WHY MANY DENOMINATIONS?

If we are all serving the same God, why then are there many denominations? The main reason is that the churches interpret the scriptures different from others. But the Bible says;

2 Peter 1:20 KJV

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

God is His own interpreter. When He says anything, He does not need anyone to explain what it means. For instance when He said 'let there be light,' the interpretation was that 'and there was light.' A virgin shall conceive a bare a son and she did and that is His interpretation. In this end time, He said it will be as it was in the days of Lot and that's exactly what we are seeing now- homosexuality on the increase. Many countries including America, Britain, France and New Zealand have voted to legalise homosexual marriage.

Unfortunately, the churches are giving meaning to God's word and thereby twisting or adding or taking away from it. And so we now see people explaining why women can preach even though the scriptures say no woman should be a priest. They sprinkle water on people instead of baptising them in water by immersing them, the Lord's Supper has now turned into breakfast. No wonder the Bible says;

Matthew 15:9 KJV

But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.

God's pure word has been replaced with creeds and dogmas making the Word of God of no effect.

Romans 3:4
God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar


Galatians 1:8

But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.

2 Timothy 3:5 KJV

Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.

The warning here is that if we add or take away from God's Word, there is punishment for us.

Revelation 22:19 KJV

And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

God is not interested in a denomination or a church. He is interested in the church, which is the universal body of Christ and they are the called out and separated ones. He is interested in the individual, you, who will separate himself/herself from every unbelief.

In this end time, He has been put out of the church and the Bible says He is standing at the door. But if you will hear His voice and open to Him, He will come in and dine with you.

Revelation 3:20 KJV

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Come Out of Her!

Revelation 18:4 KJV

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Remember that God will not judge you by which church you attended but by how you treat His word.
