Bible Question: Heloo Praise Jesus, it is my hope that you are Good and doing well in you daily life, i want to ask you one question in which its source is the challenge i met when i was witnessing one of the non-believers in the internet chat-room, He said that Jesus came to establish christianity religion, and on my turn i told him that according to Luke 4:16-19 Jesus did not came for that matter, and so on his turn again he said that if Jesus did not came for that matter of establishing christianity religion, then where was the christianity came from? therefore i need help on this. Thank you and God Bless you so much. |
Bible Answer: My answer to the question "where did Christianity come from" would be that it came from the Lord God Almighty because Acts 11:26 reads......"The disciples were called Christians first at Antioch." However, I would agree that Jesus did not come to "establish the religion of Christianity". He came to die for our sins so that whosoever believes in Him would have eternal life. In other words, He came for something much greater and much more personal than establishing a religion. I pray that this helps. May God bless you and those to whom you witness. |
