Na so..

Yet, many of you are against the JWs as the JWs are against the rest of you...

SMH
JW has never one day claimed to be Christian nor Church and they are not.

Different doctrines are OK so long as Christ is the centre and main message.

Doctrines are influences on Christianity based off man made traditions, cultures and practices.
richboy7:
Forget beliefs or doctrine or anything like that, they're all Christians and they're one in Christ because they all come together to serve one Lord which is Christ and one God.. sekina
Dey play

Some believe Jesus is Lord, Some will never agree to that.

Some believe in Trinity, some believe in Oneness

They don’t all agree on the chapters and verses that constitute the Bible

So tell me, what is the center point of Christianity ?

All these are just what your pastors are telling you so you can be comfortable with the conflicting doctrines and not question the introduction of new ones.

Is this what Jesus had in mind when he established the church? A divided group of believers teaching different doctrines they all claim to be from Gods holy spirit?

. DENOMINATIONALISM HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GOD, IT IS FROM THE PIT OF HELL. THE PHARISEES, SADDUCEES ETC WERE THE DENOMINATIONS IN THE DAYS OF CHRIST AND CHRIST TOLD THEM THAT THEY WERE OF THEIR FATHER THE DEVIL AND JOHN THE BAPTIST CALLED THEM BROOD OF VIPERS.

The is no such thing as Pentecostal church. The early church before it started were in the upper room as Commanded by Jesus Christ, they were not celebrating Pentecost.. So I wonder where that idea Pentecostal church came about.. Jesus is Lord and He loves you and has a gift to those who believe in Him and declare Him Lord and Savior

Do they believe in Jesus Christ and his salvation. Thats all.

When trinity or disagreements in scriptural chapters or interpretation is secondary to salvation of which states he will save them from their sins.

The history of Christianity is fascinating. I read about monasteries founded by the Catholic clergies,which were later transformed into primary schools,and then universities.

The earliest universities like Oxford, Bologna and University of Paris were founded by the church. So Christianity is the mother of civilization and science.
Yet, they dumped Christianity. Ever wondered why?

What of jehovah witness?

Catholic church are very stingy people. They can pretend to be very holy but they are very bunch of wicked individuals.
I prefer protestants, living faith(winners). Yes, they wear trousers and dont tie their hair when coming to church, but they are the best!
Catholic are stingy ? They have contributed to the education of these country by establishing alot of schools from primary to universities

Religion says I should just believe without asking questions and gives me a book that even contradicts itself.
Religion says I must believe in some messiah who was offered as a sacrifice by his own father to his own father in order for his father to forgive the sins of his people.
After his death, his people still ask for forgiveness from his father.
OR
I should believe in some prophet who raped kids and orders his followers to kill people who don't believe in him.

Science says I should question whatever is not clear to me and seek answers.
Clearly, I prefer science!

If you are referring to individuals then there is no need to mention catholic here, cause anyone can be stingy it doesn't matter which church or even religion they come from

By churches, catholics are the worst human beings when it comes to feelings.

I prefer when your physical appearance is looking like gangster-like but when it comes to lending a shoulder, you always be there. Not wearing head-tie, covering your full body, having low cuts(hair-style) and dedicated to various church programs and weekend masses but your heart is far-away from caring!

Sad!

Stop jaiving!
You speak nonsense, including the rubbish you spew up,before now?
A Tunji can not understand the mystery of the Scripture because he is in flesh,so stop speaking on what you don't know,for even in your Muslim world,there so many different types e.g Sunni and others,yet you still go to mosque to seek whosoever you worship
See a typical Unbeliever, making mouth on what he doesn't know anything about!
Ohhh you think I am Muslim? Do you really think everyone that bears a Yoruba name is a Muslim? Well I am sorry to disappoint you, I was born in a Christian home. But as it stands now, I wld rather not represent with any religion. Cos over the years, I found out that religion is man made. God is not a Christian... God doesn't practice any religion....

Yes. It could be an anglicised form of His Hebrew name. But nomenclature could be of little importance when God is the one that searches the heart and knows the intents and purposes therein.
