I've been thinking about Catholicism because of their reverance for the Mother, but I also like the Mormon things I have read.

Denominations don't go to hell - unrepentant sinners do.

Only God knows who is hell bound. I do not believe that any denomination is damned, there is good and bad in each. God looks at the heart of mankind not the outer religious shell. Christians do not consider Mormon a part of Christianity. They have different beliefs about basic doctrine that goes against what Christians believe.

It's rare to hear me say something against another faith, but leave the Mormon faith alone.
if you become a Christian, the denomination will not matter.
study your Bible and see for yourself which one goes along with the Word of God. For myself, I chose the Baptist Faith.
It's not the denomination that sends you to hell, it's the non belief, and not being born again. It takes more than just belief, Satan believes, but he trembled at the mear mention of Jesus's name. And Satan is going to hell.

if there were a hell other than the one on earth now made by mostly organized religions then I would send the Christian Devils first .Isn't this by your outlook a satanic question . Must I remind you that satan means the accuser and you are the accuser why don't you leave this to the imaginary god you profess to believe in? Assuming your not an atheist as myself .And if you don't believe in the made up hell then why ask such a ludicrous question?

That would be the Mormons
they called me crazy when i told them of two life saving miracles.they said only people in there Church could do miracles.
No actually all that's up to God .I don't judge. i was hurt though by those elders saying that , I was about to be baptized into there Church.
I thought that they were OK ,it turns out i was wrong
so i sure don't trust that fellow who's running for President that's a morman.he is probably weird also

It is impossible to give a universal statement on the salvation of all members of any denomination of Christianity. Not ALL Baptists are saved. Not ALL Presbyterians are saved. Not ALL Lutherans are saved. Salvation is determined by personal faith in Jesus alone for salvation, not by titles or denominational identification. Despite the unbiblical beliefs and practices of the Roman Catholic Church, there are genuine believers who attend Roman Catholic churches. There are many Roman Catholics who have genuinely placed their faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. However, these Catholic Christians are believers despite what the Catholic Church teaches, not because of what it teaches. To varying degrees, the Catholic Church teaches from the Bible and points people to Jesus Christ as the Savior. As a result, people are sometimes saved in Catholic churches.

It makes me sad to think that this is something you're determining a faith on.
Go to a few different churches, listen carefully to the sermons. From that point you decide what you truly believe in. No denomination or particular group of people is just "going to hell".
I personally, am of a Baptist faith. I believe whoever accepts Christ as their personal Savior is guaranteed eternal life with him. Do not choose a faith only because you are scared of going to hell, choose it because you want God in your life, and you want your life to be more because of it.
I pray that you find your way.

No i do no longer think that. God would not desire us to finally finally end up in Hell. He needs us in Heaven with Him. If we don't % to stay with Him then we placed ourselves in Hell. He would not deliver us there. and that i'm advantageous distinctive people will disagree with me and thumb me down yet I additionally do no longer have faith Catholicism is a denomination. i've got faith this is the single genuine church that Jesus based.

These people who make God, All mighty, Allah {STW} into three, and those who gone away to create thire own group are in the wrong path for sure. Follow One God, Alone, God has no father or mother, he is not a male or female, only reason why I say he, because he is called Huwa in the Quran. He is uniqe and noting like him. the minute you can imagine what he looks like, he has other than that and you are wrong. Remember, Either you are a slave to what mad man, or you are slave to what man made!

Even people in denominations may end up in Hell. What counts is receiving Jesus as Lord.

...who is teaching you....? ...it's not about being a Christian. It's about accepting God thru His Son to receive the gift of Salvation... "religion" and "denominations" have absolutely nothing to do with a relationship with God... unless they are teaching you that it's "all about Jesus"...not about the "religion or denomination"....We will damn ourselves by our refusal to learn and accept the Truth of Salvation... Read the Book of John... go to Blockbuster... rent the video...(the same name) "The Book of John" and see who this Jesus is !!!! and find someone that teaches you from The Book...
