The War Against Christianity....by Christians by raphieMontella: 4:32pm On Sep 11, 2016 |
There are many christian groups that have evaluated other christian groups to be misguided,,blasphemous,,destined for hell etc..This of course leaves one wondering how this religion could have been supposedly guided by a God,his son and a supernatural inspirator(The holy spirit)... . In christianity... The Mormons(church of lattter day saints) say that they are the only true church and other churches are false.. Today Mormons forbid their members from reading any religious book that is not personally approved by their church leadership via a special process called “correlation.”. . The Roman Catholic Church says that all the other churches of Christendom are in error; are divided on questions of doctrine; are given over to leaders who are not true shepherds; and doomed to damnation as heretics!. .The Lutheran,Baptist,Methodist and other Protestant churches say the Roman Catholic Church is pagan; idolatrous; anti-scripture; in error; and of satanic origin!. . Baptists say that the “infant sprinklers,” they have no remission of sins, and are “damned!”. . Seventh Day Adventists say the Sunday consecrators have changed the true Sabbath for the pagan “day of the Sun” and are therefore condemned!. . The Sunday keeping churches say that the Adventists was founded by a false prophetess and that she and her followers are “damned”!. . The Unitarians say the followers of the trinity are idol worshippers; that the trinity is a pagan,idolatrous concept, taken over from other religions.. . Trinitarians say the Unitarians are ''condemned'' by the literal teachings of the “New testament” because they do not take the ‘new testament’ literally.. . Jehovah’s Witness’ claim that all other churches and sects are apostates; demonic; agents of Babylon―Rome and Satan etc.!. . Other churches say “Jehovah”s Witnesses” movement was founded by false prophets;that it mistranslates and misinterprets scripture just to prove its own erroneous doctrines!. . The Christadelphians proclaim that all other Christians are in error: that they do not understand the true meaning of the “Bible”; they believe in fallacy; and are not “true believers”!. . The Pentecostal groups say all other churches are spiritually dead!. Within the pentecostal group..various sects disagree on many issues.. Some say ''females wearing trousers'' is demonic;of the devil and is doing so is a criteria for hell..some disagree.. Some say wearing of ''make ups'',,''earrings'',, are of the devil,,leading to hell and God hates it while some disagree.. Some say putting on anything by females like ''attachments'',,''wigs'' other ones natural hair is sinful and of course leads to hell .Some say women are be allowed to partake in the core affairs of the church and have no authority over men and women who do so are hell-bound..some disagree. . While Other churches say the “Pentecostals” are possessed by “lying spirits” and are under the influence of mass hysteria!.... .Seriously can a singular non-contradictory ominipotent ''holy spirit'' give such contradictory doctrines to its follower? If a God who intervenes in human affairs constantly had actually sent his son to commit suicide and sent his holy spirit to inspire followers and start up a church post-Jesus,,christianity would have only only one denomination in a singular dogma as it is a singular spirit who does this inspiration..

Historically who's right who's wrong. I'd say the Catholics "to the best of my knowledge" but they've being involved in one too many atrocities in the past that other branches had to spill out to save name. Because language is ambiguous and scripture always has a loose translation therefore we have the varying doctrines. Everybody just interpreted to the best of their understanding. |

raphieMontella:You couldn't have said it better. Just like we have each religion claiming to be the only way to God, we have the sun religions claiming to be the right ones too. I wish we could have an intelligent discussion about this world wide and reach a conclusion about what's right and what's wrong after all our goal is common. But who am I kidding.

raphieMontella:*Let me play advocate*... Capitalists, socialists, communists,nationalists, fascists, etc disagree on how a society should make progress; does this mean a society cannot make progress? Christians denominations disagree on a whole lot of issues; but they all agree on one thing; belief in the death and resurrection of Jesus as the sole requirement for salvation. All other things are just, well, other things. 1 Like |

The fact that many factions exist within Christianity was clearly prophesied by the Bible. Among all those churches you listed, there is only one that abides strictly by the Bible. |

Re: The War Against Christianity....by Christians by raphieMontella: 10:50pm On Sep 11, 2016 |
Ranchhoddas:true on the society claim..but on the society..these various views are due to various ''human'' minds... In christianity..t's said to be a relationship with ''God'' and his supernatural ''spirit'' guides christians... Funny enough..most of these denominations can back up their claims with portions of the precious ''bible''.. So what im concerned is...how can this singular source ''holy spirit'' be so much diverse in its needs... 2 Likes |

raphieMontella:The average Christian will tell you that Christianity is not really about the church or the denomination but each person's personal relationship with God. Have you considered the possibility that the differences you observe might just be expressions of their different levels of relationship with God? Or do you have the same relationship with everyone you know? |

Re: The War Against Christianity....by Christians by DoctorAlien(m): 11:48pm On Sep 11, 2016 |
EyeHateGod: We don't stone non-virgins to death. Jesus never passed a death sentence on the woman caught in the act of adultery. Jesus came to seek and save that which is lost. |

DoctorAlien:well do you accept polygamy? Exodus 21:10 |
Re: The War Against Christianity....by Christians by DoctorAlien(m): 11:57pm On Sep 11, 2016 |
raphieMontella: GOD was never, is never, and will never be in support of polygamy. True, many of GOD's people were polygamists, but it doesn't mean that was GOD's plan for them. First, GOD knows one woman is enough for a man, and so He created only Eve for Adam. He knows what is best for us. And to show his disapproval of polygamy, GOD says that the position of a bishop in the church must never be occupied by a polygamist. (1 Tim. 3:2) |

Re: The War Against Christianity....by Christians by Ranchhoddas: 12:07am On Sep 12, 2016 |
raphieMontella:I am not sure I understand you. How do you know what blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is to know who has blasphemed and who hasn't? |
Re: The War Against Christianity....by Christians by DoctorAlien(m): 12:09am On Sep 12, 2016 |
raphieMontella: The bolded part: How? 2 Sam 12:8 "I gave thee thy master's house, and thy master's wives into thy bosom..." It simply means GOD gave David control over everything that belonged to Saul. Polygamy was already in practice, and David took Bethsheba, Uriah's wife too. Was that GOD's plan for him? No. |
