SS7G8c: Compare and contrast the prominent religions in Southwest Asia (Middle East): Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. Christianity takes its name from the Greek word ‘Christ’, meaning Anointed One, whom Christians believe was Jesus, the son of God. Jesus was born in Bethlehem, near Jerusalem (both considered holy cities by Christians) and grew up as a Jewish boy. At about the age of 30 he began three years of traveling and teaching. He taught a new way of drawing upon the Jewish tradition.

SS7G8c: Compare and contrast the prominent religions in Southwest Asia (Middle East): Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. Jesus was a Jewish teacher and prophet who lived in Palestine in the first century CE. He revealed himself to be the Son of God in fulfillment of Hebrew scripture, and taught that the Kingdom of God was imminent, bringing with it forgiveness and new life for all who believed. His claim to be the Messiah roused opposition from religious and Roman authorities and he was imprisoned and crucified (executed on a cross). His followers believe that after his death, Jesus was resurrected before being taken up to heaven. The yellow areas show the spread of Christianity from 200 CE to 400 CE.

SS7G8c: Compare and contrast the prominent religions in Southwest Asia (Middle East): Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. After his crucifixion Jesus appeared to his disciples and told them to go out into the world and spread the word of God. By around 60 AD Christianity had spread west and north to many parts of the Roman Empire. When the pagan Roman empire conquered Jerusalem in 70 CE, Christianity attracted many Roman converts. Although being a Christian under Roman rule was illegal, churches were slowly established throughout the Roman empire, including Europe and Africa.

SS7G8c: Compare and contrast the prominent religions in Southwest Asia (Middle East): Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. Christians were a persecuted minority in the Roman empire and many were executed for their faith. A pivotal event in the early church was the conversion of the Roman Emperor Constantine in 312 CE, who gave State approval to Christianity and gave it significant political and financial support. In 300 AD Armenia became the first officially Christian country. At the same time Christianity also spread east through the Persian Empire as far as China.

Have you heard of these Christian holidays and festivals? Advent: The beginning of the Christian Year. Four Sundays before Christmas, Christians set aside time for reflection and preparation for recalling the coming of Christ. Christmas (December 25): The celebration of Jesus’ birth Lent: The 40 days of preparation and penance which begins on Ash Wednesday and concludes at sundown on Holy (Easter) Saturday. Easter: The holiest period of the Christian calendar. It begins with Good Friday, which solemnly commemorates Jesus’ crucifixion, and continues until Easter Sunday which celebrates the resurrection of Jesus. The holy book of Christianity is the Bible and the place of worship for Christians is a church.
