The incarnation refers to Jesus as God in human form, fully human and fully divine. Born to the Virgin Mary, Jesus had an extraordinary purpose: to save the world from sin.
Jesus' crucifixion is a pivotal event in Christianity. He was executed for claiming to be the Son of God, taking on the punishment for all human sins.
The resurrection, occurring three days after Jesus' death, demonstrates God's power over death and confirms Jesus' divinity. This event gives Christians hope for their own resurrection.
Definition: Incarnation refers to the belief that Jesus is God in human form.
Quote: "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us" (John 1:14)
Example: The virgin birth of Jesus to Mary exemplifies the miraculous nature of the incarnation.
Christians believe in life after death and a final judgment based on one's actions and faith. The concepts of grace, salvation, redemption, and justification are central to Christian understanding of the afterlife.
The parable of the Sheep and the Goats teaches Christians to care for others and "love thy neighbor" to attain heaven.
Vocabulary:
- Grace: Receiving God's love even when undeserved
- Salvation: Being saved from sin
- Redemption: Being saved from sin and evil by God
- Justification: The act of being good and righteous in God's sight
Quote: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 6:23)
The problem of evil challenges the nature of God, questioning why an omnipotent and benevolent God allows suffering. Two main theodicies address this:
Irenaean Theodicy: Evil exists as a test for humans, and God doesn't interfere to preserve free will.
Augustinian Theodicy: God created a perfect world, and evil's entry was not His doing.
The Sermon on the Mount, particularly the Beatitudes, provides guidance for Christians on how to live and attain heaven.
Definition: A theodicy is an attempt to reconcile the existence of evil with the nature of God.
Quote: "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God" (Matthew 5:9)
Highlight: The problem of evil is a significant philosophical and theological challenge in Christianity, leading to various interpretations and explanations.
This section provides essential quotes for GCSE RE quotes Christianity and Islam and Christianity quotes GCSE AQA paper 1. These quotes cover various aspects of Christian belief, including the nature of God, creation, Jesus' life and death, and the afterlife.
The Apostles' and Nicene Creeds are important statements of Christian belief, summarizing core doctrines.
Quote: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:16)
Highlight: Memorizing key quotes and understanding their context is crucial for success in AQA gcse Religious Studies Christianity past papers.

Christians believe in one omnipotent, benevolent, omniscient, just, and omnipresent God who exists in three forms: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This concept is known as the Trinity.
The creation of the world is described in two key biblical accounts:
Genesis Creation Story: Details God's creation of the world in six days, with the seventh day as a day of rest.
Creation in John 1: Introduces the concept of Logos (the Word), identifying Jesus as pre-existent and present at creation.
Vocabulary: Omnipotent means all-powerful, omniscient means all-knowing, and omnipresent means present everywhere.
Quote: "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth" (Genesis 1:1)
Highlight: The concept of the Trinity is central to Christian belief, emphasizing God's complex nature while maintaining monotheism.
