Answer 1

I went back and offered an answer to your original question. Now you have had to "waste" a question in order to clarify. What you might have done was click on the pencil icon and add details to the original question.

Answer 2

In the spirit of Easter... the Eastern orthodox would emphasize Christ as Victor and somewhat less punitive than their western cousins The western protestant and Catholic churches would not disagree but cast their views often in judicial terms. THe main difference being
on the nature of justifcation based on the work of Jesus on the cross with good works as a fruit of salvation in the protestant view (the more Biblical in my opinion)

This is difficult to answer because you can contrast them so many ways
churches will share in many stunning truths and also some disagreements

some with be more word oriented, like Brethren, Presbyterian, Anabaptist

some more experience oriented, emotion oriented, like Pentecostal

some lean toward more experience and a trust in the power of human words like the so called 'word faith' health and wealth movement and are arguably less Biblically oriented

some are more visual like Catholic or Eastern Orthodox, more traditional, Eastern Orthodox going back to very ancient traditions , Roman Catholic more evolving traditions

some being visual like Anglican, have mixed views covering the spectrum of liberal to conservative (some presbyterians and methodists would also range like this) ANglicans ofen appeal to the artistic

some are heavily tranditional like ROman Catholic and more hierarchical

some are more humanist and skeptical and often more strongly affected by prevailing views of the world, these would be liberal churches
While liberal churches were very popular in the middle of the 20th century they are nto very Biblically oriented and would have trouble giving rich meaningful answers other than you would hear on say Oprah

some have would have unique views with regard to Sabbath such as seventh day adventist

some have very different views of the nature of Jesus, God or the gospel and are often categorized as cults... Jehovah Witness, Mormon,s Christian Science for example.. and they are almost in their own categories being so different

Answer 3

Catholic Church has a focus of the more serious aspects. They also focus on the Virgin Mary. The only birth control they allow is the rhythm method and now condoms but just for married partners when one has HIV.
Mormons focus more on the aftermath of Jesus' Resurrection. They allow birth control but are compassionate to those who get abortions but don't approve of them.
Evangelicals and some hardcore Baptist and Presbyterian groups speak in tongues.
Don't know too much about the Jewish faith Im sorry.

Answer 4

I have spent lots of time exploring that same thing. I would go to other churches to see, for myself how they believe and why? but there are so many other types, too many to check all of them. so I Begin to trying to find their Bibles and read them.

Most all of them are based on the same type of religion. in the way of the one and only God, a few facts may have been changed but they all come down to one thing. they are Christan's. and all believe in the same God. but the Bible is never changed much. some take parts out and some add parts but, also it is about the same. other than that all are about the same.

so the differences, you are asking about, Is... not much. unless you go to other countries, where they believe in idols, and Gods or Nature, also of the Earth. that would be considered a big difference, in religion.

Is this what you are asking?

Answer 5

1. Christianity= belief in Jesus as the son of God and Lord and savior

2.Judaism= (Jewish) God only. No Jesus. Based on the covenant between Abraham and God (later with Moses)

3. Buddhism= belief in the fifth century BC prince, Buddha

4. Hinduism- polytheism. A belief in the High Self God (your power/karma)

5.Islamic- belief in Muhammad- the Qur'an

6.Muslim- same as above only a few differences (belief that Allah is God)

7.Mormonism= created by Joesph Smith. Is considered as a cult (due to mass death of the Oregon trail settlers who saw was J. Smith was doing...Smith "silenced" them) Believes in Jesus, but believes you "earn" your place in Heaven.

8. Catholicism= belief in God, Jesus, but also worships the Virgin Mary. Must go through a priest to talk to God. Confessions...etc.

I can do more, but don't have time

Answer 6

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints believe that families can be sealed together on earth and then continue to be families after death. We also believe that Faith without Works is dead. We also believe the Book of Mormon and the Holy Bible to be the word(s) of God. Another concept is a strong belief in God the Eternal Father, His son Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost...we believe that they are separate individuals who are one in purpose.
