Although Protestants

The end of 20th Century saw denominationalism crop up in the church which was eroding the traditions upon which the Christian trustingness was ground. Although Protestants started a good thing, in the end it spurned out of discipline as many sought to have a denomination that could confine them an identity and a sense of purpose in the carrying out the armorial bearing of Christianity.Denominationalism has been hailed as an evil survey yet ironically it is replacing the ghostly practices. In the old times, it was associated with ethnic, racial or even class segmentation but with modern times it has evolved to stratification through secularization and education.Sociological analytic thinking is playing a part in disseminating this information because of the expression the American society has become polarized especially when it comes to religion (Christianity).Many citizenry have travel from the main stream churches and have found identities in the modern attractive churc hes that do non so much revolve around traditions but are embracing modern ideologies and secularization. In the old times, people utilise to stick to one denomination (church) for a lifetime but instantly things have changed with people switching churches at least once in lifetime.The aspect of denominationalism is a new aspect to me which I thought was a normal thing but its interesting to know that it was based on ethnic or even racial differences in the wee days of Christianity. In the advent of modernization, it has evolved to be discrimination based on education, and doctrinal bases and going world wide.Many people join churches without knowing what or why the churches are founded just to get a religious identity. piety is something that is aimed at convey and uniting people together and denominationalism whitethorn be doing that but the underlying reasons are wrong.The cropping of this practice rose as a result of difficult in maintaining the religious traditions mainly cod to the liberal nature of people wanting to embrace their own identities and in like manner the conservatives loosing their moral authority towards the 21st century.The important message that this article is position through is that the divisions in Christianity should not be there in the beginning(a) place because they contradict the tenets of Christianity. It is a noble imagination but bringing people together does not involve segregation of others in roam to give a sense of identity to a few people.ConclusionDenominationalism has been visualized more negative than positive which I do not equalize because as the article points out, it gives a sense of identity to different people and there is no substance all people can consort in one denomination but that does not call for make-up of many denominations.People do not subscribe to the same doctrinal determine and therefore whichever denomination they are comfortable in, it is their right to go there. The idea of den ominationalism has been portrayed as a division in the Christianity reliance which may be true but I do not agree with it.There is no such thing as the standard way of doing things but somehow things have to be done and as eagle-eyed as they are not contravening the law and are morally right, hence they ought to be followed. According to me this is the basis of denominationalism where it is based on the way we perform different religious practices and rites like singing, praying and preaching.This article has merely ablaze(p) curiosity about denominationalism and it has not dug in of late to bring tangible evidence of what it has caused in the society and what can be done about it. The article has done it as an overview and therefore it should phone the issue in depth and how modern Christians can cope with it in embracing their faith and keeping their identity intact.ReferenceNancy, T.
