do you feel guilty for leaving your former church? do you feel like you betrayed your former pastor? SHOULD WE REMAIN LOYAL to OUR DENOMINATION. Many ofus have this belief that our denomination is the surest way to heaven. All denomination have great potentials and play important role in improving ones spiritual life. Each denomination focuses on certain values at the expence of others and are therefore more suited for certain individuals deficient in such value. .Some denomination focuses on dogmas and rules. others focus on ethical teaching. No one is superior to the other. They all serve same purpose in different ways. Each denomination promotes one virtue at the expense of the other. While some churches prefers to stabilize the world by keeping to ancient traditions, laws and order, others focuses on improving faith among members. If we examine very well, certain churches seems to attract certain kinds of workers or elders. Those who are fun-loving and opened minded and dislike rules make up the living faith church and Christ embassy. . The perfectionist who love arguing and seek to understand correct interpretation of biblical teachings flood Jehovah witness. Those who are reliable,responsible, rigid to standard principles while transacting business, not prone to certain outburst of anger, old fashioned, and cautious financially are workers in deeper life church or . THOSE WHO ARE OBEDIENT to ancient traditions, FOLLOWS STRUCTURE, Loyalty to ancient tradition are Catholics or Anglican. Each church is like a drug to cure us of certain ailment. NO matter how strong an anti-biotic drug is, it can not be used to cure malaria.IN addition, the dosage required for a kid differs from that of an adult.An undisciplined unloving individual may dislike deeper life or catholic church for being boring and too methodological whereas such person is supposed to develop in such area.instead he prefers to attend a church that promotes fun and places less emphases on laws such as Christ embassy that suits his personality and preaches grace not [aw. It is advisable to maintain ones church while learning certain spiritual values from others. One can also engage in inter-faith dialogue with other denomination A mathematics expert did not learn using one textbook only. He started with one text book, then tried others until he is able to solve equations without consulting any of the textbook Like one learning to drive, he must first handle the steering in the presence of a tutor. As he improves, he no longer needs the tutor presence tp drive.he can drive alone. He doesn’t need to get stuck to that tutor.the more he improves, the more he can try another tutor to learn a different style of driving. His ultimate aim is to be able to drive so well that he no longer needs a teacher. Aone learning to walk throws away the crutches once he has reached perfection THE AIM OF any church is to improve ones spiritual life. Sticking to one denomination that is not improving one spiritual level is not adviseable. Foodforthought |

I fully understand what you are saying just that most people don't want that change because they're not focused on improving spiritual life rather it's material things that concerns them, so they stick to the one that they grew up with.. But the way you stereotyped those denominations is not totally true.. |
