History is traditionally divided in the West into the years before and Jesus' birth - AD and BC.

  • AD (Anno Domini) - Latin for "In the year of our Lord" - is now sometimes referred to as CE (Common Era)
  • BC (Before Christ) is now sometimes referred to as BCE (Before the Common Era)

Many churches have specific church services and Bible readings based on the date, a system known as the Christian calendar.
