What are the different Christian denominations?

The larger Christian denominations are : (in order of numerical size): Catholic (both Roman and Eastern Rites), Eastern Orthodox (Russian, Greek, Romanian etc), Anglican/Episcopalian, Oriental Orthodoxy (Copts, Armenians, Syriacs, Eritreans), Uniting Church in Australia There are various other groups (in alphabetical order): Apostolic Church, Baptist, Brethren, Church of Christ, Church of God, Congregationalist, Disciples of Christ, Lutheran, Mennonite, Methodist, Pentecostal and Assemblies of God, Presbyterian, Salvation Army, Seventh Day Adventist, United Church of Christ. There are also many independent congregations Note : The claims of Mormons (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, often called the Mormon Church), the Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society (the official name for the Jehovah's Witnesses) and Christian Science to be Christian are rejected by most of the denominations mentioned above, and those who leave Mormonism are re-baptised by some of the above groups. The reason for this rejection is that, for example, Mormons hold beliefs regarding God (and other things) which are unacceptable to other denominations e.g. Mormon belief that Christ and Lucifer are brothers.

The reason there are different denominations within Christianity is because the Bible allows for us to have differences of opinions. Within Christianity there are very few essential doctrines that define what it means to be a Christian. Jesus is both God and man (John 1:1,14; 8:24; Col.

2:9; 1 John 4:1-4).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
