Why all the different churches?

Question

Jesus said he upon this rock(the confessionf that christ was the Son of God) I will build my church.

But I look around and see many different churches that taech many different beliefs.

If you have seen my earlier questions today you will understand this one. I posted it a few minutes ago but it got put into the bisexual transgengered section so I deleted it to put it in the R&S section

Tasha some believe that the Catholic church is the apostate church. that the Christian church was one in spirit, truth and doctrine then came the falling away or the Catholic church then with the reformation came the protest churches which some say is an apostasy od the apostasy. Notice I said some say and believe this, not that I am saying it because as a pagan I believe all spiritual paths lead to Diety.

Star paganism is different we do not tell people they are going to hell if they differ from us and we do not believe in one supreme God.There is no one right way in paganism, but listen to Christians they do say there is only one right way. See the difference?

Itchey you left out the apostasy unless you are Catholic and believe that the protest churches are the apostasy. come to think about it I think that is what you are sayng but please correct me if I am wrong.

Answer 1

Picture it this way. There is a great prize in a shiny cup open to anyone. There is also someone who does not care if he wins, just as long as YOU do not. So how to keep you from winning?

Stack the table full of shiny cups, several stacks high. Most are empty. So many cups most people give up looking. Remember, it is only important that you lose, not that he win.

There you have why there are so many churches. Satan knows he will lose anyway. It is only important that you lose with Satan. That you give up before finding the true religion.

Answer 2

First, for Christians there is only one church... the body of Christ. I assume you mean to say why all the different denominations (not churches). Christians are human and have differences in opinions just like any other group. Why are there so many variations of paganism? People choose to adhere to the particular variation that resonates most with them.

Answer 3

There is to be no divisions 1 Cor 1:10 we are to speak the same things. Jesus only establish one church. He did not create -churches.

Answer 4

All churches that believe that Jesus died for their sins, rose again, so those who believe that can have everlasting life are his churches. The people who belive are the church, not the building. Different church organizations just have a different way of worshipping and rituals. In the end all Christian churches have a common goal, Christ.

Answer 5

People will always find stuff to qubible about. They go so far as to form a new church because they disagree on the order of worship, etc.

Silly stuff and serious stuff....

Answer 6

because men are not perfect and all think they know best. the church is built on Christ not any denomination.

Answer 7

read the bible and find one that uses that as it's foundation . A lot of churches don't

Answer 8

I think there are different churches because of people. THEY are different...Jesus stays the same...Happy New Year, Rider!

Answer 9

Because established churches are a scam to get money from their ignorant followers.

Answer 10

christians can't agree on anything. so even the most small difference of opinion warrants a different church. oh, and one more thing each one is wrong according to the others.
