Christianity

Wait a minute; I thought we were doing a deity worship series? Why are we going over Christianity when this is about witchcraft?

Fascinatingly, this is a branch of Christian witchcraft and different practices. Since it's a potential spiritual path for you to explore, I've done some research on how it works. Here's my findings:

Origins

Originally developed from Judaism, Christianity is a monotheistic-based religion. It centers around the life, teachings, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Beliefs

Christians believe in one God who also exists as the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost in a trinity. They also have a firm belief in Jesus Christ sacrificing his life for the sins of all mankind.

As a unit, Christians adhere to the Bible's teachings and the Ten Commandments, which were written with the finger of God during Moses' Sermon on the Mount. They are:
  1. You shall have no other gods before Me.
  2. You shall not make yourself any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the Earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. You shall not bow down yourself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD your God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me; and showing mercy to thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.
  3. You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that takes his name in vain.
  4. Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shall thou labor, and do all your work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD your God: in it you shall not do any work, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your manservant, nor your maidservant, nor your cattle, nor your stranger that is within your gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: therefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.
  5. Honor your father and your mother: that your days may be long upon the land which the LORD your God gives you. [see: corban]
  6. You shall not murder.
  7. You shall not commit adultery.
  8. You shall not steal.
  9. You shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
  10. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house, you shall not covet thy neighbor’s wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbor’s.
There are many branches of Christianity that have been created. Here's a few:
  • Roman Catholicism
  • Baptists
  • Presbyterian
  • Protestant
  • Jehovah's Witness
  • Morman/ The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
  • Evangelical
  • Church of the Nazarene
  • Mennonite
  • Quaker

practices

Their primary tool of worship is the Bible, which follows the lives of many disciples of Christ, Christ himself, and other stories that intertwine with God.

A common practice is to attend a church with a congregation at least once a week, most often on Sunday, where a pastor or preacher gives a sermon from the Bible.

Some practices meet more than once a week for Bible study, missionary meetings, and the like. Some, like Jehovah's Witnesses for example, attend yearly or bi-yearly conventions for a few days. There conventions hold water baptisms, Biblical reenactments and plays, discussions, and talks or lessons from the Bible. 

There are popular times of the year for celebration, such as the Memorial of Jesus' Resurrection, Easter, Ash Sunday, Good Friday, and Christmas.

Prayer is the most common ritual among Christians and is used as a daily practice. Prayer is also used when with a congregation during meetings.

Some Christians have an altar with a statue of Jesus or the Virgin Mary in their home. However, some do not worship idols and consider it a sin to do so, such as Jehovah's Witness.

Origins of Christian Wicca

Christian Wicca, or Trinitarian Wicca, is a practice that's based on American Wicca and is grouped into Paganism. It uses a Christian Pantheon, uses the Wiccan Rede, and celebrates the same sabbats and esbats as other Wiccans do.

It's strictly matriarchal-based and Goddess inclusive.

It was created in the 1990s due to some Christians wanting to practice their religion along with witchcraft. The practitioners are secretive and, for the most part, not interested in conversion.

There is controversy due to the term "Christian witch" between Christian and Wiccan groups as it's naturally contradictive.
