Sometimes I wonder why Christians fight, condemn and criticize other Christians.

Instead of being known for love, Christians are more likely to be known for disagreements and fighting with other Christians.

It is sometimes a pity when even Christian leaders often fight with other Christian leaders.

It is so sad now because instead of we Christians helping ourselves to grow we are the ones now fighting each other

But Why?

May God help us to work in love and not to fight and be in strife with other Christians.

Cheers!

I thank God for the life of every christian no matter their denomination. Arguing sometimes helps, we ned to dialogue more , may the lord help ussss

Christianity has always been like that, there was never a time when two denomination ever agreed on any specific issue, the denominations are more like distinct religions on there own, there is no co-relation between the jehova's witness and the catholics, the angilcan church is a very different religion to lets say the african white garmet church, there is absolute no link between the mormons and the protestant church.

In Nigeria alone you have uncountable denominations each with their beliefs and mode of worship its so bad that most denominations denouce and castigate the others for their belief. infact each denomination as an entity is a religion on its own. when you look at the bible you have different bibles and different translations. why all the confusion and complication? My personal take on this is that christianity is a man made religion hence the confusion and insanity.

All religions are man made.All of them.
As for the confusion of beliefs in christianity,that is nothing new.As a matter of fact,what obtains today was exactly the way it all started after Jeshua exited the scene almost two millenia ago.
It was that very confusion that brought the rise of catholicism and the need to unite under one church and one doctrine.And that need gave birth to that book called the bible that all christians hold in their hands and read.

So it means that the christiandom has gone back to it's roots.

God created us to serve Him, to show love to those who are far and distant irrespective of the denomination, color, race, tribe and more importantly Religion.
The best of you is one who is Godly in words and actions. Sometimes, some unreligion’s person behaves well to some of our Religions leaders. The best Religion is from our heart, which most is pure. People should be very careful in criticizing each other base on their selfish attitude and desire. Share love and peace!

The average human being does the same. It would follow that since Christians are just mere human beings who commit their lives to God but remain fallable, one should not necessarily expect Christians to be perfect. If you ask me, Christians fight cause people fight. Christians condemn cause people can. Christians criticize because people can. Christians disagree cause as humans we can. I do understand that sometimes it seems out of hand but if you focus on the negative, it becomes as big as you want to make it yourself. There will never be a time during our lifetime that this will not be the case. Infact, I do believe the bible says there will never be peace as long as He is not come. Why not focus more on the positive and let go of the negative and accept it as it is :something that you and I can never change.

A very complex doctrinal diversity was what i meant by "going back to it's roots".
Call it confusion if you like.
