Christianity is a monotheistic religion based on the life and teachings of Jesus, who is central to its belief system as the Son of God and the savior of humanity. Its sacred texts, known collectively as The Bible, consist of the The Old Testament, shared with Judaism, and the The New Testament, which documents the life and teachings of Jesus and The Apostles. Christian Theology, The History of The Christian Church, and the veneration of The Lives of the Saints have evolved over two millennia, encompassing a wide array of doctrines, liturgical practices, and ecclesiastical traditions that have played a significant role in shaping Western Civilization.
