What different types of Christians are there?

Question

Example is Roman Catholics or Puritans!

Answer 1

There Is One true kind and they are the ones that are followers of Jesus Christ. However there are true & false conversions.
But only the ones that are truly Born Again are Christians.
It's not about religion or denomination.

Answer 2

There is only one sort of Christian. Christians _never_ split up. Anyone who splits is an outsider. Christians may be Anglicans, Brethren, Methodists, Independents, sometimes Baptists. Christians never make much of their denominations. I have worked full time in missions with people of other denoms and often did not even know which denom they were in.

Catholics can be nice people, but they are not Christians, as every regular here should know by now. Catholics have no assurance of justification, which is essential if one is to have the Holy Spirit. They are a billion miles away from being Christians, no different from non-religious people. Christians hold missions to Catholics just as they do to Jews and Hindus and non-believers.

Puritanism died out centuries ago, but Puritans were only strict moralists, without conversion and without the Holy Spirit. They were not actually any advance on Catholicism, and much harder to live with!

Answer 4

Roman Catholics, of course.

Then there are the Protestants, who have a number of different sects-Methodists, Episcopalians (high and low), Southern Baptists, other Baptists, Lutherans, Mennonites, and too many others to name.

Also, the Orthodox Churches. Greek Orthodox, Russian Orthodox, as well as a number of others.

There are some Middle Eastern Christian churches as well. Coptic Christian is one.

Answer 5

Most Christians divide the trinitarian Christian faith into these three broad categories:

* Catholic
* (Eastern) Orthodox
* Protestant

Some would categorize Anabaptists separately from other Protestants.


Another way of categorizing that is much more useful in my opinion, is:

* Sacramental (Catholic/ Orthodox/ Anglican/ Lutheran)
* Calvinist (Reformed/ Presbyterian/ Particular Baptist)
* Fundamentalist (Fund. Baptist/ Bible Churches)
* Evangelical (most other Protestants)

Answer 6

Jesus said that you must be "born again."

Apostle Paul said they are "baby" Christians and "mature" Christians. The baby Christians are those who say they believe, go to church, listen to the preacher, but never read the Word of God, never witness or never teach or preach.
They sit in the pew and do nothing.

There are so many denominations calling themselves Christian that it is disgraceful. Christ came to set up a kingdom and not a bunch of different religions.

We are the Temple of God. God dwells within us.

Answer 7

There are three.

Catholic/Orthodox
Protestant/evangelical/fundamentalist, etc.
and
narrow-minded self-righteous bigots who think they've been given a mandate from God to determine who is and isn't a "real" Christian -- and feel they need to evangelize Catholics for that reason. (Otherwise known as biting the hand that fed them.)

And it's questions like these that keep flushing out the latter so we can block their hate mail, if we so desire. For that, I sincerely thank you.

Answer 8

CULTIC "CHRISTIANS" (to Gentiles)
Gnostic Christians most don't consider this Christian as they believe Christ was a mere man that became God.

Mormon - Belief in Jesus Christ, but like Gnostics, you can become God yourself. Belief in the scripture of the book of mormon by Joseph Smith. Belief that Christ taught native Americans.

"SPIN OFF CHRISTIANS"
Carismatic - Pentecostal
Snake Charming Christians
Numerous other's who routinely concentrate on speaking in tounges and practice what is considered ODD rituals to mainstream Christianity.


Hope this helps.
