Origins of Denominations

January 12, 2021

by Jeffrey W. Hamilton

Over the years, I've done lessons that look at various issues that caused the rise of the various denominations that we see today. Rather than leaving them scattered, I'm gathering them up on a single page so that they will be more easily found.

  • Where Did They All Come From? (Overview)
  • Corruption in Church Organization
  • The Apostles' Creed
  • Infant Baptism
  • Apostolic Succession
  • Music in Worship
  • The Split of the Catholic Churches
  • The Other Side of Church History
  • Pietism
  • The Holiness Movement
  • A Brief History of Mormonism
  • The Charismatic Movement

A related series is Church and State, which examines the impact of attempts to make Christianity a state religion on the practices of the state church.
