Christian Definitions

Revelation is God making Himself, His will, and His truth known. Christians believe God reveals Himself through creation, Scripture, and most fully in Jesus Christ.

Grace is God’s undeserved kindness and saving favour. Christians believe sinners are rescued by grace, not by earning acceptance through their own works.

Righteousness means being right with God and living according to His character. In Christianity, true righteousness is received from God and then reflected in a changed life.

Eternal life is more than endless existence. It is knowing God, sharing in the life Christ gives, and living forever with Him.

Doctrine means Christian teaching. It summarises what the Bible teaches about God, humanity, salvation, the church, and the future.

Redemption means being rescued and set free by God. Christians believe Jesus redeems people from sin through His death and resurrection.

Stewardship is the faithful use of what God has entrusted to a person, including time, money, gifts, creation, and influence.

A blessing is God’s favour, goodness, or spoken benefit. In the Bible, blessing is tied to God’s presence, covenant promises, and faithful care.

Fellowship is shared life among believers. It includes worship, encouragement, accountability, prayer, and unity in Christ.

Sin is rebellion against God in thought, desire, word, or action. It separates people from God and shows why salvation is needed.
