Christianity is the largest monotheistic theological fellowship ever, centered on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as presented in the New Testament that was first written in Koine Greek. Its followers, known as the Christians believe that this is not an organized religion, but instead a spiritual relationship with Christ; they also believe that Jesus Christ is the begotten Son of God and the Messiah prophesied in the Old Testament. To Christians, Jesus Christ lived and died as being far more than just a wise prophet, a good teacher, and a holy/godly man; He was also the model of a righteous and virtuous life, the revealer and son of God (also claiming to be one with the God, and that He is the only way to the Father), and most importantly the Lord and Savior of humanity who suffered, died, and was resurrected to bring about salvation and redemption from sins, inequities, transgressions, and abominations. Christians maintain that Jesus ascended into heaven after getting access to the keys of Death, Hell, and The Grave. One of the other main goals of Christianity alongside praising and worshiping Christ and spreading the Gospels, is for all ordained saint, missionaries, and evangelists to get as many humans lives saved, sanctified, baptized, and filled with the Holy Spirit as much as possible before the Rapture comes, which is still an active and sacred tradition. Most denominations teach that Jesus will begin His second coming on Judgment Day to judge the living and the dead, granting everlasting life to his followers.
