. Describe the Trinity
|
You forgot to describe the immanent relationships of the Trinity. The Father begets the Son; from the Father, the Spirit proceeds.......The Trinity does not deal with the relationship between humanity and God in Jesus. Christians believe that since humans needed help God choose to join us as a human form. Unlike other religions God has experienced himself a loving obedience. God experiences both sides, the love of a father and the obedient son with dies for others. The Trinity says there is one essence in three persons. This means that Jesus is just one person of God. So by saying God is both the Father and the Son, doesn’t mean there are two Gods, but that God experiences the love in 2 separate ways in two roles. The three persons included in the Trinity are the Father, son, and the Holy spirit. They are intended to be separate roles of God, but not separate Gods.

4. Describe the concept and process of salvation in Christian faith
|
For Christians a main emphasis is on the process of salvation. Salvation is the idea that a higher power saves humanity from spiritual death by providing eternal life. Most religions agree that salvation is something that is needed, but they way the believe in it differs. Jesus is looked as a savior this comes hand in hand with salvation, since Jesus is the savior of Christianity. Jesus died on the cross for the forgiveness of sins. This goes along with the idea that even the smallest of sins is unacceptable to the religion, but since Jesus died for our sins, we can be forgiven and can have external life with God. God is holy, righteous, and just, and given this he rejects sin. But Through Jesus we can be saved. God will forgive a person that makes a mistake with they repent for the sins and ask for forgiveness. To have external life a person must trust in the acts of Jesus and him as a Savior and repent for their sins.
