Welcome To The Christianity Portal
Christianity Abrahamic monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus . It is the world's largest and most widespread religion with roughly 2.4 billion followers, comprising around 31.2% of the world population . Its adherents, known as Christians , are estimated to make up a majority of the population in 157 countries and territories . Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God , whose coming as the Messiah was prophesied in the Hebrew Bible (called the Old Testament in Christianity) and chronicled in the New Testament .
Christianity remains culturally diverse in its Western and Eastern branches , and doctrinally diverse concerning justification and the nature of salvation , ecclesiology , ordination , and Christology . The creeds of various Christian denominations generally hold in common Jesus as the Son of God—the Logos incarnated —who ministered , suffered , and died on a cross , but rose from the dead for the salvation of humankind; and referred to as the gospel , meaning the "good news". The four canonical gospels of Matthew , Mark , Luke and John describe Jesus's life and teachings, with the Old Testament as the gospels' respected background.
The six major branches of Christianity are Roman Catholicism (1.3 billion people), Protestantism (900 million), Eastern Orthodoxy (220 million), Oriental Orthodoxy (60 million), Restorationism (35 million), and the Church of the East (600 thousand). Smaller church communities number in the thousands despite efforts toward unity (ecumenism ). In the West , Christianity remains the dominant religion even with a decline in adherence , with about 70% of that population identifying as Christian. Christianity is growing in Africa and Asia , the world's most populous continents. Christians remain greatly persecuted in many regions of the world, particularly in the Middle East , North Africa , East Asia , and South Asia . (Full article...
This is a Featured article , which represents some of the best content on English Wikipedia. West front of Wells Cathedral
Wells Cathedral Anglican cathedral in Wells, Somerset , England, dedicated to St Andrew the Apostle . It is the seat of the Bishop of Bath and Wells , whose cathedra it holds as mother church of the Diocese of Bath and Wells . Built as a Roman Catholic cathedral from around 1175 to replace an earlier church on the site since 705, it became an Anglican cathedral when King Henry VIII split from Rome. It is moderately sized for an English cathedral. Its broad west front and large central tower are dominant features. It has been called "unquestionably one of the most beautiful" and "most poetic" of English cathedrals.
Its
Gothic architecture is mostly inspired from Early English style of the late 12th to early 13th centuries, lacking the
Romanesque work that survives in many other cathedrals. Building began about 1175 at the east end with the
choir . Historian
John Harvey sees it as Europe's first truly Gothic structure, breaking the last constraints of Romanesque. The stonework of its pointed
arcades and fluted
piers bears pronounced mouldings and carved
capitals in a foliate, "stiff-leaf" style. Its Early English front with 300 sculpted figures is seen as a "supreme triumph of the combined plastic arts in England". The east end retains much ancient
stained glass . Unlike many cathedrals of monastic foundation, Wells has many surviving secular buildings linked to its chapter of
secular canons , including the
Bishop's Palace and the 15th-century residential
Vicars' Close . It is a
Grade I listed building . (

This is a Good article , an article that meets a core set of high editorial standards. St. Mary's Church St. Mary's Church Grade I listed Anglican church in Chesham , Buckinghamshire , and is part of the Diocese of Oxford . Built on the site of a Bronze Age stone circle of puddingstones , parts of the church building date to the 12th century. Remodelled in the 15th and 17th centuries, the church is architecturally a mixture of English Gothic styles. Weakened by additions to the church tower and undermined by burials in and around the church, by the 19th century the building was structurally unsound. The church was remodelled and strengthened in the 1860s by George Gilbert Scott and again in the 20th century by Robert Potter .
Formerly part of the
Diocese of Lincoln , it served what was historically the largest
parish in Buckinghamshire, and the church traditionally had two
vicars . Initially the
advowson (the right to appoint the vicar) was held jointly by a pair of prominent local families, but in the wake of the 12th century civil wars of the
reign of King Stephen (1135–1154), the advowsons were granted to the monks of
Woburn Abbey and to the
Abbey of Saint Mary de Pratis in
Leicester , each of whom appointed their own vicars to the parish. After the
Dissolution of the Monasteries Woburn Abbey, together with its half of the advowson, was granted to the
Earls of Bedford , while the half that had belonged to Leicester Abbey passed through a succession of private owners. In 1769 the Duke of Bedford acquired the Leicester half of the advowson and unified the parish, and from then on the parish was served by a single vicar. (

Saint Paul Writing His Epistles The Pauline epistles Epistles of Paul , or Letters of Paul , are the thirteen New Testament books which have the name Paul (Παῦλος) as the first word, hence claiming authorship by Paul the Apostle . Among these letters are some of the earliest extant Christian documents. They provide an insight into the beliefs and controversies of early Christianity and as part of the canon of the New Testament they are foundational texts for both Christian theology and ethics .
Then came there two women, that were harlots, unto the king, and stood before him. And the one woman said, O my lord, I and this woman dwell in one house; and I was delivered of a child with her in the house. And it came to pass the third day after that I was delivered, that this woman was delivered also: and we were together; there was no stranger with us in the house, save we two in the house. And this woman's child died in the night; because she overlaid it. And she arose at midnight, and took my son from beside me, while thine handmaid slept, and laid it in her bosom, and laid her dead child in my bosom. And when I rose in the morning to give my child suck, behold, it was dead: but when I had considered it in the morning, behold, it was not my son, which I did bear. And the other woman said, Nay; but the living is my son, and the dead is thy son. And this said, No; but the dead is thy son, and the living is my son. Thus they spake before the king. Then said the king, The one saith, This is my son that liveth, and thy son is the dead: and the other saith, Nay; but thy son is the dead, and my son is the living. And the king said, Bring me a sword. And they brought a sword before the king. And the king said, Divide the living child in two, and give half to the one, and half to the other. Then spake the woman whose the living child was unto the king, for her bowels yearned upon her son, and she said, O my lord, give her the living child, and in no wise slay it. But the other said, Let it be neither mine nor thine, but divide it. Then the king answered and said, Give her the living child, and in no wise slay it: she is the mother thereof. And all Israel heard of the judgment which the king had judged; and they feared the king: for they saw that the wisdom of God was in him, to do judgment.
