A church is a gathering of people to worship God. God is spirit and we worship him in truth and in spirit. There are many denominations but there is only one God.
Do you think God prefers one denomination over another? Are you closer to God in your choice?
Answer: Go where you like because God is there.

Most all Holiness churches always preach money, always seem to be needing money, never seem to get anywhere. While on the other hand, Baptist churches, everyone seem to drive nice cars, dress nice, the churches have schools, literature to read on many subjects, and never beg for money. A Holiness church services seem to be in disarray, when a Baptist church service is in order. I was raised up in a Holiness church, but I never did understand the shouting thing. It always seemed like to me an emotional thing.

Baptist for sure. The others get too much in the flesh jumping around and shouting. You won't find that anywhere in the New Testament.Paul says "God is not the author of confusion " and "The spirit of the prophet is subject to the prophet".In other words ,one can control one's self.
Like ol' Johnny said"Pastor ,I'm sorry for shoutingand kicking and runnning around,but when the spirit gets me,I can't contain myself!" So,the Pastor threw the container out.
By the way ,I am not a Baptist. I'm a Calvary Chapel guy.

I've never been to a Holiness Church. What's it like? Then I can answer your question. I go to a Pentcostal church.

Jesus promised, "I will build my Church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it" (Matt. 16:18). This means that his Church will never be destroyed and will never fall away from him. His Church will survive until his return. Among the Christian churches, only the Catholic Church has existed since the time of Jesus. Every other Christian church is an offshoot of the Catholic Church. The Eastern Orthodox churches broke away from unity with the pope in 1054. The Protestant churches were established during the Reformation, which began in 1517. (Most of today’s Protestant churches are actually offshoots of the original Protestant offshoots.) Only the Catholic Church existed in the tenth century, in the fifth century, and in the first century, faithfully teaching the doctrines given by Christ to the apostles, omitting nothing. The line of popes can be traced back, in unbroken succession, to Peter himself. This is unequaled by any institution in history: Even the oldest government is new compared to the papacy. The Catholic Church has existed for nearly 2,000 years, despite constant opposition from the world. This is testimony to the Church’s divine origin: Any merely human organization would have collapsed long ago. The Catholic Church is today the most vigorous church in the world (and the largest, with a billion members: one sixth of the human race), and that is testimony not to the cleverness of the Church’s leaders, but to the protection of the Holy Spirit.
Jesus’ Church is called catholic ("universal" in Greek) because it is his gift to all people. He told his apostles to go throughout the world and make disciples of "all nations" (Matt. 28:19–20). For 2,000 years the Catholic Church has carried out this mission, preaching the good news that Christ died for all men and that he wants all of us to be members of his universal family (Gal. 3:28). Nowadays the Catholic Church is found in every country of the world and is still sending out missionaries to "make disciples of all nations" (Matt. 28:19). The Church Jesus established was known by its most common title, "the Catholic Church," at least as early as the year 107, when Ignatius of Antioch used that title to describe the one Church Jesus founded. The title apparently was old in Ignatius’s time, which means it went all the way back to the time of the apostles.

By Holiness Church, do you mean "tongues", or "Entire Sanctification"? I go to the latter type.
