Its a bit perturbing that this forum only seems to recognize the 3 divided types of Christianism: Protestant, Catholic, Orthodoxy.
I happen to consider such divisions the work of Satan, and those who buy into them have vested interests in collecting tithes, and thus are sacramentarians: not True Christians.
As a mystic, I see Christ's teachings as being transcendental to church. In the parable of the good Samaritan, he clearly shows that one's actions are what are vital, not which symbols one wears.

To start. I in the province do not have much time to read the Scriptures here. Secondly. The Orthodox Church greets when Christians themselves interpret the Bible .. .in result we do not contradict the Canon in our Church . Think about why so! If your position is correct and from God, then tell me the names of other Christians who believe like you and who lived in the 6th or 8th century. Or even in the 21st century. Who compiled the canon in the 2nd century? which group of Christians? name and region? “in result we do not contradict the Canon in our Church” No kidding, your church puts the church first then God’s Word second. “tell me the names of other Christians who believe like you and who lived in the 6th or 8th century.” You still don’t get it facepalm I don’t follow other Christians, saints, church fathers, popes, priests, bishops, etc. I follow God’s Word, I follow Christ. Christ is my head, my cornerstone. “Who compiled the canon in the 2nd century?” God did.

In What is your following of Christ? the names of Christians of the 2nd century and the place you did not name!

What kind of questions are these? “the names of Christians of the 2nd century and the place you did not name!” Wait, so God didn’t preserve His word?

13: 7 Remember your teachers who preached to you the word of God, and, beholding the passing of their lives, imitate their faith. Heb. 13: 7 What are your mentors in the faith except the Apostles? People who simply showed their Christian lives in faith The Word of God You have not even answered what your obedience to Christ is about

No, not 3. There's a section for Christianity as a whole. The 3 subboards are just for the most biggest types or well known types. General Christianity or other types go into the main one. If the 3 subboards were emphasised with too much importance, I'd at least list Protestants first but I really don't care about it And I do and don't agree with the division. Christ brought division He said in scripture. He wants His people separated from the rest and for them to be found by certain characteristics and such. And totally agree on the good Samaritan thing Division from non believers, not each other :P On that note, certain groups do consider other groups to not be true believers so I suppose that is moot.

13: 7 Remember your teachers who preached to you the word of God, and, beholding the passing of their lives, imitate their faith. Heb. 13: 7 What are your mentors in the faith except the Apostles? People who simply showed their Christian lives in faith The Word of God You have not even answered what your obedience to Christ is about Remember your teachers, sure. Does it say reverence your teachers? No. Does it say idolize them? No. Does it say praise them? No. It says remember, as in don’t forget. Wait a minute... the Holy Spirit is a teacher, 1 Corinthians 2:13 KJV [13] Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. Don’t forget the Holy Spirit while you’re idolizing men for the things they did that would not be possible without God! 😉 Philippians 1:11 KJV [11] Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God. Revelation 19:5 KJV [5] And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. Psalm 34:1 KJV [1] I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. Psalm 86:12 KJV [12] I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my and I will glorify thy name for evermore. Psalm 113:1 KJV [1] Praise ye the Lord . Praise, O ye servants of the Lord , praise the name of the Lord . “What are your mentors in the faith except the Apostles?” The Word of God. “You have not even answered what your obedience to Christ is about” It’s about obeying Christ. Following Him. Faith in Him.

Jas. 2:26” That’s where the obedience part comes in facepalm “What is your obedience to Christ? How is he present in your life?” Obeying His commandments. I believe on Him, He is my savior because I could not save myself from my sins. I pray in His name and my prayers are answered.

God is love, he always answers .. but your -sola faith- alone is not salvation. Where are your good deeds? I see that you are only engaged in trolling here .. this is not good!

Wait a minute... the Holy Spirit is a teacher, 13: 7 Remember your teachers who preached to you the word of God, and, beholding the passing of their lives, imitate their faith Hebrews 13: 7 Scripture here speaks of people but yes they were under the guidance of Holy Spirit because: 11. And He (God) placed some as apostles, others as prophets, others as evangelists, others as pastors and teachers ... (Ephesians 4: 10,11) The Lord Jesus Christ said: I will create my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it (Matthew 16:18). That is, the Lord promises that the forces of evil will not have victory over the Church, including through the distortion of the dogma. She will always remain the same glorious Church, not having a spot, or blemish, or anything of the sort, but ... holy and unblemished (Ephesians 5:27), the house of God ... a pillar and a statement of truth (1 Timothy 3:15), what it is represented by the apostles in the Scriptures. There is another promise that the Lord has given. He said: Behold, I am with you always, to the very end of the age (Matthew 28:20). The Lord not only promises that the Church will in itself be stable, He promises that He will be with His Church all the days until the end of the age. Here, as we see, there is not a word that the Lord is going to pause from the II to the XVI century. Or, especially, for the XIX century.

Who am I to boast of my good deeds? Where are your good deeds? Who are you to boast? I didn’t engage in any trolling. You take it as trolling because you do not understand. Faith is what saves you, works are what prove your faith and make it perfect. Your goal here is to discredit me. Why? I don’t know. You see me as a threat? I don’t know, I don’t care really, but you do it constantly. You talk about me randomly in threads for no reason shrug it’s odd behavior, anyone can go through the threads and see it. I don’t do it to you shrug You say I try to instigate and provoke when it is you who does it constantly. You get triggered by my posts and threads because you’re offended at what I have to say, much like the Pharisees were offended at what Christ said. If I am wrong, then you have nothing to worry about and you should ignore me, right? No, you can’t ignore me, like the Pharisees couldn’t ignore Christ.

no .. I just do not agree with you and show my position. For example - An important barrier between us .. I believe that the apostle Peter was the messenger of Jesus. You are not believe it! I wrote many times why it is so..Or do you think that here only your opinion is important? Then this forum will be unicellular .. more opinions are it's good. Mister If you do not sleep and talk to me as if you think that I want to provoke you .. but it's your actions like this... so I try to ignore you .. but as I already wrote, it's impossible to stop someone for his position. It is strange to hear from you about the Pharisees. if I'm wrong for you .. why don't you ignore me? You have a night .. you do not sleep and write to me. it's strange for me

I already wrote a lot of things on this forum and I noticed that you instantly respond to messages without even reading it. If you are not ready to accept the opinions of others even as an alternative view and all stigmatize I will remind you that you are also a human being..all people lie correctly ?? But then why are you at the forum? You absolutely do not understand my position here because English is not native to me .. difficult to articulate more and more correctly so you will build your own strange guesses by carping at words. I'm not saying that I'm cool and perfect .. but I really understood your position. And I conclude that this is just your dogma. Nothing else!

I have an opinion just like you and I want to share it. I’ve heard you want to remove me from this forum, I’ve never wished to do that to you. Seems you do not want me to share my opinion shrug “You have a night .. you do not sleep and write to me. it's strange for me” I didn’t stay awake at night to talk to you, I didn’t sleep for other reasons, but if you feel you must flatter yourself, go ahead.
