Christianity

Christianity is an Abrahamic monotheistic religion that professes Jesus Christ as the Son of God and the Messiah, with over 2.4 billion followers worldwide. It has its roots in the 1st century AD, emerging as a Judaic sect in the Roman province of Judaea, and spread throughout the Eastern Mediterranean area despite significant persecution. Christianity began to take shape in the 2nd century AD with the inclusion of Gentiles and the separation from Judaism, and expanded further with the Edict of Milan and the Council of Nicaea, eventually becoming the state religion of the Roman Empire.learn more on wikipedia
