23/07/18That Spirituality is not to be Equated with"Going to Church"

Word count:
"Can two walk together, except they be agreed?"

Book review: Things I wish I'd known before we got married

EXPLORING 80 BRANCHES

Inasmuch as 80% of the population of the United States claims Christianity as their religion and inasmuch as this is my own personal religious heritage, let me explore with my Christian readers additional issues that I think need to be addressed before decision to marry.

There are three major branches of Christiendom. Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, and Protestantism.
While these three agree on certain core beliefs, such as Divinity of Christ, His sacrificial death, and His resurrection from the dead, they disagree on many other issues.

If you are contemplating marriage to someone outside your own Christian tradition, i urge to explore both the traditions and seek to negotiate your differences. To marry simply because you are "in love" and to ignore the implications of these spiritual differences are signs are immaturity... Assuming that both are members of the same Christian tradition, it is time to examine the finer points of belief and practice. 

These differences need to be fully explored if you are contemplating marriage.
