What Do Christians Believe?

Christians believe that there is only one God, whom they call Father as Jesus Christ taught them. The Holy Book of Christians is titled "Bible" where stories of God and Jesus was put in. Year 0 was intended to be the year when Jesus was born, however due to some miscalculation, it was actually 4 years before that, 4 B.C. (before christ) or nowadays written as 4 B.C.E

How did they practice their belief

They pray in the Church and Sing songs to communicate with God. Christians gather together every Sunday to listen to Bible stories and pray together.

How was it spread?

A leader named Paul the Apostle spread it around. He was a Jewish and Roman citizen, which helped a lot when spreading Christianity, because both the Roman citizens and the Jewish can see him as part of the whole without excluding him. However all of the Jewish and Roman leaders was really mad at him for becoming a Christian and ditching his original religion.

WHY WOULD A LEADER USE CHRISTIANITY AS THEIR NATIONAL RELIGION

A leader might use Christianity because it can lead his citizens to believe that he’s the messenger from God, and that’ll make the citizens believe in what he says. Citizens can also have more self-discipline, because if they don’t, God will punish them according to the Bible.
