Unity Church???

Hi everyone,

I don't know where this post fit in so im posting it here.
I really do like the unity church but want to find out the truth about this type of Christian church. Ive heard that its a false religion and a cult but every time i find something that i finally fit into its bad and not good for me

Thanks
Lu

I don't know much about Unity church, but "only finding things that are bad for you" could be a problem. If so, rather than ask man's opinion though, try to ask God what to do next.

Every denomination has people calling it bad names, saying bad things about it.

Well, my post probably doesn't help much, so I'll step aside and let others post their opinions too.

It's hard to find the right church. Unity Church does not sound Christian though.

Unity is part of the New Thought movement, which emphasizes positive thinking and affirmations to create the life you want. They deny the divinity of Jesus, rather stating we all have the Divine within us, and see Jesus as a "way shower." They believe there is no such thing as evil, since God is all and in all, and God is the only power. I've attended a Unity church a few times and they don't mention Jesus a lot.

In other words its not a Christian church.

Acts 2.42 contains the characteristics of a local, Christian church.

Right. It's kinda like Christian Science (which is considered to be a cult) but the founders were not quite as theologically spooky as Mary Baker Eddy.

Two simple things to do.
1. ask to see the statement of faith that churches have.
2. use the internet to find the web site of that church or of its organisation and see what it says it believes.
