Christianity-- I have some questions that i could use answered

The true Christian believes only in the Bible. Because it is the Words of God. Its is being called the Holy Bible, cause the the author is God. It is the sole books that man must received. The other books written by man, like passion, rosary, is not the books that leads you to eternal life.

There is book called My Catholic Faith. Answers the fundamental questions about the religion. Ask in your local bookstore. The Summa Theologica explains in-depth the queries about the faith. But that is difficult to read and understand. Approach your parish priest for guidance. Sometimes they conduct lessons like Bible Study.

new testament is the section associated with christians or new jews. and yes it actually started before the new testament . A prophet told about a saviour to come. The first promise ..first covenant was a saviour. Then the new testament starts off with the birth of the saviour and then his life and struggle, and the first covenant fulfilled. It actually is a continuation of the old jewish religion. they are not seperate. Same God. Same beliefs. Just some chose not to accept Jesus as the saviour they were looking for and continue with the old ways.

the whole of the old testiment is exactly the same for juews and christians they both belive in the old testiment there are two types of jews masianic jews and orthadox jews masianic jews belive in jesus and orthadox jews don't the first christians were the diciples jesus himself was a jew and so were the deciples the jews of that time who followed jesus were the first christians and the gentils or non jewish people who followed christ were the first ones to be known as christians, to be jewish you have to be born a jew but with the birth and life of christ anyone who is willling to accept jesus as saviour can be christian i hope this is helpfull if there is anything else you want to know just ask god bless
