	History of Christianity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Christianity continued to use the Jewish scriptures (the Tanakh became their Old Testament) and accept such fundamental doctrines of Judaism as monotheism (and thus, in turn, Judaism's sole deity YHWH) and the belief in a moshiach (Hebrew term usually rendered "messiah" in English, which is equivalent to the term "Christ"—Christos in Greek).
