What are the beliefs?
Christians believe in only one god and forbid idols. Most Christian traditions teach that the one God is expressed in three “persons”- the father, the son and the holy spirit. Jesus followers gave him the title of Christ, which means Messiah or the anointed one.
They have 2 ancient creeds that Christians use as a statement in their belief, the Apostles creed and the Nicene creed.
What are the beliefs
They believe in Jesus and consider him the son of the god. Christians also believe in the justification of faith. Christians also do believe as though the wealthy should share land and property with the poor and that they should share wealthy and luxurious gods with the people of all social classes. 
How do they practice their beliefs?
Most Christians celebrate their faith together by joint worship and especially at communion services (sometimes called the Eucharist or the Lord’s supper).
This act recalls Jesus sharing bread and wine with his disciplines.
How do they practice their beliefs?
They also worship Jesus in church. In most churches or cathedrals, the vocal point is the communion table, emphasizing the importance of community and communion in faith and worship.
The Christians also believed a lot in festivals. The period of time leading up to Easter included holy week where they recalled Jesus’ arrival in Jerusalem. The practice of Christianity may also include rituals, sermons, commemoration, sacrifices, praying, mediation, religious music, and religious art.
