Christianity is a monotheistic religion centered on the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, which teaches that Jesus is the Son of God and the Messiah prophesied. The core Christian belief is that, through the death and resurrection of Jesus, sinful humans can be reconciled to God and thereby are offered salvation and the promise of eternal life. Also, through faith in Jesus, one can be saved from sin and eternal death. Christians consider the resurrection of Jesus to be the cornerstone of their faith and the most important event in human history. Christianity is one of the world's largest religions with an estimated number of followers that ranges between 1.5 and 2.1 billion. It is the predominant religion in Europe, the Americas, South Africa, and the Philippines. Photo dated: 2006.
