What Is Christianity?

Christianity is the world’s largest religion, with over 2.2 billion followers. Christians practice a wide variety of religious practices, from prayer to church services to visiting holy sites to celebrating certain holidays.

Deliverance

Christians believe that everyone can be delivered from sin and the devil if they turn to Jesus for help. It is also believed that those who become Christians have a new spiritual life with the Holy Spirit and can receive God’s love and grace.

Casting Out Demons

Christians have authority to cast out demons, as well as other spirits, because the name of Jesus is a power that binds up and seals away all demonic forces. This power is given to all believers, and they can use it to cast out demons in Jesus’ name.

Healing the Sick

Christ taught that believers are to heal the sick and afflicted. He told his disciples that they should not be afraid to heal the sick because it is the power of God and Jesus was standing behind them.

Miracle Healing

In the Bible, Jesus performed a number of miracles. The common thread in all of these miracles was that the person who was healed had faith.

While Christianity has a bewildering variety of separate churches, sects, and denominations, the focus is always on Jesus as the central figure. It is this focus that has shaped the Christian tradition. It is the reason that, though Christians do not believe in many ideas about God or about the nature of human beings, they do believe in the incarnate Son of God and his saving work for us.
