Zone1 Where did all these denominations come from?

The video doesn't say they were.

The original Church was termed the Early Church in the video.

Even in the thumbnail Catholicism is a branch, not the trunk.
That was the claim made first in the video. The Protestants did come out of THAT church.

When nearly everyone in the world thinks of Christianity, the WORLD sees Catholicism.

It is a counterfeit

The Church of God teaches the OPPOSITE on almost every doctrine
 
the 1st century events, liberation theology, self determination taught by jesus and those that gave their lives for the heavenly religion of antiquity have been vilified and persecuted from that time to the present day -

only occasionally the goodness of the heaves is allowed to shine freely and sadly more through negligence by the crucifiers preventing its fruition than for its true value.

You should watch the video. It talks about the Holiness denomination and the Pentecostals.

After you watch it...then you can critique it.

I'm not trying to determine "who is right"...that's above my pay grade.

Everybody thinks they are right.

I'm only interested right now in the history and understanding who believes what.

- they did not as most relate to the forgeries and fallacies that preside throughout the christian bible that is the true nature of the various denominations and the errant influence of judaism that jesus most tried to address - their false commandments, and hereditary idolatry.
 
if my little city of 10 billion churches is any indication, i am guessing it is a combination of ego, holier than thou-ness, and good old fashioned politics that have largely been the drivers.
 
I found this interesting.

Caveat emptor...I can't vouch for it's accuracy, because I'm learning myself.


Jesus started 1 single religion= unified in love, peace and thought( 1 Cor 1:10) no division--that means all the rest belong to satan, like this-2Cor 11:12-15)

Yes however..... If you consider the fact that emperor Constantine was the first to assume the the title of Pontifex Maximus.... There is an argument to be made that the Roman branch of the church is the one with the deepest history. The first century Christians who were the immediate aftermath of Christ's preaching campaign didn't necessarily inhabit Rome at that point.
 
Don't forget the offshoots.....People that get pissed at their church and start their own.

There's three of them within a mile of me that sprouted out of one FUBAR local Baptist church but they don't call themselves Baptists.....I swear some have cult sounding names but seem to be going concerns.
 
I learned a lot from this one as well.

More of what I was looking for... Beliefs they share and how they are differentiated.

 
hello

there are so, so many, many reasons as to why so many denominations and sects exist,

we all could spend a month looking at all of them and how they started, who started them and when they were started and there would be hundreds if not thousands of reasons to explain and show why each denomination was started.

but . ............ would you think that
there has to be an underlying reason a fundamental reason as to why each denomination was established as a general overall core reason.

one could take the view point as to explaining this in a very critical and harsh way and even say things that are so
negatively judgmental and even cast this judgment as very hateful and harmful and hurtful.

I have thought about both sides of the issue and i honestly say that the negative seems to harsh and the positive seems to smooth

the negative side, in my view could be that these denominations are attractive to people who are desperate and needy and it also attracts people who love confusion and contradiction and even mockery being attached to The Bible.

the positive side, in my view could be that these denominations are simply a social and even political upheaval within different societies and political factions that groups of people are so earnest to separate themselves from the society around them that they literally create a totally radical version of the Scripture's message ...

there are just so many contradictions between all of them and between one another to be based on what the manuscripts are originally transmitting but it seems to me personally -for the most part - rather a desire to create a change and separation , and religion is an excellent and very pliable tool

and also that itself, religion, has been forced and manipulated upon the massed throughout history through extreme violence that sometimes making a change seems like freedom or escape from a confusion that is generated through history
 
The Catholic Church was never the original church
... although all churches are either catholic or no church ... What was the original church? A flashlight is for example also not blue grass. But what means such a true sentence in general? ¿Nothing? Negations are often very deadly. A not-stone for example is the whole universe except this stone. We know nearly everything about this special stone - but we know nearly nothing about the universe.

 
... Even in the thumbnail Catholicism is a branch, not the trunk.

It exist about 2.5 billion Christians worldwide. 1.2 billion are Catholics. About 666 millions are Pentecostal and Charismatic. About 600 millions are Protestants and 295 million are orthodox.

------- Pentecostals and Charistmatic
------ Protestants
--- Orthodox
------------ Catholics

Right or wrong is not the question. A Lutheran priest here was for example very frustrated because a Catholic bishop made something wrong and many people left also the Lutheran church. The reverse is also true. This shows very clear the people follow exactly the Catholic doctrine "One god. One truth. One church." There is only one church - this church is broken in parts. And we are not able to heal the church. On the other side: I am a Catholic - my wife is a Lutheran. That's no problem at all.

But I'm sure it is a problem that many Christians in the USA support or seem to support Donald Trump. This gives a boost to atheism here because almost everyone rejects Trump. The strange thing: Donald Trump is no Christian. Never was.

BreezeWood. Again: "liberation theology" is an extremely modern Catholic form of theology from South America. Still "hotly" disputed. (What is for Catholics "hotly" is for others a race between snails).
