All of Reformation Christianity or what is termed in our day as denominational Christianity is only 490 years old. The Baptist Church as of is only 403 years old. They were never heard of before AD 1609.

Church Father Christianity or what evolved and developed into the Roman Catholic Church can only trace itself back to about 100 to 150 AD in its roots of conception and development.

But Apostolic Christianity is 1974 years old as of this year. Apostolic Christianity, an experienced Christianity, is CLASSICAL CHRISTIANITY - it is the original! And everything developed after 100 AD looks nothing like the original recorded in the Book of Acts AD 33 which records the 'acts' or activity of the first church in history including Paul's missionary journeys..

It behooves the student and the scholar to seriously take inventory of the events of history and what the Bible presents. Where are you in your Christianity? Is it Biblical or developed by the understandings and thinkings of man throughout Church History? You cannot risk your eternal destiny to the teachings of men, but you are safe in identifying with Apostolic Doctrine as set forth by the Apostles in AD 33. The Apostle Paul was extremely emphatic about this exact subject and set forth the will of God in:

Gal 1:8 (KJV) 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.

Gal 1:9 (KJV) As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.

How about we stop caring about other peoples' religions? You can't prove that any one religion is more "right" than the next, so why bother?

Geeeeeesh. What an obvious anti-Catholic preach.

He should change the title from 'so many churches, which one is right' to 'listen to me spout anti-Catholic rhetoric that I learned from my fundamentalist minister - all of it is wrong but it sounds great and tickles the ears'

I agree with you there Ice, why bother trying to debate which is the correct religion and to stop prying into people's personal beliefs

a) its personal

and

b) downright impossible to come up with a right answer

Amen.

And when people start debating who is right or wrong in religion they usually end up spewing erroneous things about the religion they don't like.

because there are so many sects of the Christian faith. And Christianity isn't the only faith. There's a whole world of religions out there for you to discover.

Do you know that it was prophesied in the Bible that there would come a time when there would be many different churches which would go under the banner of Christianity? Not only that, the Bible revels in this prophecy which explains all this unveiled in the following study.

Revelation 17:1-3, "And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither, I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters; With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness; and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns."
Instead of going with what mr. preacher man says, go with you religious text of choice. That's usually the best way to go about it.

The first and foremost question we must ask is, "who is this woman?" as we search for the answer to this question, we will find that every symbol which surrounds this woman is interpreted in plain language-in this very same chapter.
It's not a woman, but I think you already knew that.

Ahh... you are making the mistake of confusing Roman Catholic with just plain Catholic. Catholosism is around as old as Christ's death....

None are right. Yes they are all right wing, but none are correct. Churches are places to take your money and dictate your thoughts and nothing more!

No. Of course he can't.
It is generally not possible to prove a negative. The burden of proof lies with those who make claims in the affirmative. Can you, or any religionist, prove that any particular church or faith is the "right" one. Before you attempt this you will have to prove the existence of a deity.
