Millions, and possibly billions from the time of Jesus's death 2000 years ago until right now.
We celebrate Christmas because of the birth of Jesus, but we also celebrate it because that is the day that God sent his son Jesus down to Earth to save us of our sins. So, Christmas is jesus's birthday.
Wash Hobson Sr. wrote the song "Jesus is on the Main Line" in 1955. This gospel song has since become a popular spiritual anthem, often sung in churches and gospel gatherings. Its themes of faith and communication with Jesus resonate with many believers.
Jehovah's Witnesses indeed claim that they are Christians. Jehovah's Witnesses are "followers of Christ", implying that even if they don't claim to be Christians (which they/we do), they would be anyway. Jehovah's Witnesses indeed claim to be Christian. They accept Jesus as the son of God, being of divine nature. They believe he had a prehuman existence and came to earth to die for mankind's sins. Jehovah's Witnesses believe that there can be no salvation without accepting Jesus sacrifice and honour Jesus as their King and Leader. Since to be a 'christian' means to follow Jesus' example and obey him, they preach the bible in imitation of their leader Jesus, and try to be like him in word and deed. So, yes, Jehovah's Witnesses feel they have the right to be called Christian. Any 'confusion' that has arisen in this regard may be from the fact that Jehovah's Witnesses believe Jesus to be God's Son and not Almighty God himself. They reject the teaching of the trinity as unscriptural. == ==
all the time since they can't be active they have feeling where they become lonely and want to have some fun (thats not hurting them)
All religions have their advantages and disadvantages. But defining them is not possible, since they vary by person.
Christians have been celebratin christmas ever since Jesus died. Other people have been celebrating Christmas since ever since the 1700s.
All haters of Jesus Christ, God's Son, are persecuters of Christians. Unbelievers do not want to admit or give up their sins and this is what Jesus Christ requires. Christians are followers of Jesus and since Jesus is not on earth at this time unbelievers persecute His followers.
Bethlehem is important to Christians because that is where the baby Jesus was born.
Jesus Christ and St. Paul, the founders of Christianity, were both born in Asia. Jesus in Palestine, Paul in Tarsus, a bit north of there.
They were Palestinians, as was Jesus. Armenia was the first Christian Country since the year 301. Armenians adopted The Orthodox Armenian Apostolic Church which was the first in the world. Later came the Catholics when Ancient Rome adopted Christianity in the year 380.
Christians believe that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are one in three, and three in one, the Holy Trinity. Since God created everything, then Jesus made Earth.
The Romans hated everyone who would not worship their idols. Since Christians did not worship idols, [and since the Romans had Jesus (whom Christians regard as God in human form) crucified], the Romans sent many Christians into the arena to be killed for sport and entertainment.
Jesus is inseparable from Christianity since it is upon Him that it is based. Jesus is the reason for the religion, and He established it. Therefore, every part of a Christian's life and beliefs is impacted by Jesus.
there are no people called jesus in the world today .... There are thousands of people named Jesus, it is a very common name both in the century and ever since.
Jesus was Jewish, since his father, God's, people were the Hebrews, or Jews.
Belief in the reality of the resurrection made some people follow the teachings of Jesus, because they assumed that if he really rose from the dead then he must be the Son of God. This belief was apparently not at first widespread, since most people in the Roman Empire declined to become Christians until the time of Emperor Constantine. Even the Jews, who would have known of the reality of the miracles of Jesus, if anyone did, seem to have been largely unmoved by the story of his resurrection.
Christians believe that Jesus was a virgin when he died, so we don't believe that Jesus had a sexual relationship with Mary Magdolin, but even though we believe that Mother Mary was a virgin when Jesus was born, some believe that since she was married to Joseph, that she had children after Jesus, so it is very possible that there is an indirect decendent of Jesus.
