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.

July Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary : Psalms 103 - Isaiah 27 including the books of Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs
These Psalms are Psalms of great praise. They are also sometimes called the Hallel Psalms--meaning praise.
Like Psalm 113, they were probably sung by families on the night of the Passover. Psalms 113 and 114 were probably sung at the beginning of the meal, and Psalms 115--118 at the close of the meal. They, also, must have been hymns that Jesus and the disciples sang at the Last Supper.
Psalm 114 is a song of exodus, recalling the wonders and miracles of Israel's deliverance out of Egypt.
Psalm 117 is a summons to all the people to praise the Lord, It is also the middle chapter of the Bible, and the shortest, but its two verses contain a tremendous message. They emphasize praise to the Lord by all people, for His mercy and for His truth, which shall endure forever.
Psalm 118 was Jesus' farewell hymn to His disciples as He left the Passover on His way to Gethsemane and Calvary. Note especially verse 24: "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.".
This is certainly a day for rejoicing. And each of us should thank our heavenly Father for the independence He has given to the United States of America which was founded on Godly principles, by a group of dedicated men who were willing to fight for freedom. God has honored and blessed our country above all countries on the face of the earth. Each of us should be thankful for the God-given privilege of being Americans.
