History of Christianity

Though there are more than two billion followers of Christ and practitioners of Christianity throughout all different nations of the world today, a relatively small amount of Christians actually know the history of Christianity. The truly devout and pious, of course, know all about the history of Christianity as it is written in the Holy Bible. The history of Christianity is well over two thousand years old now, and throughout the years, there have been different theories as to who the true founder of Christianity is. The large majority however, believe that the one true founder of Christianity is none other than Jesus Christ himself. After all, the history of Christianity is based upon the life of Jesus Christ, the savior and redeemer of all Christians. In over two thousand years of the history of Christianity, there may have been several misinterpretations and inaccurate translations of the Holy Bible, however, the founder of Christianity, to all Christians, is and always will be Jesus Christ. It is only right that the history of Christianity is very heavily based on the life of the founder of Christianity, and though it has been well over two thousand years, there are still billions of individuals in all various countries around the world that still believe in the true founder of Christianity, Jesus.

The majority of Christians know the very basic history of Christianity. The Bible contains a very lengthy and in depth history of Christianity and while the Old Testament of the Holy Bible focuses on what life was like for people before Christ was born, the New Testament follows the teachings, scriptures, and gospels of the founder of Christianity himself, Jesus Christ. Though many churches of Christ offer Bible study, or Bible meditation, classes on Sundays and maybe even on a various weeknight, many Christians are caught up in their hectic and busy schedules of everyday life in the fast paced and always changing society that we live in today. Due to the rapid lifestyle that we have become accustomed to throughout the years, many Christians simply do not find the time and mindset to really sit down and read the Holy Bible, studying the history of Christianity. The profound meaning and purpose of Christianity has been steadily declining throughout the years, and the perfect example of this is quite clearly evident in our society today. Perhaps two of the most important dates in the history of Christianity in that we celebrate and worship the founder of Christianity in all of His greatness have been reduced to social Hallmark holidays for large corporate firms to exploit and market without shame. The two holidays of course, are Easter and Christmas. The next time you celebrate Easter or Christmas, remind yourself of what the holiday is really meant for; incorporate the founder of Christianity as well as the history of Christianity while you celebrate these holidays rather than just comply with the social defamation of Jesus Christ.
