Is God happy with all the different denominations?

What happened to one church?

Why are so many people not willing to associate with others because of a few minor differences in their religions?

As long as you believe in the One True God, shouldnt all the little stuff be minor in comparison?

Wouldnt we reach out to more, help more, if we could all work together.

Why is it all a compitition?

Its not.

Its not that difficult, we need to except each other, join together as CHRISTIANS.

And be Christ Like.

Sometimes I think we forget what that means.

I'd love to hear your opinions.

I agree! I've always wondered about all of that, why there are so many different religions... and shouldnt we become the religion that Christ was?? Wouldnt that make everything so much better? =)

You know, in heaven there won´t be denominations but the church of Christ. I think that the problem are not the denominations but the fight between them, tha lack of unity between pastors. The big commandment and the law resumed in the bible is LOVE. Love God, love the others, and love yourself. The ones who don´t love, don´t know God, cause GOD is LOVE.
Thanks for allowing me to share my views, and I look forward for more pieces of writings of yours, cause I like you very much. Kiss **

thanks for reading, and yes i agree that we should all love each other, i dont think the problem lies nesisarily in the denominations but in the fighting they produce towards one another.

beyond clarity

Jesus said a kingdom divided against itself will not stand. Im glad people are starting to realise this. There is true and false alike in every denomination. We need to see Christ inside of everyone or we have missed the plot.

GOD IS LOVE.

Very nice work.
