Christianity
“Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He rose again
the third day according to the Scriptures”
(1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
There are many religions in the world, but Christianity outshines them all. That is because Christianity is more than a religion; Christianity is a person.
The heart and center of Christianity is the person of Christ, the Son of God, who is living at the right hand of God in heaven. The Bible declares, “I am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive, for evermore” (Revelation 1:18). The Lord Jesus Christ is “the Way, the Truth, and the Life” (John 14:6).
This person is also with us, as He promised His own in resurrection, “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world” (Matthew 28:20).
He is the great “I am.” Indeed, He is personally the heart and essence of Christianity. No wonder the Apostle Paul, having turned from mere religion to Christianity, could say, “For to me to live is Christ” (Philippians 1:21).
