Christian faith

Following Jesus Christ

Christian faith is belief in the teachings of Christianity—that Jesus Christ is the son of God, died for humanity's sins, and rose from the dead.

The term emphasizes personal conviction over institutional religion: Her Christian faith sustained her through illness.

It can refer to Christianity collectively: the Christian faith teaches forgiveness.
