Gilly, to get any meaningful insight as to what the individual faiths represent, you would need to ask people who actually follow them.

We can only give our own, often misguided, explanations which are not worth very much at the end of the day.

i cannot speak for the other religions, but here is what Christianity is about



Jesus Christ pursues a relationship with us. Have you ever been in a relationship where you were always the one who was initiating? They are tiresome and usually don't last very long. Best friends are the ones who enjoy each other so much that they invest their time equally in pursuit of that relationship. Unlike religions that try to reach their God, with Christ you see God reaching out to us. Jesus Christ said why he came: "that you might have life, and have it more abundantly." He came to give us an eternal life with him, for those who will believe in him.


Jesus claimed to be God. No world religion's key figure claimed to be God.


Jesus lived a perfect life and showed his deity in the miracles he performed...healing the blind, quieting a violent storm at sea, raising people from the dead, instantly providing food for thousands of people. World religions have leaders who gave interesting messages, but none of them showed their miraculous power like Jesus did. Jesus said, "Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves."


In many world religions people whip themselves for their sins or perform extensive self-sacrificing rituals. Jesus offers us forgiveness because as God, he paid for our sin for us. "God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." On the cross, Jesus carried all of our sins for us and paid for them.


Jesus rose from the dead three days after he was crucified. Many religions talk about reincarnation. Jesus, on a number of occasions, told others that he would be crucified and would then rise from the dead three days later. Jesus wanted to publicly prove his deity beyond any doubt. The Roman authorities were aware of this, and so posted an 11-14 man Roman guard outside Jesus tomb, and sealed it with a Roman insignia warning people to stand clear. Yet, three days later his body was gone from the tomb and Jesus showed himself alive to more than 500 people. No world religion claims that their central figure physically rose from the dead or even said that they would.


The message of the Bible is unique. It is not a compilation of poetic, disjointed ideas. The Bible reveals God and His plan for our lives. It records for us that something in history went wrong and that the relationship we had with God was broken. It tells us how to restore that relationship and what the benefits are of doing that.

All of the things done in the name of Christainity were not done by God's church.


Adam did not know. He ate of the tree. Now knowing, he did sin. (Sin is transgression of the law...the law is the commandments.) All men sinned. (The soul that sins will die (both deaths...body and spirit).

To save mankind from a certain death. God became flesh to live sinless.
Being sinless, was not under the law to death. This life that is forever living is able to give his life in place of all of those that are to die.

Christ died for all (his everlasting for all). Still he was quickened by the father, because there was no sin in him.

All that accept this God given forgiveness and change their ways are continuely under the grace of forgiveness. Those not accepting are still under the law unto death, both body and spirit. They will be consumed and be as if never born. Nonexistant!

God is making a family proven. The creation will be restored and ruled.

Satan did war with God and all creation was made a waste. The Earth was REFORMED to be a habitat for man AFTER THAT WAR. THERE WAS ANOTHER EARTH AGE BEFORE ADAM.

Christianity is believing that Jesus walked this earth as the Son of God, for all His brothers and sisters, to wipe away our sins.

what's nonsense about it? That's what a Christian isdunno I didn't preach about it.

There are a huge amount of religions out there Gilly, some of them think that Christ was just a prophet, while others believe there was no Christ.

Waddya want from us?confused

Maybe, lead by example and YOU tell us something about the religions you know, and then we can get a Gilly's Guideline to followcheers

Perhaps one with sense would understand that this is the basis of Christanity. No preaching....just facts.
