As everyone knows, Christianity is one of the most popular religions in the world. There are three main types of Christianity: Catholicism, Protestantism and the Orthodox Church. Although there are different types of Christianity, they believe in only one faith, namely God. Since my ancestors, my family and I have been Buddhists and I don't know much about Christianity. In recent years, Christianity has become very popular in China. During my last winter vacation, I returned to China to visit my family. As usual, I was invited to dinner by most of my relatives. As a surprise, one of my aunts invited me to a Christmas gathering to have dinner with Christians. I was totally surprised by the number of people at the party. The whole room was very crowded and everyone was very friendly. The Christian community is growing at a very rapid pace and many Buddhists in China have converted to Christianity. I'm a very democratic person and I think it's a good thing to have faith, regardless of which god people choose to believe in. Personally, I don't have much knowledge of Christianity; I only know that Christianity is a religion of love and forgiveness, but I have watched many movies related to Christianity. No matter what religion I believe in, history and knowledge about Christianity is always good to study. After the “Introduction to Christianity” course, my understanding of Christianity grew quickly. I'm really interested in the parables of the Bible. Parables are the simplest and most effective way to understand God's behaviors. Parables are the stories told by Jesus, and these parables represent the reasons why Jesus spoke in parables, about faith, and about the character of God. Jesus tells a parable...... middle of paper ...... very close to you, like our parents, and we should seek for our sin to return to God. The history and spiritual meaning of the parables represent the influence of Jesus' behaviors. Jesus told the people the parables and led them to think. It cleanses our soul and we understand the behaviors and character of God. These parables cannot be expressed in many words, people must understand and experience them for themselves. Although I am not a Christian, I respect Jesus and admire his spirit. We can understand many concepts about the Christian through the story of Jesus, because we can understand the complicated principles through his simple story. God brings grace and mercy to people, not because of how good we are, but simply because God is kind and generous. No matter what circumstances we find ourselves in, we must remember that there is no one so lost that God cannot save you..
