Been members of those denominations you mentioned does not make one a Christian however we have Christians among the members of some of the denominations you mentioned. There is UNITY among Christians whichever denominations they belong to. The unity you are expecting is coming together under one organization which is not even a sign of unity or agreeing together over evrything even when they are outrightly unbiblical. Christianity is FIRST AND FOREMOST personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ and not been a member of a Christian denomination. |

There cannot be unity amongst Christians because not all religions are acceptable and pleasing to God. In the bible at Ephesians 4:5 it says- One Lord, one faith, and one baptism. Notice the keywords One Faith. The bible is clear in that not all worship is pleasing to God at Mark 7:6.7. Jesus was talking to the Scribes and Pharisees when he said[b]-"Isaiah aptly prophesied about you hypocrites as it is written, This people honor me with their lips but their hearts are far removed from me.7-It is in vain that they keep worshiping me because they teach as doctrines commands of men."[/b] Even though Jesus was speaking to the religious leaders of his day the same still applies to our day. Regardless of who the religion professes to worship if they hold to doctrines of men instead of what the bible teaches then their worship is in vain. True worship of God requires accurate knowledge. If you do not have accurate knowledge then how can you truly do what God requires of you to worship him the way "he" finds acceptable. Romans 10:2 says-For I bear witness that they have a zeal for God but not according to accurate Knowledge. |

I think the reason of this post is to know the reason y the xtians keep on criticising their own faith, when a member of the Jehovah witness will say his believe is better, celestial will also say the dame likewise all other denominations, but i think they sld have the same believe, but they may claim to have the same believe but within then they they are different but still claiming to be one. BUT IT WILL BE BETTER FOR THE XTIANS TO HANDLE THIS ISSUE IN THE CHRISTIANDOME RATHER THAN GOING AGAINST OTHER RELIGION |

If you saw that someone was about to fall to their deaths becuase of the wrong directions they were being given on a map would you inform them of their wrong direction or leave them to figure it out for themselves and possibly lose their life? They may be certain that the direction they are taking is right but from careful examination and research you have become aware that the map really is fualty. But many may hask how can they know if the path they are following is really right? Well first look at the things you are being tuaght. Is it from men or Gods word the bible? For instance examine closely where the teachings of the trinity come from. Or how about the origins of christmas and other secular holidays. Once you have found that many pf these teachings and practices come from pagan religions of the past then ask yourself, is my religion still accepting and participating in these practices. If you do not believe this then google the origin of christmas and also other holidays that may interest you. What to of Gods name? At Mathew 4:10 Jesus stated that it was written that it is Jehovah God you must worship and to him alone you must render sacred service. Is the organization you attend openly using Gods name and teaching you who Jehovah is , his qualities, and his purpose? Do you know Jehovahs purpose for the world and the people that live in it. Did you know his purpose for mankind has not changed from the what he intended for Adam and Eve? The bible has told us to be rich in fine works and to be eager to share in order that we may treasure up a fine foundation for the future in order that we may get a firm hold on the real life.(1Timothy 6:19) DAre you being tuaght what God really considers fine works and what exactly he wants us to be willing to share? And what is the real life that the scripture is talking about? If you would like to find out the answers to these questions you can start by visiting www.watchtower.org. I am also here if you and willing to though the bible discuss these and other questions as are many witnesses in just about any area. |

there cannot be unity except in Christ Jesus. Infact Christ wasnt looking for unity, He was looking to save the lost. |

I was trying to say I am also here and willing to discuss, using the bible, any questions that you may have about this topic as well as any other that may interest you as are many other Jehovahs witnesses that you can find in just about every place in the world. |
