the Old Testament.
Christian
Beliefs
 One God: Christianity is founded on
the belief that there is one God
composed of three distinct persons:
God the Father, Jesus Christ his
Son, and the Holy Spirit. They serve
distinct purposes but are one as a
deity.
 God created the world: Christians believe
God created the world in six days, resting on
the seventh. They believe man is His most
prized creation.
Jesus, God's Son: Jesus Christ is God's Son and
the only way to salvation and forgiveness of
sins. Christians believe he was sent to earth,
born from a virgin, was crucified, and rose
from the dead in three days so that man's sins
could be forgiven once and for all.
 The Bible: Christians' holy book, the Bible,
is believed to be God's inspired word, a
historical document, and a guide for faithful
living.
 Sin: Christianity teaches that all people are born
into sin and no one is good enough to earn
salvation. It's this sin that separates mankind
from God with whom they can only be forgiven
and justified through belief in God.
 Salvation: This can only be achieved through
repentance of sins and belief in Jesus Christ
and His death and resurrection. Only then can
Christians have a relationship with God that
was only made possible through Christ's
sacrifice.
 Afterlife: Most Christians believe in a
Heaven and Hell, eternal destinations for
those who have been saved and those
who are not, respectively. Heaven is a
paradise reserved for believers and Hell a
place of torment for those who have
rejected God.
 Angels and Demons: It is believed that there are
beings, created by God, that influence mankind.
Angels strive to further God's purpose and
message and demons' goal is to lead people away
from God under the leadership of Satan or the
Devil. Many believe the two armies are constantly
at war for the souls of humanity.
 Christians call the message of Jesus
Christ the Gospel, meaning the good
news.

“Faith is to believe what you do
not see; the reward of this faith is
to see what you believe.”
- Saint Augustine
For St. Augustine, Christianity, as
presenting the full revelation of the true
God, is the only full and true philosophy. All
knowledge leads to God, so that faith
supplements and enlightens reason that it
may proceed to ever richer and fuller
understanding.
For St. Augustine, physically we are
free, yet morally bound to obey the law.
The Eternal law is God Himself. According
to this law, humanity must do well and
avoid evil, hence, the existence of moral
obligation in every human being. Christian
life is not easy. However, no human being
should become an end to himself. We are
responsible to our neighbors as we are to
our actions.
