I'm not exactly sure what an Arian Christ is I looked it up, but just ended up confused. If you believe Jesus Christ is God and he died for your sins and you acknowledge you're a sinner I'm sure that belief system can't be that bad. It may be wrong, but its not going to affect your salvation.:)
The Christ of Arianism. Otherwise a Christ that was created and not God, the JW's basically hold to this belief.

There are really only TWO christian denominations.

The pro-catholics and the anti-catholics!

(some of the pro-catholics are not catholics themselves)

Pro-Catholic

indifferent

Good if everyone was just pro Jesus without all the other stuff. Defending denominations isn't being Christlike, centuries old argument, protestants and Catholics, people kill each over this literally, and then go church Sunday. Come on, that's religion at it's best.

1 Corinthians 1:10

New King James Version (NKJV)

Sectarianism Is Sin

10 Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

For any denomination look to the doctrine and if the doctrine does not line up with the Word, turn away. There is only ONE doctrine and that is in the Word. Any teacher giving a message that differs from the Word and not through the Holy Spirit is a false teacher, and we do not want to be overcome by this false doctrine and thus bound by their judgment. The key point is, doctrine matters.

Well, that's a big error. I guess that comes with the confusion about the Trinity. Being that even for me its hard to understand how Christ was fully God and fully human. And honestly we won't completely understand till we go to heaven. I can't say they aren't Christians cause that's not my place, but its hard to say because Christians believe that Jesus is Lord and Savior.

Well you have to remember the beliefs that Catholics and the other Apostolic Churches hold. We believe we are the true Church which Christ founded.

I'm sure my opinion may not be "accepted", but I don't really care. I honestly think denominations is another way Satan has found to separate God's people. I mean I don't see the point of arguing over stupid doctrine. I mean if you believe that Jesus is the Son of God and that he died and rose again 3 days for your sins and you know you are a sinner needing Jesus you're fine with me:) It makes me so sad seeing all these threads attacking other denominations I wonder what non-Christians who visit this website thing. Just something to think about. God bless:)
COMPARATIVE RELIGION Thread on ChristianChat.com Bible Discussion Forum:

http://christianchat.com/bible-discussion-forum/28540-comparative-religion.html

Why do people break into denominations:
* Different Beleifs
* Different Practices
* Different Nations/Countries
* Different Ethnicities/Tribes


These things should be understood and discussed. I do agree that it is a way of Satan
dividing the people.
But we should also understand -- that God is ONE, and doctrinal and
behavioral and tribal and ethnic differences are not what God is looking for.
