The term Christianity may denote the whole of knowledge imparted by the Creator to people — during the entire history of human existence on Earth — through His Messengers Who are called in different languages by the names Messiah, Christ, Avatar.
However, historically it happened so that this term denotes the Teachings about the Path to Perfection which were given to us by Jesus Christ.
Unfortunately the Teachings of Jesus were many times reduced and perverted due to people’s ignorance, and quite often were turned from Christianity — into anti-Christianity, though called by the same name.
The examples of this are: the “Holy” Inquisition; the Crusades and other kinds of predatory wars launched by “Christian” countries; instilling of hatred, aggression, incredible cruelty toward “infidels” — under the banner of “fighting for the ‘holy’ faith”…
That is why the true Teachings of Jesus Christ have to be distinguished from certain beliefs which are called sometimes “the true Christianity”…
… This site describes how the spiritual Path was and is understood by Jesus Christ, His closest Disciples-Apostles, and some of the spiritual Adepts Who fully realized Jesus’ Teachings.
… The spiritual Path consists of steps.
The first step implies receiving the knowledge about what God is, what the Evolution of the Universal Consciousness is, what constitutes the meaning of human life and how to realize it in the best way.
The second step consists in aligning one’s ethical qualities with the righteousness suggested to us by God.
The third step is work on oneself with the use of esoteric meditative techniques with the purpose of developing oneself as a soul, consciousness — up to that level where one becomes capable of knowing directly the non-incarnate Divine Representatives of the Creator and the Creator Himself, and then — merging with Him.

................
In response to your claims that the God of Christians is really a dragon.. I thought you might want to read what the book of revelations had to say about the red dragon, and who it represents, and how that dragon fought against the woman who was clothed with the son and gave birth to a child .
Could you please show me what Gospel and chapter and verse this is from?

I thought you were this biblical scholar gabby? Why are secular people always asked to provide chapter and verse, and yet when we post quotes taken right out of the Bible, people say we are making it up, or took it out of context. I could show you easy enough, but why don't you look it up instead?
The Dragon is Christianity/Islam, and the Woman is the rest of us on Earth, trying to escape from the Draco, who are running everything from behind the scenes, including your Church. They want our souls, and for some, they already have them. You have fun in your Afterlife, I know I will.

Demons and devils are inhabitants of hell. They can be — according to their previous incarnations — people and animals of various biologic species: monkeys, crocodiles, dogs, rabbits, frogs, etc. Their common feature is that during the last incarnation they enjoyed making harm to other creatures, developed corresponding abilities, and went to hell as a result of this. In this state, God uses them for correcting incarnate people.
Moreover, nudism may become a special component of spiritual work for those who achieved the guna sattva: it helps to strengthen sattvic qualities in people. They indeed become “like children”, as Jesus preached (Matt 18:3; Mark 10:15; Luke 18:17), — in their open and pure relationships with nature, God, with each other. Sexuality then is replaced by a fond, tender, careful attitude toward each other. This emotional situation is very auspicious for the mergence of subtle and loving consciousnesses with each other and with the Holy Spirit, which is very valuable on the spiritual Path.
