    The thread title is self-explanatory: which Christian denomination do you consider to hold the most truth, second only to the one you belong to? If you weren't a (insert the label that defines you denominationally here), what do you think you'd be? You're welcomed to bring arguments to support your answer. :confused:

    If I weren't a Primitive Baptist I'd probably check out a couple of these non-denominational Grace Bible groups I'm aware of.

    How about you?

    Not sure if it is a denomination but Evangelical Free Church of America comes closest to my brand of Baptist.

    Otherwise, I guess I would have to go with a "non"-denominational church, although in my experience most non-denominational churches used to have Baptist in their titles.

    I see from your profile you are located in Eastern Europe. So, it's an idiomatic expression. It could also be expressed as your home church. That is the congregation you are a member of, regularly attend, and support.

    I’m sorry :Unsure I meant that you seem to be looking for a specific denomination of church to be part of?

    Not really. I was baptized Eastern-Orthodox, but I don't really know if I completely adhere to the Eastern-Orthodox doctrine. I guess I'm Eastern-Orthodox, but with some nondenominational views. :Unsure

    If I wasn't a Latin Rite Christian, I would be an Eastern Orthodox adherent. When the great schism of Christianity occurred in the 11th century, our Eastern Orthodox brothers continued on with the same basic Christian teachings and doctrines that were handed down from the earliest centuries of the newly emerging Christian Church.

    I'm an indy fundy Baptist, & my congregation doesn't believe any man-made doctrines of worship. Next for me isn't a denom, but is NONDENOMINATIONAL, long as a given congregation doesn't believe any man-made doctrines such as the preterism lie, the KJVO myth, the blasphemous, heretical "oneness/modalist" garbage, nor any of the other man-made "isms" that Satan has tried to insert into Christianity.

    I am Pentecostal Holiness and love the old Methodist way. As both revivals have seemed to cease, the Baptist or non-denominational church would be my second pick. Non-denominational... They do not seem to have much doctrine and I worry abut that.

    Before membership in the Baptists churches I have attended, Missouri Synod Lutheran Church was my favorite.

    Do you see salvation from their viewpoint, or from more of a Baptist one then?
