Christian

The Bible is the only inspired, infallible, and authoritative written Word 

of God, penned by man with the leading of the Holy Spirit. 

There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: God the Father, 

God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Christians believe in the deity of 

our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His 

miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death, in His bodily resurrection, 

in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His personal, future 

return to this earth in power and glory to rule a thousand 

years.Christians believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit's 

indwelling. The Christian can live a holy life. 

The beliefs of Christianity state the resurrection of the saved and the 

lost, the one to everlasting life and the other to everlasting damnation. 

Then Jesus will establish His eternal kingdom.
