Barbara Walters used to ask this of her Celebrities on the many interviews she did over the years. "If you could be a tree, what kind of tree would you be?"

To define Christianity in one word is a ludicrous request much as Barabara's tree question. However, I could give you a verse that best describes God's love for us.

John 3

16"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. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

 

[The Midge]

Grace

 

[Monica02]

Jesus

 

[Asar'el]

Meekness.

Of course, this is with the understanding that you are looking for something other than Christ to describe His followers!

 

[ph4tlewtz]

selflessness.

 

[Shelia]

If there would be one word which for you represents the essence and spirit of the Christian teaching - which word would it be?

MERCY

FORGIVENESS

GRACE

LOVE

PEACE

There are too many wonderful words to describe God and His infinite love.

[SaintGeorge]

metonia (repentance or change of mind and heart in English)

[Diane_Windsor]

My answer is love.

 

[seebs]

I'll stick with "love". But it's not exactly an easy question.

Oh, wait! Better yet: "Christianity!"
