The divided Christian Church. What happened?


Why are there so many Christian churches and different beliefs in our world today?
How did this division happen? The one true living God isn't divided so why is His church so divided?
It is interesting to note that in the original Greek in which the New Testament was written the word translated as "Antichrist" doesn't mean something that is so opposite God that it would obviously be "Antichrist", but it means pseudo-christ. In other words looks like Christ in appearance and uses the words of Christ such as love and acceptance, but denies the truth that Christ declared such as obedience to His word and love for Him being very much related.
The Holy Bible declares that there is only one way to God. The Holy Bible is the only Book in history that has proven itself over and over again as the inspired Word of God. Tab 1 & 2  Even common sense declares that there can only be one way to God since He is and teaches absolute truth.  The fact that He has instructed man through His word is a great indication that He cares about teaching us the Truth about Himself and how to be with Him in a holy place of perfection. Surely it is not simply left up to us to only accept Him because God has to be in on the whole acceptance procedure since He is the Judge after all.  If it were left up to us to decide how to come to God then He would definitely owe Cain an apology! (Genesis 4:3-7)  So what is the correct way that was designed by God Himself according to His Word?  Where did the changes to the original way come from?  Could those changes that were made be politically motivated? (for power, control etc.) (The word Church in the original Greek language is: ekklesia  which means "called out ones")

 Politically motivated change to the church




  • Tab 1
  • Tab 2
The Book of Isaiah was written approximately 700 years before Jesus Christ was born and over 2100 years before Christopher Columbus' journeys and states: "It is He (God) that sitteth upon the circle of the earth,"  (Isaiah 40:22)  Under the inspiration of God, the prophet Isaiah, living in a time when people believed that the earth was flat, wrote this truth of a circular earth, which wouldn't be verified until long after his death.  This is only one of many of such evidences of a God "breathed" book.

It truly takes a great deal of faith to believe the evolution theory which states that in the beginning, there was nothing, and that nothing somehow exploded, and that explosion created everything in the order that it is in now!   Any explosion will now only create a mess and not any kind of order or life of any kind. The evolution theory is based more on fantasy than any scientific evidence.  To become scientific fact, a hypothesis has to observed, repeated, verified or subject to experimentation to exit the status of hypothesis and become fact.  The evolution theory so called can not be observed, repeated, verified or proven through experimentation.  Also add to this scientific fantasy called evolution that there aren't any, nor records of any missing links between lower forms of life and higher forms of life. Not just between apes and humans but between many thousands of forms of life here on earth. When you also add to this the fact that different species can not procreate together, but can only procreate according to their "kind", the Biblical design account becomes the only viable and logical one.  If the Designer has chosen to keep Himself shrouded in mystery for His purposes here on earth, then that is His choice, although "The heavens declare the glory of God;
and the firmament sheweth his handy work..
" (Psalm 19:1)

 

 

 


Christian Church history, what does it tell us?  What did the Apostles believe and teach?

This project isn't designed to criticize nor insult anyone’s faith or belief, but it is designed to reveal the history of the original church which was founded on the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ (the gospel or "good news"). This study is designed to show what His Apostles believed, taught and founded in the Book of Acts, and what they were each willing to die for.  Finally it is designed to show what happened after that original church was established and how that by political maneuvering, was forced by mandate of law to change the original teachings into a man-made way of an emperor of Rome.  This is purely an informational site. There is absolutely nothing being sold. There are no hidden agendas nor attempts to push anything but the historical truth of what really happened to the original Christian church. This study is a springboard for you to find the way and the truth established by the original church founded by the blood of Jesus Christ. It is a time line for the structure of the Christian church after 33 A.D.

This study does assume the validity of the Holy Bible and also the Biblical fact that it is impossible for God to lie. (Hebrews 6:18)  As the Holy Bible instructs us to "Study to show yourself approved unto God," it behooves us to know the Truth for ourselves and to not take anyone's unsubstantiated teachings nor opinions of the matter. Nor should we blindly trust the non Biblical human traditions that were started a long time ago and founded by political maneuvering.
Please note that we are not examining every belief that man presently has in the world today.  We are focused on Biblical Christianity and on the inspired teachings that God Himself endorsed through Jesus Christ, the Apostles and the prophets.  Jesus Christ emphatically declared that no one comes to God but by Him.  This is quite the dogmatic statement today in this politically correct world of accept-ism. What else did Jesus Christ teach?


Our team is determined to verify each historical fact and present it in as a concise way as possible.  We ask that you will search for yourself these Christian Church historical facts and then make your own decision.  
It can be quite shocking to understand the truth of what actually happened...

So let’s begin this study (see below)...
