A encyclopedia and discussion forum for all Christians to share their faith with 349,997 pages and over a million edits. Statement of Faith | Vision

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.

June, 9 - Daily Devotions

June Scripture Portion for Bible Commentary : Job 12 - Psalm 102

Following the discourses of Job, his three friends and Elihu, the next voice is that of the Master. The Lord Jehovah appears unexpectedly in a whirlwind. He is heard by Job, his three friends, and Elihu. Job is about to discover how limited human wisdom is, apart from revelation!

God asks Job several simple questions about the universe and its operation. He begins with creation; then turns to inanimate nature, the snow, hail, rain, and ice. He next asks about animal life. After all the heart-searching questions God put to Job, He then demanded a reply. And Job said, "Behold, I am vile; what shall I answer thee? I will ay mine hand upon my mouth. Once have I spoken; but I will not answer; yea, twice; but I will proceed no further." It is obvious from these words that Job fell before the Lord in humble repentance. When his friends had spoken to him and tried to reprove him, he became incensed with their arguments. However, realizing the truth of all God had said, Job was brought face to face with himself before his Lord. He was silenced as he realized his own sinfulness.

Job had no answer for his complaining. Indeed, he had to realize that his circumstances were ordered by the Lord. It is true that when one knows the Lord and follows Him, whatever befalls him may be received and respected as God's will. God makes no mistakes. He is Almighty, He is Sovereign. In Isaiah 45 He declares six times, "I am the Lord, and there is none else." What a lesson for us today! That we might fully realize that He is the Lord. Were we to do so, we would not worry. And how ridiculous that, as believers, we do fret and worry. Our God created the heavens and the earth, and all that is within the scope of the universe. Beyond that, He offers to provide our every need. How foolish that, as Christians, we fail to trust in His grace and providence!
