Followers:
Followers had a big impact on what the founder said in his messages. that founder would be Jesus that the people followed. he was born in Nazareth. he preached messages to his followers. people that worshiped him ending up in either a good way or a bad way. the good way is that when they followed his rules, they usually would not have anything horrible done to them, but that was sometimes. when Jesus was on his last words, the people that believed in him so much went ballistic. they did not know what to do with their life, and doing so they didn't have a good life for a while. Paul took his place of preaching the messages needed to follow that religion. the affect that the people had started to believe in the messages from Jesus. there are many people that follow today. there about on average two billion people that follow this religion. these religions are usually thought in north America, south America, and Europe.
Founder:
Jesus had done many things for people and people worshiped him in return. after he had thousands of people listening to his messages, rulers and kings started to get mad. so in doing that they wanted him to die because the other religions were not as good in peoples opinions. Jesus was put to death because of the messages he was teaching.these messages started to go to a lot of people throughout the world. the word Christianity is a religion that was formed after Jesus death.
Sacred Texts:
as a result, people called the bible as a holy book or a sacred text. however all of this led to bad complications, the Christan's no longer be lived in his messages because the people who didn't like him tried to make it look like he was a bad person. Paul was a disciple that was putting his messages together to make the holy bible. the bible included the old testament and the new testament. he got people to start reading it to start believing in it. since Jesus was crucified the religion or messages that he preached was called Christianity. in doing so, this led to religious holidays involving his worships. there are five major christian holidays that are mandatory to follow in the christian religion. there is advent, Christmas, Epiphany, lent, and Easter. throughout your life as a christian you go through stages that follow the order of the customs. there is baptism; when you get baptised you get holy water all over you that is blessed by the priest.baptism happens shortly after your birth. then Communion is based on a belief where you receive Christ's body and blood. this leads to other everyday things like praying to the sacred people. all of these rules and holidays are provided in the bible. this is what the christian sacred text contains.
