I have read some articles in the internet about "Christians" discussing the beliefs and practices of their fellow Christians! Wasn't it funny? A Christian rejecting a Christian because of the difference in beliefs and practices...
What I will say to my fellow Christians is that we should respect each other,respect for each other's beliefs, practices and religion.We are all brothers in the eyes of God therefore we should respect each other. Even if we have different beliefs and practices or we have different medium in showing/telling our praises/prayers to God, still the final destination of our prayers and praises is God. How can we attain PEACE in our world, in our family, in our countries if religion itself is the hindrance to attain Peace? We are praying to God for Peace, peace,peace..but how can we attain Peace if we do not know how to RESPECT. I'm saying these not only to my fellow Christians but also to all people belonging to different religions.Let us RESPECT,LOVE each other!

You realize of course that the solution for religious dissent is atheism. Atheists do not fight each other about which kind of atheism is best or most accurate. Atheists do not look at atheists in other countries as enemies who should be killed. Atheists leave each other alone and respect each others similarities and differences as a normal part of life. Atheists are not as fearful of death. Atheists do not sin. Atheists respect the Earth and our environment more because there is no heaven or hell, just the here and now. We also recognize the importance of leaving something nice to our children and grand children because there is not ever going to be a judgment day or a final day of destruction by a brutal, primitive, disgusting deity. It's just us and we atheists want to get along with others.

Well you know, that is good advice to follow, except when it comes to teachers and church leaders that are out there claiming to be Christians, but are teaching heresies. In the letters that Paul writes to Timothy, Paul warns about some false teachers and Christians, and even names names. That kinda gives us biblical grounds to expose these teachings, and name names as well. So long as heresies are not being taught, I'm okay with most other Christians beliefs, ideas, etc... but I have to point out heresies, because they can lead people into a false assurance of salvation, when they are really not saved at all.

How can they love each other? Jesus said in John 15:5: "...for without me you can do nothing"
Without Jesus one can never love another in the truest meaning.
So every Christian, on the first instance must learn how to love each other in the trruist meaning. Otherwise your objective may never be fulfilled.

You are right. I believe in Jesus and my religion is Spiritism. I dont follow the Bible, although I respect it as an important reference. My religion is based on Allan Kardec's books. Although Jesus is my Master and Teacher, some Christians dont ecognize me as Christian. Too bad! I dont mind. Let Jesus himself decide.
Peace!

As long as a Church preaches ;
Jesus son of God,
Born of a Virgin,
Died,
Resurrected,
Coming again,
Jesus said if they come preaching any other gospel than this rejected them.
Love without Jesus is not agape love.<><

I go to different churches and endeavor to help heal the divisions that are based on RELIGION and doctrinal differences. The divisions are silly and our Lord warned about this.

I agree..
You don't go from church to church to find which is the true church .... You will never find.
You will find if you focus on what you want to seek from wherever or whoever you are.
All are brotherens ....othewise why are they here on earth.
if not for the will of the God.
May God bless you.
