    The Greek term for Monotheist is monos, which mean one, and theos, which means god. The Christian worldview also lives currently in New Testament. The New Testament is a reliable internal and external evidence of biblical truths. Through eyewitness and testimonies in the Old Testament we can confirm that Jesus is the son of God and that he was sent to live an earthly life to perform miracles and die for our sins, so that we can be free and have a way to salvation through Him. Christians believe Jesus was crucified and rose again after three…

    Judaism is the oldest of the monotheistic religions, and its history is heavily connected to the history of the Jewish people themselves. Its story begins with the original agreement made between Abraham and God, circa 1900 BCE, when Abraham was called to leave his home in Ur and migrate to Cannan (later known as Palestine and Israel), a land God promised to give to his descendants. The second and chief agreement was made 450 years later when Moses led the Jews out of slavery in Egypt (the exodus) back to the lands of Canaan. At Mt Horeb (Sinai), God gave the Jewish people the 10 Commandants and other rules to live by (contained in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible), marking the beginning of Judaism as a structured religion. Jewish civilisation after the mass migration thrived in the kingdoms of Israel and Judah, initially headed by effective lords like Saul, David and Solomon, who built the first great temple in Jerusalem.…

    "Christianity started out in Palestine as a fellowship; it moved to Greece and became a philosophy; it moved to Italy and became an institution; it moved to Europe and became a culture; it came to America and became an enterprise" as stated by theological scholar Sam Pascoe. Throughout Christianity’s journey they have come across ties with the religions Judaism and Islam. There are few similarities between the three major religions. One similarity is that Abraham is viewed the same between all three religions. The only other similarity is that all 3 religions believe in a God, just in different ways. There are much more similar theological aspects of the religions when Christianity is compared to Islam itself and Judaism alone.…

    The symbol of Judaism is the Star of David. Judaism originated in the Middle East over 3500 years ago. It was founded by Moses, although Jews trace their history back to Abraham. Jews believe that there is a single God who not only created the universe, but with whom every Jew can have an individual and personal relationship. They believe that God continues to work in the world, affecting everything that people do. The Jewish relationship with God is a covenant relationship. In exchange for the many good deeds that God has done and continues to do for the Jewish People...The Jews keep God's laws. The Jews seek to bring holiness into every aspect of their lives.
