Objectives J ust before the dark night spent in the garden, Jesus prayed for those who were to come in the future believing the message of his Disciples. He knew even then that the world would believe in him if his followers were unified. Current statistics on the divisions of Christianity list between 3,000 to more than 20,000 different sects and denominations. Estimates vary widely because even the perimeters of what makes a sect are disputed. Regardless of the exact figures, even the modest estimate of 3,000 boggles the mind of a would be truth-seeker.
Teachings vary as much as names do, each one professing the truth, or some portion of it.
But to the lost of this world and those who seek evidence of a real God, the global Christian Community threatens to consume them in a quagmire of differing beliefs and disputed issues. The Religious Survey Project is designed to research the current beliefs of our communities and provide information toward the achievement of the restored world-wide church objective. I nformation is the key to knowing how to begin, where to make our move, the needs that must be addressed, and how the people of the world can be united into the body of Christ. This survey is a useful tool in gathering that information. You will be assisting local churches and Christians everywhere to better prepare to meet your needs and the needs of others.
