The Beliefs of Christians About Their Responsibility for the Beginning and End of Their Life
You created every part of me; you put me together in my mothers womb
A main part of the Christian faith believes that God is the giver and
taker of life. He forms us in the womb and takes our life when he
believes the time is right. Some christians believe that Jesus takes
our life when we know were at the best and we won't get any better
spiritually.
God teaches us about the sanctity of life. As christians we should
hold responsibility for the beginning and end of our lives. When one
faces a problem/decision regarding life and death they often refer to
the belief of the sanctity of life.
This is the belief that every life is sacred and is protected by
divine authority. Therefore God being the author and publsiher of life
only he has the authority to decide when it ends.
A human is very limited on the authority and power of taking life. So
issues and choices regarding euthanasia and abortion should not lie in
the human hands. God's love for a human is so great he gave his only
song to die for them
'For God loved the world so much that he gave his only son, so that
everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life'
Therefore to take somebodys life is opposing god's love for that
person. God has a duty and purpose planned for that person and no one
is good enough or has any right in the matter to stop god's plans from
proceeding.
'I chose you before i gave you life, and before you were born i
selected you to be a prophet to the nations'
We are created in god's image and likeness and therefore our bodies
are a temple of god. We must respect it like we respect a church and
christians have a major responsibility to insure that the body is kept
respectable and healthy for the holy spirit to dwell inside.
Give glory to your son, so that your son may glorify you… so that he many give eternal life to all you gave him” (John 17:1-2). He continues, “I consecrate myself for them, so that they also may be consecrated in truth,” (John 17:19). Jesus’ prayer is to bring us into perfection with God, for us to know him, and understand his love for us. This is achieved through God’s loving sacrifice as evidenced in John 3:16, “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life”. Opposite from the notion that we must sacrifice our first born sons for God, God sacrifices his son for us. This is made reality in the passion and suffering of
It is clearly evident that the five principal beliefs in Christianity, the divinity and humanity of Jesus, the death and resurrection of Jesus, the nature of God and the trinity, the revelation and salvation all deeply impact on and influence the lives of its adherents.
“For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.” John 3:17
Though their cities are not physically around the temple, their social and spiritual lives are centered there. With school, religious services, banquets, etc. the whole community of believers sees the temple as a common ground and gathering place. Lastly, even though both the Muslim faith and the Nation of Islam believers cannot eat pork, there are many more restrictions for the Nation. Everything that is white is bad according to their faith.

On the other hand, Christians believe that after you die you go into a period of dormancy and until the second coming of Jesus will you be woken up and decide your fate whether you go to heaven or hell according to how you have lived your life. Christianity teaches salvation from sin through Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Through Him, the gift of eternal life is also attained. Christianity started as a missionary religion and has now become the world's most widespread faith. It focuses on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus.

... loved more than loving others. Hence, we are never satisfied. The only way for a human being to be fully satisfied of love is to be loved by the absolute completeness. The whole representation of love is God and He is perfect. The Son of God, Jesus Christ, was perfect and love, which was how he died on the cross for the sins of others. The ultimate wholeness of love died for the sins of you and me. Christ did not die in order to take benefit from human beings. He is perfect in himself; he does not need mankind to fulfill his completeness. Hence, Christ died on the cross simply because he loves mankind. He loves you and me so much he gave his own life. What greater love is there than the love of Jesus Christ? As much as human beings strongly desire to be loved, why doesn’t one satisfy one’s hunger of love through the ultimate representation of love, Jesus Christ?
He demonstrated His love even when we did not love Him, by first loving us. The LORD demonstrated His love when Jesus came into the world to seek and save the lost. He paid the definitive sacrifice for those He loved. Equally, we are to love sacrificially. It transcends family and encompasses the beloved community.

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." This verse - John 3:16 - is perhaps the most important in the Bible. Jesus Christ was the son of God, but he was also the son of man.
