    I too had difficulty narrowing down the search to just one religion. I ended up comparing the Mormon Sect to general Christians. After reviewing all the monotheistic religions it does seem that the God they all worship seem to be relatively similar in one way or another. There is not enough evidence to call it the same God, as each and every religion has picked and chosen what they want to believe and have geared their religions to fit their own needs through the different cultures and locations throughout the world. This is why we have Catholic, Mormon, Lutheran, Orthodox, Baptist, and the list goes on. They have all branched off of one another because they did not like some of the doctrine that were being practiced.…

    I do know that they a lot of them do not smoke or drink. They frown on sex before marriage. Sex before marriage is a common thing these day. I know they worship twice a week around here. They differ because other religions drink and smoke. They do not frown on sex before marriage as bad. They all believe that there is life after death, except for the Jehovah’s Witnesses do not, that once you are dead you are dead. I know they do not celebrate any holiday. They do not believe you need to celebrate anything for any reason. They do not associate with anything to do with the holidays. Where most of the other religions celebrate our normal holidays, I know some of the other ones do not celebrate Halloween believing it is the devils…

    The Bible supports social justice, as we have a covenant with God because “if he would do that us then we had better do that with one another” (Fischer, 2013) and look out for one another and become accountable to each other. That is one reason that government must be limited in the amount of power they yield on making policy or decisions that will affect a person’s inalienable rights of having the ability to make their own choices as to what they feel is best for themselves. In using a form of Sphere Sovereignty, “Citizens are required to participate in the political process as a means of limiting tyranny” (Fischer, 2013, p.2) and to contribute to solving the problems. There has to be limits on the powers on government as they “ought not impose a uniform policy on all” (Monsma, 2008 p.119) as there would then be no true covenant relationship as they would not be doing what is best or fair to all, as we all have the same inalienable rights. Leviticus 24:22 “You shall have the same rule for the sojourner and for the native, for I am the Lord your God.” (Holy Bible, ESV).…

    One clear similarity involving both the 1925 Baptist Faith and Message and 1963 Baptist Faith and Message is the preamble. Both architects took great care in wording the preamble content. Herschel Hobbs called the 1963 preamble "as important as any other part." In both the 1925 and 1963 the preamble clearly states the document is not a Southern Baptist creed and both chairmen were adamant about emphasizing that point. Both viewed their respective documents as a guide rather than a conscience authority.…

    Jehovah is considered to be the personal name of God, the only true god, and the creator of all things. Catholics however, do not have a personal name , only recognizing God as God. (Holden 2007) His outstanding qualities are love, justice, wisdom and power. A witness is an individual who states facts from direct personal knowledge or views of truths of which he/she is convinced of. Thus, the term “ Jehovah’s Witness”, which describes someone that proclaims the truth that Jehovah is a loving and just God, deserving of our love and obedience. Both religions follow Jesus Christ, and put faith in the sacrifice he provided for the salvation of mankind. That he is the Son of God. Mr. Caniff stated, Jesus rules as King of God’s Heavenly Kingdom, which will soon bring peace on earth . Jesus has never claimed equality with God and is not a part of a Trinity. He is not omniscient or omnipresent. Jesus was a created being, who god created everything else…

    The second major belief is that most humans will be sent to Hell after they die. Only those few who have been "saved" will go to heaven. Salvation requires repentance of sins and trusting Jesus as one's Lord and Savior. People who have been saved and make it to heaven will not all be treated equally. Believers who have done many good deeds will be rewarded more in heaven; believers who have led an evil life will be rewarded less.…

    However, some new religious movements have taken this positive charisma, created a negative message and amplified it. Charismatic authority was perceived in a positive context by Weber, which made him unseeing to the oppressive prospective of charisma. Zeitlin (2001:238) states that Weber approved of demagogy intended to “bind the masses to the leader.” In addition, the “Peoples Temple” was a new religious movement created by the charismatic Jim Jones designed to spread Christianity, socialism and racial equality. However, dwelling on the errors of the Bible, Jones was encircled by people who bestowed validity on his saviour-ship in putting trust into his revelations. By acting on the emotions of his followers, Jones’ theatrical acts made him…

    The Southern Baptist (SBC) is a group of Christian believers based in the United States that is generally a conservative Christian denomination. It gets the name Southern from the fact that it was founded and rooted in the south. The Southern Baptist Convention became a separate denomination in 1845 when there was a regional split with northern Baptists over the issue of allocated funds. Although monies and missions were the main reason they split many think slavery was the main reason why the northern and southern Baptists split, there were three other key reasons to why they split as well.…

    Southern Baptist is a Christian denomination. Baptists view the Bible as the upmost authority in creating and molding a person’s life. Southern Baptist views all people as equal because The Lord sees no color, but does believe that the man in the home has the authority and the responsibility to watch over and protect his family. The recognition of Heaven and Hell is highly important. Those, who do not follow or recognize God, as the one and only are sentenced to an eternity in Hell, without the chance of ever reaching Heaven.…
