Listen "Sermon Discussions - Asking for a Friend: Christian Denominations"
Episode Synopsis
In this edition of UBC "Sermon Discussions" Jason and Jesse discuss the question: How Did We Get So Many Christian Denominations?The question comes from UBC’s “Asking for a Friend” sermon series. Questions discussed in this episode: Is it a good or bad thing that it feels like there is “a different denominational church on every corner?”Define essential Christianity?How does one recognize “False teaching” versus “difference in doctrinal theology” in denominations (for example: baptizing infants)What denominations, although they identify as “Christian,” are concerning to you and why?Where does Catholicism fit with the definitions from today? Catholicism does seem to hold the Nicene Creed true, but there are other areas that do not seem to hold with other Biblical truths.Sermon application point #3 instructed us to “Resolve to love Jesus’ church in all its denominational forms.” What should that look like for us when considering that so many denominations have accepted and promoted liberal theology and practices that are unbiblical? (Same-sex marriage, pro-choice, errancy of scripture, etc…)What are our secondary convictions at UBC?UBC is a Baptist church. What does it mean to be a Baptist? Is there anything that makes Baptists distinct from other denominations?Briefly explain why UBC is part of the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC)?As a reminder we have created a place where you can send us your questions regarding the sermons or topics we discuss in these podcasts.
