Hey Everyone,
(not sure if this is the right place for this question thread)
Ive got a question that has been on my mind and lead to playing around with it in a way...thought i would ask what your guys views and answers would be. This is also something that atheists or other christians might be curious about.
FRIENDLY QUESTION:
why are there so many denominations (excuse my spelling please) within christianity, yes i do understand and know what each one belives and their view points, so really what im saying is that or food for thought : "all of them ultamately belives in one thing that they all share which is Jesus" we can all agree on that, okay so, without going into each one and being biase lets then say "the reason for the differences or split, is that one group doesnt agree with the other group in terms of how each one translates and therefore 'different' practice within each group" , cool, buuut...if you list on a page the groups and then next to it a short discription on what their belief movemnt (lack of a better word) is...so with everything above in mind, dont you think if each group works together within their belif movement can actually form one unified church but within their belif? (just a curious thought and wanted to hear peoples different answers to what they think). if you still dont understand my question then you can continue reading, if you get it then you can answer without reading the next simplified explanation of my question:
Basically my question in a more visual representation: i know theres many other groups. but lets use these as an example:
Calvinism/reformed group: More theology focused
Angelic group/Methodist: more spiritual path focused
lutherans: more Gospel focused
Pentecostal: more spiritual gift focused
so...think about it, if they worked together in terms of their beliefs without the need to agree they would actually all agree in a way and actually form quite a unified christian church? example: the first group helps with knowing the doctrin, the second group then forms a spiritual path for that person, then using the third group they able to preach the gospels and then using the fourth group they able to use spiritual gifts. would a person not be more fulfiled in that sense? using the above exmample.
again, friendly question
God Bless
