Christian Study - Denominationalism

Denominationalism

Denominationalism is something Jesus prayed would not happen. The Bible predicted that it would happen and warned against it. In the first century, there was only one church. Over the years, Satan has divided religions into the numerous sects we have today.


1 Cor 1:10
10 Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.   (NKJ)

John 17:20-21
20 "I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word;
21 "that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me.   (NKJ)

Rom 16:17
17 Now I urge you, brethren, note those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and avoid them.   (NKJ)
