This religion was very common in the 1st century. Christians believe in Jesus Christ, the holy spirit and god. the sign of Christianity is the cross, because Jesus was hung on a cross, left there to die. A christian is a person who believes that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, so that we might live a happy life. They pray every Sunday, in a church. To be a christian you have to have bible. The old testament is the first section in the bible covering all the things that God created. The new testament covers how Jesus died on the cross, and also it talks about the teachings that Jesus gave to his followers. Christians celebrate Christmas, because Jesus was born on the 25th of December, so Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ.
