Was it in a little town in Bethlehem, just as the lyrics of our favorite Christmas songs contend?<\/p>\n<p>Did Christianity start immediately after the Sermon on the Mount? After the crucifixion? The resurrection? Or did Christianity take a little more time than that? Was there a larger coalescing of concepts and ideas at work?<\/p>\n<p>In truth, in the earliest days of Christianity, when Peter and Paul first set out to preach the gospel, the belief systems of early Christians were viewed as merely a new sect of Judaism. The appellation of \u201cChristian\u201d was a term developed by outside antagonists, which the so-called Christians wore with pride. It took time for Christianity to be fully cleaved away from its mother religion of Judaism.<\/p>\n<p>A council was held in Jerusalem around 50 CE for the early church leaders to decide what would become the fundamentals of the new faith, such as what old rules and regulations from the Old Testament should remain for new believers. From Christianity\u2019s earliest formation as a separate identity, it began to spread across the known world. The early Christians met in underground churches and, at times, even in graveyards to avoid persecution.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, their very secrecy often spurned the wildest of rumors. It got to the point where Communion was even mistaken as an act of cannibalism! This led to the rise of Christian apologists, who were tasked with explaining the most fundamental elements to the lay public.<\/p>\n<p>This book explores all of these aspects of early Christianity and more. In this book, you will learn about the following:The ministry of JesusWho first spread the gospelEarly Christian outreach to the Greco-Roman worldChristian Gnosticism, Manicheism, and other Christian sectsThe struggle of Christian apologistsThe early martyrs of the Christian faithThe impact of the Council of NicaeaHow the church survived the fall of the Roman EmpireAnd much, much more!<br \/>Click the \u201cadd to cart\u201d button to begin learning more about early Christianity!    <br \/> <br \/>\n         From the Publisher            <\/p>\n<p>                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Christian History; History; Christianity; Jesus; Apostles; Christian Church; Judaism; Gnostic; \" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media\/kdp\/44d27989-2180-4bbc-89ce-33fce6248280.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Christian History; History; Christianity; Jesus; Apostles; Christian Church; Judaism; Gnostic; \" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media\/kdp\/44d27989-2180-4bbc-89ce-33fce6248280.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.png\">   <\/p>\n<p class=\"apm-text-center\">\n                                              <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Christian History; History; Christianity; Jesus; Apostles; Christian Church; Judaism; Gnostic; \" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-spacing-mini a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media\/kdp\/d354f978-396b-44a9-ae8f-17ad889bd613.__CR0,0,300,300_PT0_SX300_V1___.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Christian History; History; Christianity; Jesus; Apostles; Christian Church; Judaism; Gnostic; \" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media\/kdp\/d354f978-396b-44a9-ae8f-17ad889bd613.__CR0,0,300,300_PT0_SX300_V1___.png\">   <\/p>\n<p>                                                    Building Concrete Religious Context                                        <\/p>\n<p> Jesus\u2019 birth and subsequent life have been theorized about in numerous accounts.
