1 | What is Christianity? | Acts | Makarios | 8300 | ||
Hello Hank! I would sum up Christianity in this way, "You shall love the LORD your GOD with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind." And "You shall love your neighbor as yourself." (Matt. 22:37,39) Jesus was God Himself! We bear his title, "The Christ", in our title, "Christians", as meaning that we follow after Him, are His disciples, and are committed and bound to pattern ourselves after Him all the days of our lives! :) Trying to explain the full measure of Christianity would be impossible in one single post or by any single human.. But the full meaning of Christianity can only be found by looking towards Jesus Christ and in humans by observing the overwhelming wellspring of joy that has come to live in our hearts! |

Thank you, Nolan, for your fine answer. You used an interesting phrase in your answer, "the full measure of Christianity." I like that. For some 52 years I have been engaged in some feeble attempt to measure it out, to plunge into its depths, to understand fully what it means. My success so far could be compared with trying to measure the amount of water in the Pacific Ocean with a teaspoon. Up to now I have measured only a teaspoonful, maybe two if I stretch it a bit. Clearly I have a ways to go yet. The unsearchable riches of Christ are beyond our ability to comprehend in all their glorious fullness. --Hank | ||||||
