Ok, does anyone know how many types of christian denominations there are?

Answer 1

It does not matter how many denominations there are. Im sure there are hundreds.

But as long as you believe and follow Jesus you are a Christian. All cultures and nations and tougues:

Joh 11:26 and whosoever liveth and believeth on me shall never die. Believest thou this?

Answer 2

Each and every Christian who believes in Sola Scriptura becomes a denomination unto himself. Because the Bible alone is their rule of faith, they have no account of an authority which may accurately interpret the Bible. They are left to interpret it for themselves. And each one interprets it just a bit differently than the next.

Then there is the Christian faith which is not a denomination. It is the Catholic Church. All other churches sprang from this one either directly or indirectly and thus had to be called a denomination. The Catholic Church is, however, the root and it's inaccurate to call it a denomination.

It is in direct contradiction to the plan of Christ to have separate churches. Unity is under one Church, which Christ began with appointed Peter the first Pope.

One day the Holy Spirit will bring all other churches back in unity, but as of now there is just too much disagreement.

Sadly, it is only the Catholic Church that is seeking to form a unity with healthy discussion. There was a council upon which many denominations would be to define commonalities of doctrine in an effort of ecumenism. However, after only a few years everyone broke away except the Catholic Church out of a disinterest.

A disinterest! in the unity of the church. the passion of the reformation to separate and divide is still alive and well, it seems.

Answer 5

Are real Christian's denominational or are they believers in Christ and follow him in their daily walk, hence the word Christian. A better question would probably be how many denominations believe in the Lord Christ Jesus and if so why are we not on the same page? LOVE YOU ALL, MAY GOD BLESS YOU!

Answer 6

I heard something like over 330? Anyway, the doctrine of the New Jerusalem is that "God is one, and there is a conjunction of charity and faith." Since God never changes, that was always the doctrine of the New Church which is called "New Jerusalem" in Revelation. The church of Philadelphia was set an open door to the New Jerusalem in around 100 AD.

Answer 7

True Christianity cannot be divided into sects of grouperial beliefs. Either you believe or you don't there is no question of how much of the Bible you choose to believe in. No where in the bible does it ever say that the true believers of Christ should go according to their separate beliefs. Jesus said that I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but by Me. That means that believers believe that they should go out into all the world a preach the gospel, they believe in supernatural miracles by the Holy Spirit, they believe in speaking in tongues, they believe in baptism, and etc. God Bless.
