Is Christianity a very small religion since Christians say that most other Christians are not true ones ?

Question

If different groups have very conflicting beliefs then how can they both be Christians ?

If one group says Jesus is GOD and another says he is only the son and NOT God then how can these two be classified as the same faith ?

.

No,

In Islam all groups believe God is Allah and his prophet is Mohamed

Answer 1

Easy. They're not the same. As much as everyone wants to call themselves my brother, most are not, and you know who isn't, based upon what they believe.

Jesus said FEW find the truth (Him) and enter into heaven. FEW.

Answer 2

Most Christian groups acceptother Christian groups as being true(if not complete in the faith).
If a group teaches that Jesus is not God Incarnate that group is not Christian.
Muslims actually seem to have a bigger problem getting along and tolerating each other than Christian groups do or any other religion I know of.

Answer 3

I am a Christian that follows the New Testament authority for religion. The New era actually begins in Acts 1. The very end of the "gospels" where they talk about the crucifiction of Jesus get into a few days of the Christian era, but there were NO Christians in Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. Therefore, people that do not believe the Bible as it is, are not Christians. They claim to be because they believe Jesus lived, but that does not make one a Christian. They must be the Christian, not just claim to follow Jesus.

Answer 4

It's not so much the groups ... but people who have a genuine relationship with Jesus that can really be classified under Christianity.

So yes it's small, and are parts of several denominations. Probably 5% of the world, but that's just a guess from me.

Answer 5

Christianity is simply being born again. Repenting of your sins, believing Jesus is the son of God, asking him into your heart and live a life in accordance with His teachings & commandments. The other stuff is just man made religion.

Answer 6

True Christianity is not a religion. It is a relationship developed while one is IN one of the Christian religions. So yes, there are only a very few real Christians. But God has always emphasized His relationship with the remnants of such organizations.

Answer 7

When the Muslims force Islam on the people of the western world, you just watch how many will deny their Christian faith.

Answer 8

All Christians are NOT saved. ONLY those Christians who have been born again are saved.

Jhn 3:3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.


Jhn 3:4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?


Jhn 3:5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and [of] the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.


Jhn 3:6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.


Jhn 3:7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

Answer 9

Everyone has a conflicting belief somewhere along the line. But there are a few things that are obviously important NOT to have disagreements with in scripture. I would enter in a debate, but not all are equipped to do that either.

The one's who say that Jesus is not God are wrong, I can prove it to anyone who allows scripture to be used for the explanation.

Answer 10

Christianity is a very small group. Always has been and I guess it will always be.

I'm sometimes amazed at the handful of true believers.

Answer 11

Jesus instructed us to pass into each and all the worldwide and pontificate the gospel to each creature ( human ). the folk in Brazil had the comparable danger to have faith in God as people who lived till now Jesus grew to become into born. advent is God's info of His life, as Romans a million:18-20 says, and God will demonstrate Himself to every person who seeks to appreciate Him. Romans 10:9-10 is a thank you to appreciate Him.
