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.

May Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary : 1 Chronicles 7 - Job 11 including the books of Ezra, Nehemiah, and Esther
Job first answers his critics with a picture of despair. He did not know why he was suffering so bitterly. His family was dead. His wealth and influence were gone. He was suffering without relief. His enemies seemed to have the upper hand. Bildad had accused him of being a hypocrite. In chapter 9 Job acknowledges that he is a sinner, but he clearly denies that he is a hypocrite.
Job complains bitterly and wishes he had never been born. Zophar, who was generally a religious know-it-all, gives his first speech and, finally, Job grows sarcastic at the cutting words of his accusers. Job was a man of like character and passions as men today. Rather than seeing the situation as it really was, and turning it over to God, he began to complain. Rather than comforting Job, Zophar, who was supposedly Job's friend, accused him and told him to put away his iniquity. Zophar was the educated religionist who claimed to know all about Job's situation! His accusations did not comfort or help Job, but made him even more bitter, and led him into the sarcastic words recorded in chapter 12.
