Dating different denomination? ⛪

When you want kids and your other half doesn't. It's a make or break situation.

@Brian You should never go off false ideas… because of the following logic: “If fake or counterfeit bank 🏦 notes 💵 exist it’s because real money with real bank notes exist”. If you worked at the bank you’re not taught about fake or counterfeit notes. You’re taught about genuine notes so you’re really familiar with the TRUTH. When a fake note comes in you’d know straightaway that it’s fake because you’re so used to the truth. Familiarise yourself and go off the TRUTH.

If There is one God , one bible ... There was meant to be one truth , one denomination of Christianity, one belief and one teaching . Unfortunately Satan just like the first coming of Jesus has come in our time today and twisted the true words of God with Man made interpretations and teachings of the word

Confession and communion (liturgy) are the most powerful things on Earth. I'm sorry some denominations don't practice this. I do believe that prayer and a relationship with God are even more important but I would never ever leave my church which practices these things and also has saints to follow in their footsteps as examples and for friendship for 'He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living'.

Nuestra relación con nuestro DIOS SANTÍSIMO 💫si es religión. Incluso en algunas versiones de Biblia todavía tienen la palabra religión. Hay mucha ignorancia al respecto. Basta con saber el significado etimológico de las palabras. Y tal cómo está en la Biblia a los seguidores de nuestro DIOS GLORIOSO JESÚS CRISTO ♥️ se nos llama Cristianos

Relationship with Christ is not a religion

Es una denominación presbiteriana donde la manera de gobierno de la Iglesia Locar es distinto dado que es atraves de ancianos y se decide popularmente los diaconos por ejemplo

My fellowship is non denominational. And personally I think that relationships can have problems either way (some may or not go to the same church etc) so it's important to have a firm foundation in Christ for the marriage as a whole.

I believe it could work or better said if you truly seek and follow Jesus, the starting point doesn't matter. You will stick to God's word the bible and some practice will naturally be filtered out then it's about your denomination to be able to correct else you have to leave because you know it is wrong and no change is in sight. It's not about tradition/religiosity it's about the truth of God.

Catholic here, of course I would prefer a Catholic but I realize that diffrerent people of different denominations have different strengths. I was Reformed for years and I appreciate their strong robust systematic theology and for EOs I appreciate their strong view of history like we Catholics do. It can work but it will depend on the circumstances. I'm open to any trinitarian believer that has a strong view of scripture.

My preference would be same belief for instance I don't believe Pentecostal I believe Christianity cause Pentecostal according to my understanding of the word was being celebrated by those that didn't receive the Holy Spirit and on that pentecostal day it then happened to be the same day people spoke in tongues all I'm saying I think it will not work for me unless we have the same beliefs if that makes sense at all

It can def work it falls more on doctrine You can be from the same domination and not work Example would be my domination Baptist You’ll have some churches like mine where we practice modesty more “strictly” in church and a little less outside of church (Ex no getting tattoos) Where as other churches may allow people to wear and do whatever they like whether in church or outside The difference can tear a couple In the end what’s more important is how both ppl churches practice the Word of God

Theological positions can change - I graduated from Bible college 10 years ago and I don’t hold all the same views I did then. We have to be willing to listen and not hold onto things so tightly that we miss what God might be saying/doing. Just because we are part of a denomination, doesn’t mean we agree with everything, so there has to be dialogue. As much as charismatics get things wrong, Reformed theology goes too far the other way - but we grow and bear fruit by learning from eachother.

I personally wouldn't date a non catholic. I was previously reformed Presbyterian so I know it just wouldn't work.

Three words: blood, ink, and pencil. E.g. Pencil - worship style, coffee, flags Ink - baptism and women's roles Blood - Jesus is alive, the Trinity Blood - easy. With ink, you should have broad agreement. Pencil is just detail. Con-evangelical people I've dated love my church's emphasis on preaching but find it difficult with the worship style and practice of charismatic gifts and allowing women to preach. More charismatic/Pentecostal types don't like that we don't allow women to be elders.

At risk of sounding spiritually proud, as a women, I believe it’s incredibly important. Not the label itself, but the pursuit of biblical truth and sound theology, which unfortunately, can be something that’s only encouraged under some denominations. As someone who aligns with reformed theology, I’d be hesitant to fall under the leadership of someone who’s satisfied with the teaching of the charismatic/Pentecostal church. Everyone has their own list of what’s important I guess.

I saw relationships where the wife is Pentecostal and the husband is Baptist and it works very good. But I think... 🤔let's think if someone is Protestant with a Catholic, is not gonna work. In my case, I am Non-denomination, but I would agree with any other Deno only Catholic guy I think No.

I think it all comes down to the people. The whole situation (question) would change if they are willing to actually talk about/explain their own personal theological beliefs rather than that of their denomination.

It would be difficult as I think shared beliefs are really important. For me, if a person wasn't pro-life then it couldn't work (you'd think all Christians would be prolife but sadly not). I'd also struggle if they didn't believe in Biblical creation and the baptism of believers only. I'm not keen on Pentecostal practices, especially speaking in unknown tongues. So yeah, there's a few 😏

I'm a born-again Christian and I don't know anything like that. Either you follow Jesus Christ and are born again in the spirit or you are not. With Jesus Christ there is no demonstration. 🙏🙌

My own experience: you have to pick the important theological hills to die on, otherwise there will be friction of conscience. Examples of key issues I have experienced first hand - Credo baptism vs Paedobaptism - Lordship Discipleship vs Free Grace (and the multitude of qualifiers between sanctification and repentance, the role of Lordship vs being children of God, etc.) - Perscripted Will of God (1 Thess 4:3) vs "Word from The Lord" in Charismatic circles. - role of works in the joint life.

I don’t necessarily think denominations are a deal breaker. There needs to be an alignment of theology and a compatibility on church style, we would need to agree a church we could worship at and serve together.

I am Orthodox and many denominations teach very different things to our Church. So, probably not, unless the person wanted to come closer to or embrace Orthodoxy.

To completely honest we wouldn't have this question if man wasn't constantly trying to change or cherry pick from God's word to have it fit our lifestyle. That's NOT picking up our cross and fully surrendering to his will when we choose from column A and a little from column B. If we all agreed from day 1 from when Paul and the disciples gave this message and people who followed stuck with it we wouldn't be in this boat.

Its very important to stay in same denomination. Needs to be equally yoked. Not any other denomination or will have fighting. God says the man is head and needs the bride to follow and go to his church. If listening to woman like Adam and Solomon did, they fell spiritually (sinned). So best is find in same denomination. Some believe in Oneness and would not work with Trinity believers. I had an INC woman wanted me join and marry I said no for that reason. Focus on God first as priority.

This is a very interesting question. On one hand, theological truth is paramount. On the other, I am certain there will be theologians in heaven who argued with each other while on earth. I hope to come back later to elaborate, but the questions I'd ask myself are: 1.) Would God approve of me switching to my spouse's denomination? 2.) Would I be okay with our children choosing my spouse's denomination? If the answer to either question is no, I'd say to choose someone else.

I have friends from different denominations so I don’t see why a romantic relationship would be different. I’ve also been in a few different churches through the years so I don’t feel like I’m bound by one tradition. (That’s why my profile just says ‘Christian’!) There’s some theology I would want to be on the same page about, but other than that I would be happy – as long as we could freely discuss the ridiculous traditions of their and/or my backgrounds 😄

Personally, I don't really care about denominations. What people write about their faith in their profiles is much more revealing. Even within denominations, people differ to some extent, so it's no guarantee that your views will match. Having said that, I don't mind theological differences as long as they don't go into crazy conspiracy territory 😁

Acredito que seja um desafio e em especial quando envolve filhos Mas se houver respeito e liberdade pode dar certo

Honestly, it's hard enough to find other single Christians in my opinion. Can't afford to be too picky haha😅
