#REDIRECT {{quote | text=This is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins. [[The essence 1 John 4:10]]}} {{summary | text=[[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, and by some mystery that we cannot understand, he is three, yet one: [[God the Father|Father]], [[Jesus|Son]] and [[Holy Spirit|Spirit]]. He created people in his image, to [[love]] him. Yet every person has rebelled against God. Yet instead of turning his back on us, God became a man and lived among us, dying 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.}} {{overview}} {{topics}}* [[God]] | [[Jesus]]* [[Christian]]* [[Becoming a Christian]] | [[Grace]]* [[Living as a Christian]] | [[Love]] | [[Worship]] {{opinions}} {{quotes}} {{returnto}} [[Christianity]]
