Well, even in the Bible, people sang praises to God. So I guess that was how Christian music evolved.

Answer . Prior to Constantine, Christianity was a minor sect of Judaism. In reality, the Christianity that Constantine created was little more than a blending of the many belief systems of Europe at the time. Ancient Christianity was mostly a form of liberal Judaism, but Constantine blended Judaism… with the "virgin Mary" who represented the "Earth Mother" that was a basis of one of the old European belief systems. Easter was a celebration of the Spring Festival which celebrated the return of the Sun. Christmas was a celebration of the Europeans who observed that the Sun started it's southward trip slightly after the Winter Solstice, so Christmas was Winter Festival. Christianity is just a blending that has become ritualized. . Some would argue that Christianity began with the teachings of Jesus. Answer . Paul and his gentile followers; Acts 11:26 And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch. Answer . Christianity arose about 2000 years ago with the teachings of Jesus in and around Israel. Christianity expanded considerably under the influence of Paul and his contemporaries. Answer . There's not an exact date but since the start of time like it started with Adam and Eve. . ANSWER . It is hard to establish a definitive time when the community centered around Jesus became distinct enough from the surrounding Jewish community to be considered its own religion, i.e. Christianity. What you have is a dynamic and growing faith community which is fast outgrowing its Jewish roots because 1. The majority of Jews did not see Jesus as the Messiah, and 2. A syncretism of Hellenistic religious beliefs were being promulgated by Paul as he was proclaiming Jesus to the majority pagan culture trying to use terms they would understand to express this great mystery of God as he understood it, namely his own experience of Jesus' saving power that he experienced when he was knocked off his horse on the road to Damascus. At some point the diverse communities started trying to understand how they related to one another. Perhaps the Council of Jerusalem in 50 AD when the Jesus community tackled the question of circumcision for non-Jewish followers of Jesus could be seen as the start of Christianity. Of course, one wonders if gnostic Christians were a part of this group or if they came later. Another and highly related question would be when did the emphasis shift from Jesus of Nazareth as rabbi/healer to Jesus the Christ and later to the dominant trinitarian views about the Godhead? And how are we moderns interpreting Jesus nowadays in diverse ways yet still being authentic to Him so that we can feel the power of God working in our lives? Answer . When Christ died on the cross and rose again. Answer . At the birth of Christ our Lord, Jesus. . in the beginning when God created the heavens and the earth! . Historically, I suppose it would be when he decided he was the Messiah and convinced others that was the case. According to the Christian Gospels, this would appear to be at his baptism so around 23-28 AD. . In 33 AD at Pentecost in Jerusalem . Its hard to say when Christianity was formed. As most believers in the world will tell you, Christianity was created by Jesus Christ Himself. Jesus died to save us all and forgive our sins. In essence Christianity is an amalgamation of other religions from the region. Jewish, Egyptian, Pagan, Mesopotamian and so on. Answer . Well, Jews believe that the Messiah (Jesus) has not yet come. Christians believe that Jesus has come. So, if you are a Jew and then Jesus came to Earth, you would then be known as a Christian, not a Jew. So Christianity basically started when Jesus was born which I guess was at 0000 A.D. (2009 years ago which can be rounded to 2000). So, Christianity began around 2000 years ago. Christianity originated in 0. in the early 300 B.C ( Full Answer )

Christianity is the act of following Christ. Jesus became 'The Christ' or anointed one when he was baptised in 29CE. His followers became known as 'Christians'. However the roots of Christianity dates back to the bible book of Genesis. In chapter 22 verse 18 it says 'And by means of your seed all na…tions of the earth will bless themselves...' this was Jehovah God promising Abraham, and by means of the inspired scriptures, mankind, that one would come in his name to right the wrongs that had been inflicted upon mankind by Satan the Devil. In other words, the Christ, Jesus. ( Full Answer )

It began under the Roman Empire. At first, Rome was greatly intolerant of Christian belief, and some Emperors persecuted Christians ruthlessly. The Emperors Caligula and Nero used Christian captives as victims for the gladiatorial arenas, forcing them to fight each other or heavily armed gladiators,… or to combat wild beasts. At other times, they were burned alive as human torches, or subjected to mass drownings. To be a Christian during such times was very dangerous- services of worship had to be held in secret, and anti-Christian laws were passed, similar to what happened to Jews in Hitler's Germany.. However, as time went on, Christians came to be tolerated, and even respected for their bravery under persecution. Roman soldiers in particular admired the stoicism endured by Christian devotees under persecution, for they were battle-hardened men who recognised true courage when they saw it. Eventually, persecution ceased, the laws were repealed, and Christianity and the old Roman religions co-existed for a long time. Converts were free to change from one religion to another as they pleased, with more and more Romans becoming confirmed as Christian. The first Christian Emperor was Constantine I, who ruled from 306-37 AD; as time went on, and the old Roman Empire mutated into the Byzantine Empire, the vast majority of it's peoples became Christian. The old religions were never abolished or banned- they just faded from being practiced. ( Full Answer )

Gregorian Chant . I think David because he made most of the book Psalms, and Psalms are pretty much songs about God.
Christianity began when Jesus gave his disciples what is called theGreat Commission, which says to go out into all the world andpreach the gospel (or good news) to everyone. This began to beimplemented when the obedient followers received the Holy Spirit atPentecost, as Jesus had promised. This 'Pow…er from on high' wasspecifically promised for the purpose of fulfilling Jesus' GreatCommission. Matthew 28:18-20 (King James Version) 18And Jesus cameand spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heavenand in earth. 19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations , baptizing them inthe name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commandedyou: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.Amen. Acts 1:8 (King James Version) 8But ye shall receive power,after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea, and inSamaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. Various other views: . The Christian religion originated from Jesus Christ and wasstarted in the Middle East. It started with Jesus. After he died onthe cross, the remaining apostles spread out and started churchesin places like Rome, Greece, Egypt, and Iraq. . Constantine wanted to unite Europe and did so by combining manyof the regional religions. It just happens that there was a smallJewish sect that he believed would draw in the Jews to his"universal" European religion. The spring festival of thoseEuropean religions became Easter. The Winter Festivals becameChristmas. The origin of Christianity was strictly a function ofpolitics. The resulting religion was called "Catholic", meaning universal,and everyone was instructed to convert. Reports are thatConstantine never joined his universal religion, but was baptizedwithout his permission while on his deathbed. . It is believed that Christianity stared at the birth of Christ.Actually, of course, Adam was the first Christian as were all ofthe early saints before the birth of Christ who believed upon Hisname. . Christianity was invented by Paul. As to his influence, thereare considerable differences of scholarly opinion concerning howfar Paul did in fact influence Christian doctrine. Among the mostradical is G.A. Wells, a professor of German, whose view is thatJesus was a mythical figure and that Christianity was in good partinvented by Paul. Wikipedia.org/Pauline Christianity* . Christianity wasn't just randomly started. It all starts fromJesus Christ. When Jesus died for everyone, He rose 3 days laterand told his remaining 11 of 12 disciples to spread the word thatHe saved everyone. Thus it was called Christianity. *A form of Marcion Heresy, circa 110-160, which rejects the entireOld Testament and all but the writings of Paul in the NewTestament, including the commonly accepted four Gospels, yetincludes Marcion's own version of the Gospels. The Early ChurchFathers roundly condemned the Marcion heresy. Another answer: While the New Testament writers indicate that there were a numberof false claims about Christianity, they all agreed, including the12 Apostles, that Jesus Christ had risen from the dead and ascendedup to heaven. Peter, Paul and John, in their teaching, agreed withthe Old Testament, where over 300 prophesies came true aboutChrist, which is the Greek word for the Hebrew, Messiah. Christianity began in God's mind, before the foundation of theworld. God had planned on the redemption of man (buying back fromsin's consequences) before man was created. This is maintained bythe writers of Scripture, who were led by the Holy Spirit to writewhat God had desired. Things like: "they gave for my price thirty pieces of silver,""they part my garments among them and cast lots upon my vesture,""But thou Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among thethousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall He come forth unto methat is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from ofold, from everlasting," demonstrate only a few of the Old Testamentprophecies, which came true with extreme accuracy. God knew what Hewould do with His Son, allowing Him to die for our sins, yetresurrecting Him in holy justice for the Christan's victory. Christianity (the fulfillment of God's promises) was inaugurated onthe Day of Pentecost, after Christ had ascended to heaven. See Acts1 & 2, KJV. There were 3000 souls that received Christ as theirSavior from sin n that day. This probably by custom only countedthe men, as indicated also in Acts 4:4, "Howbeit many of them whichheard the Word believed; and the number of the men were about fivethousand." In just a few weeks, conservatively, there were about25,000 Christians in Jerusalem. The name Christian, originally considered to be a slanderous namefor believers in Christ, was first assessed of those in the churchat Antioch of Syria. Yet it was appropriate for those who were"Christ followers." Another answer: Jesus did not necessarily start a new religion; he was a practicingJew. His followers eventually "broke off" from Judaism and starteda new "religion" (or faith). When Jesus, The Christ was of age and began teaching and preachingthe gospel, the people that believed Jesus (and all that he taughtand said) -- these people are Christians; although the Jews werethe chosen people. Answer2: Early Christianity a Way of Life Jesus said to his followers: "You are my friends if you do what Iam commanding you." ( John 15:14 ) Since Jesus' teachingsaffected all aspects of their lives, Christ's disciples initiallyreferred to their religion as "The Way." ( Acts 9:2 ) Soon thereafter, "[they]were by divine providence called Christians." ( Acts 11:26 ) This new name they boremeant that they believed that Jesus was the Son of God, who hadtransmitted to mankind the will of his heavenly Father. This beliefled them to follow a way of life that differed from that of theworld around them. Christ's teachings moved his followers to follow Bible teachings,which meant avoiding "fornication, uncleanness, loose conduct,idolatry, practice of spiritism, enmities, strife, jealousy, fitsof anger, contentions, . . . drunken bouts, revelries, and thingslike these." ( Galatians5:19-21; Ephesians4:17-24 ) The apostle Paul reminded Corinthian Christians thatsome of them had once practiced these very things. Then he added:"But you have been washed clean, but you have been sanctified, butyou have been declared righteous in the name of our Lord JesusChrist."- 1 Corinthians6:9-11 . E. W. Barnes relates in his book The Rise of Christianity : "In its early authoritativedocuments the Christian movement is represented as essentiallymoral and law-abiding. Its members desired to be good citizens andloyal subjects. They shunned the failings and vices of paganism. Inprivate life they sought to be peaceful neighbours and trustworthyfriends. They were taught to be sober, industrious andclean-living. Amid prevailing corruption and licentiousness theywere, if loyal to their principles, honest and truthful. Theirsexual standards were high: the marriage tie was respected andfamily life was pure." Such were aspects of being a Christian inthe early days. Another distinctive sign of early Christianity was its zealousevangelizing work. Christ commanded his followers: "Go thereforeand make disciples of people of all the nations." ( Matthew 28:19, 20 ) JeanBernardi, a professor at the Sorbonne University in Paris, France,noted: "[Christians] were to go out and speak everywhere and toeveryone. On the highways and in the cities, on the public squaresand in the homes. Welcome or unwelcome. To the poor, and to therich encumbered by their possessions. . . . They had to take to theroad, board ships, and go to the ends of the earth." (Taken from(4/07 Awake on Jehovah's Witnesses official website) ( Full Answer )
Philo of Alexandria writes in AD 10 that communities of Christians are all over the Roman Empire. Eusebius, Augustine, Tertullian and Clement of Alexandria all confirm that there were Christians before the first century and that Philo's "Thereputes" were indeed Christians. So Christianity has to …have begun sometime in the 1st or second century BC. Probably when the Pharisees were persecuted and exiled from Judea under the reign of Alexander Jannaeus 103-76 BC. Of course, they weren't called Christians until sometime in the middle of the second century. Minucius Felix and Justin Martyr both testify that in their day, Christians are so called because they are anointed, "Christ" meaning "anointed one". ( Full Answer )

The Christian religion, named after Christ, began sometime in the early first century AD. The teachings were spread by the apostles who went forth to "teach all nations".
Jesus provided much of the teachings that Christians now use to define their religion, and apparently established the first Christian leaders. Beyond citing much of Christian history as related through the New Testament, there is little to say except "he started it".
Most of the Pauline Epistles of the New Testament were written toChurches in the Hellenistic countries of Galatia, Macedonia, andAchaia. The Galatians had many large cities within their countrywhich also have Epistles named after these cities. This region is currently known as Turkey and Greece, bu…t was alsoknown as the Byzantine region, held captive by the Roman Empireduring the apostles evangelism throughout the Mediterranean region. The Hellenistic Empire or Macedonian Empire, was the Old Testamentname for the region. Jews who embraced the Empire became known asHellenistic Jews. These Hellenistic Jews translated theirSemitic-Hebrew and Semitic-Aramaic canonical books into the nativeKoine of the Hellenistic Empire, into what is now known as theSeptuagint. The Hellenistic Jews within the Jewish OrthodoxChurches who converted to Christianity in this same region, werethe first Orthodox Christian Churches; which canonized the Gospelsand Epistles written by the Apostle to the surrounding regionalChurches. Modern revisions to Greek and Syriac became the 4th generation oftranslations, following the 3rd generation Koine Septuagint, 2ndgeneration Semitic-Hebrew/Aramaic, and 1st generation Semitic. The 5th generation, Vetus Latina became the first acceptable Latintranslation(s) until replaced by St. Jerome who developed the 6thgeneration Classical Latin Vulgate. No known Hellenistic Latin(Archaic Latin) translations seem to exist, with the predominantusage of Hellenistic Koine as the written language of choice. I use the term generation loosely as each of these generations mayexceed hundreds (Hebrew, Aramaic, or Greek variations) if notthousands of years (Semitic variations). ( Full Answer )

A: Two important stories of early persecution were the executions of Peter and Paul in Rome, under the orders of Emperor Nero in 64 CE. The problem with these stories is that they only surfaced in the second century - the executions probably never happened. Undoubtedly, Emperor Nero blamed the Chr…istians of Rome for the Great Fire of Rome, probably unfairly, but by ancient standards such accusations scarcely amounted to persecution. It is possible that Domitian (81-96) sanctioned persection of Christians, although Edward Gibbon ( The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire ) says that any persecution that took place must have been of no long duration. An exchange of letters between Pliny the Younger and the Emperor Trajan regarding the regulation of trials involving those accused of being Christians, in about 112, is illuminating first because Pliny seems unaware of any previous trials of Christians and secondly because neither Nero, Domitian nor any previous emperor could have issued an edict or set any imperial precedent for the official persecution of Christians. The available evidence suggests that the first emperor to encourage persecution of Christians was Decius (249-251). Both before and after the time of Decius, there undoubtedly were outbreaks of localised persecution, but the third-century Church Father, Origen, writing ( Contra Celsum , 3.8) of the total of Christian martyrs up to his own time, in Rome and elsewhere, states that there were not many - and that it was easy to count them. The great tradition of Christianity that very large numbers of early Christians suffered terrible fates under the pagan emperors must have come from somewhere. We know that the Christian emperors and bishops from the fourth century onwards did engage in terrible persecutions of the pagans in an attempt to eliminate that religion, and Edward Gibbon ( The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire ) links the Christian tradition of pagan persecution to this. In his words, the ecclesiastical writers of the fourth or fifth centuries ascribed to the magistrates of Rome the same degree of implacable and unrelenting zeal which filled their own breasts against the heretics or the idolaters of their own times.

the 5 elements of music Elements of art From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The elements of art are a commonly used group of aspects of a work of art used in teaching and analysis, in combination with the principles of art , objects placed at a distances are rendered with less details, cl…arity, and intensity than the closer ones. Three-dimensional space work is created with the help of shading, which gives it a feeling of depth. Space can also be created by overlapping objects . Contents [ hide ] . 1 Texture 2 Form 3 Space 4 Shape 5 Color 6 Tone (Value) 7 Size 8 Line 9 See also 10 References . [ edit ]Texture The texture is the quality of a surface or the way any work of art is represented. Lines and shading can be used to create different textures as well. For example, if one is portraying certain fabrics, one needs to give the feeling of the right texture so that it closely resembles what the artist is trying to convey. It can be implied or real. What you can feel with your sense of touch. Texture is the surface treatment of an artistic work in order to give variety and beauty to any work of art. [ edit ]Form Form may be created by the forming of two or more shapes or as three-dimensional shape (cube, pyramid, sphere, cylinder, etc.). It may be enhanced by tone, texture and color. Form is considered three-dimensional showing height, width and depth. Examples of these are sculpture, theatre play and figurines. Form is the external appearance of a clearly defined area. [ edit ]Space Space is the area provided for a particular purpose. Space includes the background, foreground and middle ground. Space refers to the distances or areas around, between or within components of a piece. There are two types of space: positive and negative space. Positive space refers to the space of a shape representing the subject matter. Negative space refers to the space around and between the subject matter. Space is also defined as the distance between identifiable points or planes in a work of art. [ edit ]Shape Shape pertains to the use of areas in two dimensional space that can be defined by edges, setting one flat specific space apart from another. Shapes can be geometric (e.g.: square, circle, hexagon, etc.) or organic (such as the shape of a puddle, blob, leaf, boomerang, etc.) Shapes are defined by other elements of art: Space, Line, Texture, Value, Color, Form. [ edit ]Color Color pertains to the use of hue in artwork and design. Defined as primary colors (red, yellow, blue) which cannot be mixed in pigment from other hues, secondary colors (green, orange, violet) which are directly mixed from combinations of primary colors. Further combinations of primary and secondary colors create tertiary (and more) hues. Tint and Shade are references to adding variations in Value ; other tertiary colors are derived by mixing either a primary or secondary color with a neutral color. e.g. Red + White = Pink. Color is the quality of an object or substance with respect to the one reflected by it, and usually determined visually by measurement of hue, saturation and brightness of the reflected light. [ edit ]Tone (Value) Value, or tone, refers to the use of light and dark, shade and highlight, in an artwork. Some people also refer the lightness and darkness in an artwork as tints(light) and shades(dark). Black-and-white photography depends entirely on value to define its subjects. Value is directly related to contrast. Value is the relative degree of lightness in the graphic work of art or painting. [ edit ]Size Size refers to variations in the proportions of objects, lines or shapes. There is a variation of sizes in objects either real or imagined. (some sources list Proportion/Scale as a Principle of Design) These elements are used to create the Principles of Design. Principles are the results of using the Elements. When you are working in a particular format (size and shape of the work surface) the principles are used to create interest, harmony and unity to the elements that you are using. You can use the Principles of design to check your composition to see if it has good structure. [ edit ]Line Line is defined as a mark that spans a distance between two points (or the path of a moving point), taking any form along the way. As an art element, line pertains to the use of various marks, outlines and implied lines in artwork and design, most often used to define shape in two-dimensional work. Implied line is the path that the viewer's eye takes as it follows shapes, colors, and form along a path, but may not be continuous or physically connected, such as the line created by a dancer's arms, torso, and legs when performing an arabesque. Line is an element of art that is simplest, most ancient, and most universal means for creating visual arts. [ edit ]See also Design elements and principles Formalism (art) [ edit ] . ( Full Answer )
