Weighting All Denominations In Christendom On A Scale by ijawkid(m): 1:29pm On Apr 19, 2012
Its true we've all here in nairaland battered every religious organisation in christendom..Starting from d catholics,the protestants(lutherans $ anglicans),the Jehovahs Witnesses,the pentecostals,prosperity preachers,the white garment churches(celestial church $ cherubim) etc....
Knowin that christianity lost its originality 3centuries after d death of Jesus $ d apostles,if we weight all these various organisations professing christianity on a scale and employ strict scrutiny using d bible,which would we say strive to practice true christianity?
Knowin they all @ one time started off with some flaws,which do we think strives incessantly to meet up with d original christianity we know??
Which would we say struggle so hard to apply every bible principles $ commands exactly as they come even though it will cause some inconveniences or losses in this temporary world?
Which would we say strive to follow every of Jesus footsteps,both in d way he acted $ spoke?
The 1st century christians as a close,knit organisation so to say set d pace on hw true christianity should be practiced becos they were d 1st to receive d promised holy spirit first hand $ they saw Jesus face 2 face..
The question now is::
Do all denominations follow there pattern strictly?
Do all denominations show $ share d same kind of self sacrificing love that abounded back then in d 1st century or has such love been quenched by political $ racial divides?
Do all denominations keep strict d traditions $ doctrines of d early christians or has presumpteousness set in where we have to invent or borrow doctrines from pagans?
One thing I'm sure of is,not all denominations will lead to eternal life ..
Let's face reality $ facts!!!!
..there must be one true church that will finally meet up with all d standards set by Jesus through his apostles $ d early christians...
What are ur opinions
