The Varied Types Of Maryland Churches

By Roger Wagner


It is good to be religious. It is much better to be a Christian. There are many benefits that are associated with leading a Christian life. Christianity is a source of hope. The hope that present day life will get better and also the hope that there is a future and that future is heaven or otherwise called paradise. In addition, Christianity is a source of morals. These are needed so that to leave well with others and to please The Creator. In Maryland, USA, one will find a number of Maryland churches. There are several Christian denominations in America.

Of course, the Catholic Church has a presence in the beautiful state of Maryland. Over the last few centuries, Catholicism has spread wildfire. Indeed, the Bible says that when Christianity will spread to the four corners of planet earth then the end of time will come. Catholics have done a good job as far as fulfilling this great prophesy.

A believer is Catholicism is called a Catholic. There are billions of Catholics, all over the world. The most Catholic nations include the US, Italy, Brazil, and the Philippines. At first, there was only Catholicism. Latter, the Protestant movement started in different parts of Europe including France, Germany, and United Kingdom. The US has many Protestants. There are a number of Protestant denominations.

In Maryland, one will find many Protestant churches. One is likely to encounter a number of Anglican and Lutheran churches. Anglicanism started in Britain and latter spread to other parts of the world. For the case of Lutheranism, the origin is Germany. Christianity was brought to America by Europeans. Presently, there are very many American missionaries. Christianity is expanding fast in many countries.

Christianity was exported by the Europeans to America. On the other hand, Americans took Christianity and made it much better and latter exported their versions of Christianity to other countries on earth. It all started with the formation of Baptist Church by a number of devout American believers. Latter, Americans formed Adventist and the Mormon Church.

Christian denominations have many similarities. That is due to the fact that they all consider the Bible as holy and supreme. For the case of most Christians, they go to church on Sunday. This is the official day of rest when people should take a break from work and worship. For the Adventists, that is not case. Actually, they worship on Saturday.

Whether one goes to church on Saturday or Sunday is not a big deal. That is a trivial issue that some Christians like to blow out of proportion. What matters the most is that one follows the messages that are preached in Church because that is what will guarantee entry into heaven. A believer should be more than just a Sunday Christian.

America has always been a Christian nation. That will not change in future. A big percentage of the American population consider themselves as Christians. Most American Christians usually say that they normally pray and read the Bible on a regular basis. The founding fathers of America were very devout Christians. That is why they made The Ten Commandments to be part of parcel of the American constitution.
