Christianity is liberal and allows people to question its teachings that's why you see what you call division. Even Jesus did not shut his disciples up from questioning him, neither did he shut other people up from questioning his teachings.
We dont operate like secret cults where the bishop is the grand master whose teachings cannot be questioned. If it were so we would ve had only one bishop controlling every Christian across the globe.

For once, you have finally said something meaningful...
I think relying on the religions of this world are overrated and will never lead us anywhere.
I respect the Bible as it is the most widely used Holy book on earth. According to the Bible, God doesn't recognize any religion on earth except Holiness and Kindness (James 1:27).
So being a religious person has more to do with Who we are and what we do than where we belong.

Ignorance on display.

Usual disjointed nonsense.

There is a difference between a question and open rebellion.
If there are 32,000 doctrinal differences or schisms within one belief system, it automatically implies that belief system is built on falsehoods, individual whims and pretenses that open constant challenges by the believers.

I guess you are completely ignorant and never heard of the Inquisition, or the crusades, or the Albigensian Crusades that exterminated an entire ethnic group ?
All carried out by the church against other beliefs.

Yes.
Mat: 10:35
" Do not assume that I have come to bring peace upon the Earth, No, but a SWORD ".

Luke 12:53
" 'Father will be divided against son and son against father; mother against .... For I have come to turn 'A man against his father, a daughter against her mother, ... "

Now, with just these 2 Bible quotes from Jesus as examples, there is no stronger inspiration and motivation for evil and endless conflict on Earth.

Oh dear God shocked

A sword as mentioned by Christ does not symbolize violence, a sword severs or divides . This simply means that because he came to earth, some children would be set against parents and parents against their children - this is because many who choose to follow Christ are hated by their family members.

Like I always tell atheists , Christ's teachings of love and peace has always suggested to have supported Pacifism .

What about the time Peter attacked Marcus with his sword and Jesus rebuked him and then healed Marcus' severed ear ?

What about the encounter between Jesus and the adulterous woman ? Where his words "He that is without sin among you , should cast the first stone at her ' saved the life of the adulterous woman about to be stoned .

So Sir , you simply misconstrued those particular verses . wink

Sir I've explained what sword means and your choice to reject its all on you .

With your logic , "all the heads of the families gathered at the meeting " should be construed as the individual heads (as in part of the body) were cut and brought to the meeting .

The teacher asked to give him all ears - this means the teacher said we should cut off our ears and give them to him . undecided undecided

I don't believe in any Religion of this world but I believe in God. Atheist are thod the who doesn't believe in the existence of God and I can't afford to be one. A careful observation of the world around you will show that there exist a Supreme being who made certain things to happen the way you see them. To every effects, there's a cause. Even scientists believe this. So pls, don't let the false religions of this world to mislead you into believing that God doesn't exist.

You still dont get it but i will make it more clearer to you this time and leave you to whatever understanding you wish to have about it.

1. Christianity is liberal. its not about denomination but about Christ.
Jesus said - except a man be born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. He didnt say- except a man belong to a particular denomination.

2. there was a time the disciples of Jesus saw a man who was preaching in the name of Jesus and they tried to stop him because he wasnt in their group. when they told Jesus about the man and what they did to him, Jesus rebuked them and said they shouldnt do that. He made it clear to them that he that is not against us is for us. Again you can see that the aim of Jesus about Christianity is not for us to be cage under one denomination.

3. The early churches in the book of Acts of the apostles did not operate under any corporate name as we have it now rather they were identified by their location. For example- The church in Ephesus, the church in Corinth etc. denomination with corporate name wasnt the main thing.

4. The book of Revelation says that those whose names are not written in the book of life will be cast into the lake of fire. It didnt say those who are not members of a denomination.
'
5. Yes over 32,000 denomination preaching about Christ not against Christ. Over 32,000 denomination preaching about the kingdom of God not against it. Zacheus got born again in his house not in a church. Christianity is not about religious dogma, it is about your personal relationship with God. Thats why some people say its not a religion but i dont even care whether its religion or not. The emphasis is on personal relationship with God.

6. yes there may be fake ones among them but by their fruits we shall no them. In almost every facet of life there is fake and original so nothing strange about it.

This didn't answer any of my questions

What Question did this one Answer?


4. The book of Revelation says that those whose names are not written in the book of life will be cast into the lake of fire. It didnt say those who are not members of a denomination.
1)How do u know If ur domination. is Teaching the right thing?

2)Can u Switch ur Church Easily? like maybe start going to Catholic? or Jehovah witness?


5. Yes over 32,000 denomination preaching about Christ not against Christ. Over 32,000 denomination preaching about the kingdom of God not against it.

Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Mat 10:41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if [it were] possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

got born again in his house not in a church. Christianity is not about religious dogma, it is about your personal relationship with God. Thats why some people say its not a religion but i dont even care whether its religion or not. The emphasis is on personal relationship with God.
Pls Where does it Say in the Bible that "Christianity" is a personal relationship with pls I'll need bible reference!

6. yes there may be fake ones among them but by their fruits we shall no them. In almost every facet of life there is fake and original so nothing strange about it.
