1Roman catholics
they believe that you must be baptized at birth and confess your sins on a regular basis,as well as do absolution to get into heaven. If you are baptized,but not absolved of all sin you go to purgatory . where you can absolve from your sins. if you haven't bothered to confess or go to mass in years, you burn in hell.

2. eastern orthodox christians.
i don't know much about this group, i believe they have similar belief to catholic but disagree about some calendar issues and their church architecture is different.

3.protastant christians

there are a couple of sub groups as well as 100's of denominations in this group.
many only differ from the orthodox churches in that they belive in baptism being something an adult must chose to do. not something done to a baby.to the extream of various small churches with beliefs in snake handling to speaking in tounges. also the more fundamentalist of these churches tend to be very proactive in recruiting and politics to make others live by thier beliefs.

4. Jehovah's Witness

this is sometimes grouped as a protastent group but it has some signifigant differences to point out.All members are REQUIRED to go door to door trying to convert people to their specific denomination. also they do not believe in giving gifts at christmas.

5. Mormon,

This group believes in a totally seperate "book of Mormon"
in which it tells of Jesus' adventures in north America during his teen years and 20's before the events listed in the traditional bible. This group is very family oriented,and doesn't allow the use of alcohol or caffeine. the extreme sects of this group believe in Polygamy.

6.Muslim

Muslims acknowledge jesus as one of God's prophets,but they do not view him as of divine origin himself.

7.Neopagans

Some neopagans consider Jesus one God of many that they worship.

Barabbas have you ever forgotten? Salvation got here first to the Jew then the Gentile. Does the Jew have self belief in Christ? No. Does God go away situation undone? No. That became into why the prophecy made by JC extra desirable than 2,000 yrs. in the past that Israel may well be destroyed as a rustic and scattered over international yet might return as a rustic returned. That prophecy became into fulfilled could 14, 1948 while Israel became a rustic returned. Now God is ending what He began. you are going to be able to think of that all and sundry which center East non-experience is approximately oil or Arab and Jew hate however the decrease than mendacity purpose can purely be seen by His truthful.

There is one religion which worships Jesus: Christianity. This is sometimes divided into Catholicism, Protestantism and hundreds of small sects, but it's basically a single religion.

As for the different sects; Calvinists think everything is predetermined, Catholics follow the Pope and revere Mary, Lutherans think the Pope is the Antichrist, Anglicans or Episcopalians try to strike a balance between Catholics and Protestants, Mormons think Native Americans are Israelites, Jehovah's Witnesses don't recognise the Trinity, Baptists drip water over themselves ritually, and Anabaptists don't.

Jesus is believed to be a (fully human) prophet by Islam and Baha'ism.

Dont be too impressed. All the info isnt correct.

Mormons believe that anyone can achieve the highest degree of glory, or heaven and dont believe anyone is really going to hell regardless of their belief system

They also believe that some Israelites came to the americas and founded some societies that were eventually destroyed, but not that ALL of the descendants of native americans were from Israel.

Get your facts straight if you are going to talk about a religion.

The far right "conservative" churches preach fire, brimstone and the glory of the Rapture, in which they will all be "taken up" before they have to go through any trials.

The Catholic Church holds no belief in the Rapture, nor do many more "liberal" Protestent churches.

The Mormons believe they are the only ones going to heaven, and have a spot picked out where Jesus will return.

The Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe in The Trinity, The celebration of Christmas, do not vote in any elections, and try to recruit people on a daily bases by knocking on doors.

The Amish are a pious people who sacrifice all modern conveinences for devotion to God.

Southern Baptist have been known to roll in the isles during services and perform "healing" ceremonies on stage. These and all Baptists seem to think that their interpretation of the holy Bible is the only one. Do not try to argue with them or express a different point of view.

The Church of Christ is a bible based denomination where each individual congregation is able to decide if they believe in "the Rapture" or not. Most do not.

There are many more Christian denominations and all have their differences. The main point to consider is that they all believe in the resurrection of Jesus Christ and salvation through the Blood of the Lamb. Whether or not you believe a denomination's views and policies is purely your own opinion.

There are no religions that worship Jesus. Jesus and His Disciples have a personal relationship, it is Spiritual and it has no building or anything material attached to it. Now, don't get me wrong, there are disciples of Jesus who go to Churches, and some who go to Catholic Mass, some are in prison, and there is hardly a place on earth where Jesus does not have some of His people. So if you can separate true worship from religion, then you will have the answer to your question.

Well I only know of one that worships Christ and that's the Christians. There are many denominations to the Christians the most notable being the Catholics who believe that you must confess your sins to a priest and then you can be saved. Baptist believe that the believer can confess their sins directly to Jesus and they don't need a priest to absolve them of their sin. In the Islam faith Jesus is not considered the son of God but he is seen as a prophet. In Judaism Jesus is seen as a messenger from God but not the chosen one sent to lead the Jewish people.

Baptists have to be dunked under water. Methodists do the same things all the time. Presbyterians believe everything is meant to be. Episcopalians like to get drunk and divorce. Mormons, well, we know what they like. Catholics think they are special since they got here first, and they worship Mary (just kidding!!!). Lutherans have no humor. Jehovah Witnesses like to visit a lot. Seventh Day Adventists go to church when it's not so crowded, while everyone else is out shopping. Amish shop at Goodwill. Church of Christ people are tone deaf, and think everyone sings well enough without musical accompaniment. Church of God people are just slap crazy and like to jump around until they fall on the floor.

Religions worship Satan, if religions truly worshiped Jesus, they would not have built a church, and asked their members to pay for it's upkeep. They would have given all their money to the poor.

"The Word of God" the Christ told Nathan to tell king David not to build God a place to dwell in, that God's own Son would build His a church, without hands. It says this in 1 Chronicles 17:1-15
17:3, And it came to pass the same night, that (the word of God) came to Nathan, saying,...

There are thousands of churches, communities and groups that claim to be Christian. You need an encyclopedia to answer that question.
It might be good to start with small things, like the word is "worship" not "workship."
