If you really want to have personal relationship with GOD, then you need to ask GOD himself, and get ready not to be "boxed" buy church POV (point of view)...

Here is a material for you to encounter GOD, not knowledge of GOD. Be blessed

They all do. Christ is the head of all denomination.

But it's a very lengthy subject. I'm sure Decky, and some brothers in here can explain in detail on the difference.

My simple opinion: Different Church culture and interpretation of doctrine but all worship same Triune Godhead.


I'm more curious as to why you said cult like Church? Too modern?

I see. Yeah too modern for my taste.

dumc?

Um, that's the one near a Nestle factory right? I'm still getting use to the roads here.

I guess so. There's one in Sunway, shouting and I don't understand what he's trying to preach..I left coz the guy really pestered me a lot.

I buka Thread 8 then

No objection means case dismiss in 5 min.

This video is helpful to understand the reformation:

That's where the major split first happens between the Roman Catholics (RC) and the Protestants (P's); and it isn't just because of some random reason, if you've watched the video, you'll see why.


Let me know if you don't understand anything in the video.



Anyway, the Anglicans (I go to an anglican church ), baptist, reformed baptists, methodists and the like tend to differ on how they DO church, but they tend to differ in some minor ways (e.g. membership, infant baptism, who can take the communion) but they generally are in agreement in the core doctrines of Christianity i.e. The gospel (That Men are sinners saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ and he rose from the dead on the third day), The trinity and the like. But in today's day and age, many of these denominations have loosened up and so one baptist church might not be like the other. (i.e. one Baptist church might believe in vastly different things from another) So hence the problem for you: You could attend a baptist church but then it could be cultish because it has gone astray.


My advice to you to read and pray (at the same time): It's of maximal importance that you know who this God is that you're having a relationship and what he has done for you and how you should be responding to Him. Because like CS Lewis sad: Christianity, if false, is of no importance. But if true, is of infinite importance!

PS you could try visiting CERC this sunday, it's reformation day so I think the members there would be more than happy to talk to you about your questions!

Yeap, Damansara Utama Methodist Church, near Nestle.

pester you as in joining the church?

No dude...

Some "Churches" believe that the gospel is about us obeying God so that he will bless us with material blessings AKA the prosperity gospel, but when we check the scriptures, we know it to be false!

Likewise, some churches believe that it's not Christ alone who saves, but also the stuff we do to please him, but in Galatians, Paul curses the false teachers who taught something OTHER than the gospel!

So no, it's not just a diffferent interpretation of the Godhead, but a complete different understanding of scripture.

Pester me if I'm single. At that time I wasn't.

Same meaning lah,

Different interpretation will lead to different understanding.

The same guy who keep shouting? You mean the guy who preach there?

Okay I go post new topic see you guys there
