WHO IS A TRUE CHRISTIAN?

My fellow xtian brethren. This question has been on my mind since childhood and it recurs all d time. We called ourselves xtians but deep inside us,we hate each others' doctrines.Y do we av different doctrines is another question.

We called the Catholic idol worshippers coz of the statues they bow down to.

Deeper life xtians see others as sinners and we see them as sadists.

Celestial church and Cherubum & S are called orthodox churches.

Jehovah Witnesses have different view entirely

We see Redeem,Winners and others as fancy churches coz women dress anyhw to their churches.

Olumba Olumba, Jehovah Sharp Sharp and Rev. King's church are seen as occultic churches.

The number of churches in Lagos alone are more than the entire churches in other African nations put 2geda.

Is this what the Whites brought 2 us around 1840s?
I believe we all knw that Nigerians are extremists. I wasn't surprised when I heard pple died taking excess salt 2 prevent Ebola disease.

Who and which church represents true Christianity?

Doing wat bible says is d best

There is only one Church which was founded on St. Peter 2000yrs ago.

The Church that compiled the Bible in the fourth century.

That is the Catholic Church.

All others were founded by men to suit their selfish desires.

None of dem

The answer is simple, first who is a christian? Someone that that has christ-like character and follows Christ's teachings. Now if you see any congregation that majority of its members behave like Christ in their everyday lives, that is d Church.

livinq a christlike life. .havinq fellowshp wit ma family. .any need 4 church? Any offence?

Synagogue..just check ur bible and u will see its the only church mentioned.So make sure you pay ur due tithe only to this church.lol

@OP,

John 4:23

23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.

All individuals who are worshipping God in spirit and in truth(whether they are in Deeper Life, JW. Roman Catholic, Winners. Apostolic Faith, Christ Embassy, RCCG etc. ) as Jesus said above are true worshippers. The church that Jesus established was not a denomination or a building with a corporate name as we see. Don't be deceived.

there is no 'true' church, as long as an organisation is run by imperfect men,we cant xpect perfection...dats y paul says we are d temple of d holyspirit,not made wt physical bricks...we must work out our salvation wt trembling as d book of life isnt sectioned into denominations or churches. On each book is written ur name and urs alone. God help us

ProphetUdeme: Catholic being the first church and mother church .

The catholic church has never been an will never be the first church or th mother church.We pentecostals should stop accepting this blatant catholic lie.

The first church & mother church were the ones establishes by the disciples and the apostles of christ when they gathered in the upper room to pray before pentecost.It had no catholic priest or doctrine in it.They did not worship or regard mary cos though she was there,she was insignificant among them.She wasn't even among the leaders.She obeys & takes orders from the leaders(apostles) & not the other way round.

They continued in prayer & on the PENTECOST was baptised in the holy Ghost.IT WAS A PENTECOSTAL CHURCH & NEVER CATHOLIC.Paul the apostle thereafter raised several other churches during his missionary journey & they were all PENTECOSTAL & NEVER CATHOLIC.

There was no single catholic priest or doctrines there.Rather there were pastors & evangelists & prophets who were filled with the holy ghost.So stop this catholic lies.

1. The church that started Pentecost is the same church that was called "catholic church" by St. Ignatius around 100AD.

2. It was full of Catholic priests and doctrines. The apostles were the priests and they celebrated the body and blood of Christ and forgave sins...among other things.

3. To say that the disciples of the master disregarded the master's mother and that she was insignificant to them shows how pentecostally biased and ignorant you are. There's nowhere she was recorded as taking orders from anyone. Yes, she was not a leader and not worshipped just like she is not a leader now and is not worshipped.

4. Pentecostalism only started a few decades ago. History proves this. Your attempt to force your pentecostal business organizations into the history of the first century makes you look stupidd.

5. Paul never started another church like your scamming pastors. He only extended the Catholic church Jesus had founded on St. Peter. There is only one church.

6. History itself proves that there has been an unbroken line of apostolic succession from the apostles to the present day pope, bishop and priests. The writings of the early church fathers prove it. Your pentecostal shops of men that teach contradictory is not the church Jesus founded. Jesus church cannot contradict itself.

I will if you can show me the Church Jesus founded.

Or is it an invisible secret cult that cannot be seen?

1. The op asked for the true church and I told him. Why are you suicidal over that?

2. What you are saying is that the gates of hell prevailed against Jesus' Church...despite Jesus promise that it wont happen?

You see that you're anti-Christ.

The Holy Spirit said "The Church is the pillar and foundation of the truth." 1Tim 3:15

And you say the contrary.

Do you also mean that the Church Jesus founded is a false church?

Why are you contradicting Jesus and the Holy Spirit?

emmyskies: Your Bible and the guidance of the Holy Spirit

The apostles never had a bible...yet they were the truest Christians.

How? They had the Church.

It was that same church that compiled the bible in the synod of bishops in Rome under pope Damasus in 382.

italo:

I will if you can show me the Church Jesus founded.

The church Jesus christ created is WE (the united body of christians worldwide who serve Him in truth and in spirit) not 'the buildings and the tiles'. Get this into your brain

italo:

Yes, she was not a leader and not worshipped just like she is not a leader now and is not worshipped.

Lmao
Are you serious?
Maybe worship has another meaning

italo:

Judging by what you have so far defined the church to be, you are wrong. They were the truest because they had the Holy Spirit.
On a second thought do you mean they didn't have the writings of moses and the prophets with them?

The Church is and has always been the assembly of Christians not some organisation or building.
..and the Church is Catholic (in its true meaning as St. Ignatius described it)- universal.

Na, they were directed by the Holy Spirit. All those while, their deeds were recorded and added to make up our existing Bible so we can learn and know

I suggest you read Revelation chapter 12.it shows d history of the true church from the OT to the end of time.The chapter as is the whole book contains some symbols, but if u compare scriptures with scriptures,you will understand...e.g a woman is rep as a church-rev 12:1,jer 6:2,2cor11:2,eph 5:23-27.

Unfortunately, this idea is what has led to a plethora of churches with differing doctrines. So can't be right. there always has to be a body that is entrusted with interpreting laws,customs and tradition.the same is true with Christianity. From antiquity and through historical fact you'll find a particular church has always laid claim to be this body.it appears other churches have come about via schism from this church.

Now that you are all saying the bible and d Holy spirit. Then You do you prefer ur church 2 oda churches. Y don't you worship @ home. Y do d gospel churches hate d celes and etc

op

Christ founded Christianity, and he is the foundation. He never left sincere people in the dark as to the identity of the true Christianity.

Questions like:

Are all religions pleasing to God?

How can we identify the true religion?

Who are God’s true worshipers on earth today?

These questions are biblically treated below, and that could be a good start to finding the right Christian religion:

If you serve him in spirit and truth, why do you have millions of contradictory doctrines?

Do the spirit and truth contradict themselves?

Or do you serve millions of spirits and truths?

Also...you didn't show the church. You just said "we bla bla..."

If one wants to write to the church as Paul did, to whom do we address the letter? You and your family?

alentyno:

If only you knew you were laughing at your own ignorance...

Please define worship.

And keep this picture in mind as you do.

By your definition, are they worshipping the bible?
