. Explain why Beowulf is not typically considered a Christian poem, even though it contains references to the Bible

Please provide the best answer for the statement.

Some have interpreted the poem as a Christian allegory, and there are references to God and the Almighty throughout—but there is nothing in the poem to suggest that these references are to the Christian God. The poem teaches its audience that power, strength, fame, and life itself are fleeting—a theme consonant with Christian values, but by no means necessarily Christian. And although Beowulf displays a Christ-like willingness to sacrifice himself for the greater good, the honor and courage he exhibits are fully in keeping with the values of feudal warrior culture.
