Top Christianity Quizzes & Trivia

Christianity is one of the world's great religions; over 2 billion people, over a third of the world's population, declare themselves to be Christian, although Orthodox, Catholic and Protestant are major divisions within the Christian faith, which also includes a large number of smaller sects and groupings. Based on the teachings of Jesus, as recorded in the new Testament, Christianity has played a very prominent role in the shaping of Western civilization.

Beginning as a sect of Judaism, and becoming the state religion of the Roman Empire in the fourth century, Christianity spread throughout most of Europe in the Middle Ages, and to many parts of the rest of the world during the age of discovery.
