Write Sign in Member-only story How Many Christian Denominations Are There and Why? Jeff Hilles - Biblical Christian Worldview Aug 16, 2024 We started with Christ and where are we today? If you type into a search string the question “How many Christian denominations are...

From the founding of Islam until the Protestant Reformation an argument might be made for citing Mongol emperor Genghis Khan (d.1227), founder of the largest empire in world history that at its height stretched from the Pacific Ocean to Eastern Europe and from southern Siberia to northern India...

You understand it? Could you explain it to me? How would he know how to live a Godly Christian life if he doesn't even read God's Word? That's like the worst advice ever to give someone! But that's still no reason not to read the Word of God. There is right and truth. Catholicism is wrong and...

I don't know much about Fuentes, so this has nothing to do with him, but what he says about reading the Bible is understandable and he's not the only one with such thinking. I don't agree with it but I do understand it. Take a look at the Bible Discussion Forum and all the personalities and...

Historians who rely on stories from traditions, as does Roman Catholicism and other pagan religions, there is always degrees of error. When writing my thesis for my Th.D, I was constantly pressed to remain free of writings based upon traditions unless the point being made was to compare the...

LOL, I just started reading your post. IF I SAY IF you believe GOD'S word to be true, the earth is app 6 thousand years old. Just FYI, I'm not here to talk about history, my goal is to get people reborn and let the spirit lead them. It's clear you don't.

Talk all you like, maybe you will find some to lead down the same path you are going. One thing I have learned in life if a person is a perpetual liar you can not trust anything that comes out of his mouth. How can you tell when they are lying? Their lips are moving. You may have some real...

I checked post #194 and found nothing but you ranting and expressing your opinion, and you declined to discuss key OT teachings in #195, so now I will try some history: For most people, history is like a jigsaw puzzle, and just as putting the border pieces together first is a good strategy for...

Friend, I notice here, that we ALL are interested in "What is Truth?" "What is Jesus? and what is "The Way" to return to Eden, "Heaven". I try to "... love my neighbor, as myself" Luke 10:27, so I want ALL Y'all, to be in heaven as well, just as Jesus wants us to believe and follow Him, by not...

There's only so much detail anyone can express on a timeline chart. The book is yours for the asking too if you want to read it. The author details the history you mentioned and you will probably agree, judging from what you said.

So true, I missed that.

If that chart were more honest it would show Protestantism branching off from western Catholicism because 1) that's what happened and 2) Calvin and Luther developed their theologies from the writings of the Catholic Augustine, and not the writings of the early church fathers.

:ROFL: My soap box collapsed from under me... I just like to speak strongly about such horridly false teachings that have gone on for FAR too long through the centuries. This garbage became so deeply entrenched as one of many things handed down to Protestantism from Roman Catholicism, which is...

Some, not all. There is plenty of false teaching, but it's not the core of most protestant denominations. Catholicism is fundamentally flawed at its roots.

This history of beliefs (HOB) began by identifying major events that might serve as a framework or pneumonic device for remembering a summary of that history. The first/alpha event in the timeline was the Creation of the universe or space-time, and the last/omega point was its future ending on...

Thanks for posting this. It explains a few things. I've had some horrendous discussions with some Roman Catholics who were so oriented to the Pope and so unread in the Bible that there really was no talking to them. I recall one man who immediately took aggressive issue with me - so much so...

Orthodox Priest on the Possible Expanse of Unity “But once again we return to a difference on approach. Although Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism have much in common, from an Orthodox perspective, Protestantism and Roman Catholicism have far more in common with each other than what they think...

Orthodox Priest on the Possible Expanse of Unity, July 7, 2009 [Rather than do bulk italicized typography, I'll put F. Harry's content in violet.] ''It is important for people to realize that there is not just "Protestant" and "Catholic," but also that there is "Orthodox," a third perspective...

continuing from above.. 51 Is this perhaps the reason why liberal Protestantism has become practically indistinguishable from Roman Catholicism in its theology and worship style? Could this be the reason why liberal Protestants are reaching across the abyss to clasp the hand of Catholicism...

KISSing the Kissed HOB produces the following framework: 1. Creation - Alpha, “Big Bang”, circa 14 billion years B.C. & Earth c. 4 billion years B.C., geography/space and chronology/time. 2. Language - GW & human oral language c. 10,000 B.C. is what writing records (communication). 3. Writing...
