Earlier I was of this opinion that there are only two types of sects in Christianity Roman Catholics and protestants......... When I came here to mylot i was surprised to find so many different types of christian sects.....Mar Thoma, Jacobite, New life, Adventist and so on......i just cant understand why are Christians so divided.......offcourse I read the story about Martin Luther king and why he decided to be a protestant.......but these days so many sects within the same religion......it can be really confusing for people of the other faith.........cant it be just clubbed as Christians ????? I believe even god will not like this....... what are your views on this my friends ????

I agree, it is not a good thing but as commentd, satan will make it his mision to devide the church and cause confusion. My sugestion is for all diffirent denominations get together and write down all the things they disagree about. Then they must write down all the things they do agree with 100%. Then they must throw the list with disagreements in the dustbin and agree to only preach the things they agree on. I am sure if you take the list of things that all agree on, you will find the main and most important message of the Bible. That is, God Is, He loved the world so much that He gave His only Son, Jesus Christ, so that all who believe might not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). That is what the Bible is all about. The rest is to show God's dealings with his people, and also the godless people. I shows God's relationship with those who believe, and it is about hope for those who love Him but go through life's dificulties. Sorry for the semon, but i just could not stop once I got started, this excites me very much. Maybe I should become a minister...LOL, what do you think. Blessings

It is strange that so many Christians are divided, but if there was one Christ set in stone we could all worship together. Wish it wasn't so controversial sometimes.
