Are Christians monotheists and what is the nature of Jesus? (i.e. Give me the basics of Christianity please) [closed]

Question

I am not familiar with Christianity so I have some questions.

1- Is Jesus one and only god? I have read some other questions and answers and I have found that there is a real God and Jesus is his son and Jesus is also a god. Isn't it illogical I mean there are 2 god and they have infinite power.

2- Is there any other god except two of them?

3- If Jesus is a God then how people killed him? Why he let people to kill?

4- How jesus was born? Is real god create him? If answer is yes can he create more gods?

These are my questions for now. Sorry for my english.

Answer 1

^{This answer will mostly link to other answers already on the site - please understand that I'm really taking this as a basic "Give me the basics of Christianity." Please understand, normally this would be off-topic, as we are really more geared to experts, but I think having one basic answer here is helpful.}

This answer really needs to explain the two big points of Christianity:

1. What is the Nature of God, and
2. What is the Nature of Jesus.

These two things are both as basic as it gets and hard to understand for non-Christians. As such, putting them in one place helps to define what Christians believe.

^{Note: This is stuff that all Nicene (read "Mainstream") Christians - Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant believe at one level (+ or - a few very small fringe groups <2%) at a basic level, although there may be nuances in the particulars. The only real exceptions are those deemed 'heretical' since 325 or a few modern splinter groups, of which the Jehovah's Witness and LDS churches would be the largest outliers.}

What is the Nature of God? (Answer: Trinitarian)

1- Is Jesus one and only god?

In classic, Nicene Christianity, we believe in "The Trinity," namely that God the Father, God the Son (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit are three persons but also one. While it seems illogical, it's not really - it's just that there is no good metaphor to explain it. The Athansian Creed puts it as such:

"we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity; Neither confounding the Persons; nor dividing the Essence. For there is one Person of the Father; another of the Son; and another of the Holy Ghost. But the Godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, is all one; the Glory equal, the Majesty coeternal."

Is God Three or One?

2- Is there any other god except two of them?

Again, please see what the Trinity is - it isn't two (or three) but one, even though they have different personalities.

What is the Nature of Jesus? (Christology) (Answer: Hypostatic Union)

3- If Jesus is a God then how people killed him? Why he let people to kill?

Classically, Jesus is "fully god and fully man". If he is not God, then he has sins of his own for which he must pay. If he is not man, he is not an acceptable sacrifice. As both God and man, he can subject himself to death as He desires, and overcome it as well.

As to 'why did he let them kill him?' The classic answer is John 3:16 -

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosever should believe in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Along with that are several models of salvation, all of which seek to answer why it is that God required the death of his son to "satisfy" or "atone for" the sins of a fallen humanity, or if there was simple some "victory" that had to be won.

4- How jesus was born? Is real god create him? If answer is yes can he create more gods?

Jesus wasn't "born" he was begotten. Per John 1, He was from the beginning - and "without Him was nothing made that was made." He was incarnated - meaning he became man - in Palestine around 4BC, lived, died on a cross, and was resurrected.

He sent the Holy Spirit, but does not "beget" more gods because God already is - he is eternal.

Answer 2

Christianity for beginners

Christianity is a monotheistic religion. There is only one God and He has three parts/personalities - Father, Word and Spirit. God created everything through the Word and by the power of the Spirit. The last and most important creation recorded in the Bible was Adam and Eve, the first couple on earth. They disobeyed God's warning by eating a forbidden fruit, motivated by the tempting words of a serpent. Sin and Death entered the world through them and everyone born from them are now sinful. Man was perfect at the creation but now is sinful and cannot change himself.

God then selected the descendants of Abraham the patriarch and promised them through many prophets that He will send a deliverer, the Messiah. God then sent His Word as the Messiah and call Him His Son, who was born from a virgin and was given a human name, Jesus. Jesus fulfilled the prophecies by dying on the cross for us. Jesus gave His life for us to pay the penalty of our sins because the penalty for sin is death. God raised Jesus from the dead after three days and is now sitting at the right hand of God, interceding for us and acts as a mediator between God and man.

Jesus will come again to judge the world and gather those who believe in Him to Heaven. There will be a Judgement Day for all souls and those who believe Jesus will enter Heaven and those who don't will be thrown into the Lake of Fire. After this, God will destroy the earth and create a new earth, far far better than the present one and those justified through Jesus will live there forever.
