More On Christianity
Christianity is unlike any other religion. In the since that just in the word "religion " means what man does to reach God. But Christianity is what God done to reach man. God revealed as triune (three in one) came to earth and created Himself as a man, Jesus. He is called the "Son of God". Third part of the Godhead of Father (God), Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit). No other religion did "God" offer Himself for the sacrifice needed to repair God and mans relationship. God the Father being so Holy that it would kill man to touch or see Him as He is, it was needful for Jesus the Son to come and interact with man and be a Holy sacrifice at the same time. And to maintain this relationship He sent the Holy Spirit to live within man to bond the relationship with God and man for eternity. And the Holy Spirit serves to teach mankind of Jesus and guide them how to live holy lives to bring glory to God the Father.
This is Christianity in a nutshell. I did not give any scripture reference because I wanted to keep my post short and to the point.

God On The Night Shift
"Now there were in the country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were afraid. Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I give you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people." Luke 2:8-9
On the night of the greatest event in world history the Lord choose to reveal Him-self to low class shepherds of the fields. These shepherds had to travel away from their families to get their herd to greener pastures. They had to watch in shifts during the night to protect them from predators. They had no corral to place them in for safekeeping. The night shift shepherds were surely the hired hands of the owning family. No evidence just experience on those who is always chosen for the night shift.
God chooses the lowly to share in the Good news of a savior being born. This shows us that God loves dearly those in low places like those missing their families because of "greener pasture".
If you find yourself in this situation as I have found at this time. Rejoice that God has placed angels to watch over you, His flock, during the night. Receive His Good News and joy to all people like you.

Introduction To Christianity
Brothers and Sister in Christ,
I would like to write a little about Christianity and clear up some misunderstanding some my have. First it is not an American religion. AS of now the USA is less Christian in life than some African nations. Just because someone says they are a Christian does not make them one. Just as sure as saying you are a Hindu or Muslim does not make you one. Christianity is not a race. A Jew may be a Jew in race but not a Jew in belief. Christians cross all native barriers. Christianity can be practiced in any culture as long as they conform to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Christianity can not merge with other religions. One great leader told others he was Christian, Hindu and Muslim. This sounds good but it is impossible. Each contradicts the other. To claim all three means you've failed in all three. And it is up to all people to hear their God and receive the relation from Him which is true. And only one can be true.
Grace to you all,
Wayne Brooks
P.S.
Next I hope to give a little background on Christianity.
