Christianity invites questions about faith, salvation, and God’s Word, emphasizing a relationship with Jesus Christ, whom Christians believe is the Son of God sent for humanity’s redemption. Jesus’ role is central, as seen in John 14:6 and Romans 10:9, which affirm that acknowledging Him as Lord and Savior is essential to being a Christian and shapes a believer’s life.
Salvation, frequently questioned, is understood as a gift from God through faith in Jesus, not earned by works, as stated in Ephesians 2:8-9. Acts 4:12 further emphasizes that salvation is available exclusively through Christ, assuring believers that faith alone secures their relationship with God.
The Bible is foundational in Christianity, viewed as God’s inspired Word guiding believers and revealing God as Creator. Verses like 2 Timothy 3:16 and Genesis 1:1 illustrate its role, with Psalm 19:1 reflecting God’s majesty in creation. These beliefs guide Christians in understanding God, nurturing a relationship with Him, and living according to His principles.
