Best Answer

The Holy Bible is the guide to Christians.

Another View:

The above answer is obviously inadequate. The "Holy Bible" says nothing about a trinitarian deity, nothing about Chalcedonian Christology (defined in related link below). There is nothing in the "Holy Bible" about Jesus or the Holy Ghost being "of one substance with the Father" or "true God of true God".

The Christianity that is believed in today all over the world was much more influenced by the writings of early Church fathers, expecially Augustine and his ilk, and by the prejudices of Constantine and fouth century politics, than it was by the "Holy Bible".

Anyone who fails to take this into consideration needs a refresher course in the history of western civilization.

What are some examples of Pauline characteristics in the Bible?

"Pauline Christianity is a term used to refer to a branch of Early Christianity associated with the beliefs and doctrines espoused by Paul the Apostle through his writings. Most of orthodox Christianity relies heavily on these teachings and considers them to be amplifications and explanations of the teachings of Jesus. Others perceive in Paul's writings teachings that are radically different from the original teachings of Jesus documented in the canonical gospels, early Acts and the rest of the New Testament, such as the Epistle of James. The term is generally considered a pejorative by traditionalist Christians as it carries the assumption that Christianity as it is known is a corruption of the original teachings of Jesus." see link below.
