Hello,
Thanks for posting this video.
If you ever make a second edition of this chart, it would probably be relevant to include movements emerging in the wake of Demos Shakarian's Full Gospel Business Men's Fellowship International. Notably, these include the prosperity gospel (Oral Roberts and his followers) and the Branhamist movement (following William Branham and his disciples). Although these movements do not have large denominations that fit your requirements, as movements they largely pass these requirements and are very relevant (especially the prosperity gospel movement).
Another relevant addition would be the Tokoist Church, an offshoo6of the Kimbaguinist Church which you included.
My roommate and I got this chart, and it’s awesome! Thank you for creating this amazing work of art!
I got the chart, and was surprised by the quality of the poster material itself! i watched the videos as they came out, so i knew what to expect as far as content, but the paper you printed on was really nice and sturdy! i appreciate that quality greatly
My only tiny quibbles are, firstly, that Spiritism (not to be confused with Spiritualism) should have been acknowledged as another major post-Swedenborgian religious movement distinct from but ultimately descended from Christianity within the non-Nicene box, seeing as it is actually extremely popular in Brazil in particular; and secondly, that it would have been fun to include the Fujian Manichaeans as the other branch out of Gnosticism which survives to the present day, seeing as while the aesthetics of their practice have been influenced by attempting to remain undercover during the purges of the Song Dynasty against non-Buddhist groups, it is clear that they continue to revere Mani (originally an early Christian himself, although also heavily influenced by Zoroastrianism) as their primary religious figure.
Interestingly, the orthodox Pope is known in French as 'le pope', while the Catholic Pope is 'le pape'.
I couldn't sleep, so I started watching this, thinking it would knock me out quickly. Instead I learned the entire history of christian denominations
good luck with your insomnia
The history of cults*
@joey.99 Aww... what’s wrong? Did every christian denomination stole your lunch money at school? 😂😂😂
@@vh4990 no, they're just wrong. You shouldn't believe in something that has no truth/evidence to it.
Same.
Really hope this religious studies series never ends, you're just too good at it
fr, i just came
The history videos are great too ❤
Then you need this stuff more than many...@@apxxg
By the time this study "ends" we will have arrived at Doomsday!
There won't be time to choose the right "CHURCH" that belongs to Jesus the founder of Christianity!
well, he's got a PhD in religious studies, so he's actually qualified in contrast to other CZcamsrs floating in this space
I am Syrian Orthodox and you represent the Eastern Christian Churches very well.
You do the Eastern Orthodox and Oriental Orthodox a great service.
Thank you

My brother, I am Coptic Orthodox. Hello! I believe there was actually an inaccuracy in his explanation of our churches. I have a Coptic prayer app on my phone, and In the app, there is a prayer for confession. It says that his divinity made itself one with his humanity without mingling or confusion. To mingle means to mix. Forgive me, I am very likely wrong. God bless you.
@@mathan3559 I will rewatch the video.
But I would like to know what you disagree with in the video about our religion?
@@tecumsehcristero He said that we believe in one nature which is a MIX of full humanity and divinity.
@@tecumsehcristero And if we believe that Christ has one nature that is fully human and divine without mingling or confusion, we don't believe in a mix.
What a devoted scholar! I can't believe I get to soak all of this in tuition free...his attention to detail is next-level, and his gracious adjustments after he is given feedback is endearing. His continued fine-tuning is indicative of the passion he has for his topic. So fortunate I stumbled across this 💚
The whole thing is a trip for sure. Watching which forms of magic are accepted from the perspective of those in their time period. In other words, god is the dude picked by our ancestors; giving some, a sense that god himself picked it. Yes, the bible taught slavery, and how to treat your slaves. I can't wait to see Christians pick that option again, because they will say the bible taught it.
@@markstewart4501 chill...
@@brano2times My 'Invisible Santa for adults' COMMANDS I go forth and do this...or I go to hell. It's kind of important. This invisible dude may command me to whip out other nations, sacrifice animals in a temple, etc.
In all honesty, it would be way more "chill" if you would understand the ACTUAL power these different version of Invisible dude really are. Some times Invisible dude tells us to get rid of people that follow the Invisible dude of the same name...its a real trip.
@@markstewart4501 cool word salad. God Bless! 🙏
@@brano2times Word Salad? Bless your heart.
Thanks again for making this wonderful series! What a wonderful resource for anyone who wants to study this issue. It really is the best chart in existence on this topic.
Hey “Ready FOR Harvest” 😂 Seriously thanks for your videos, I am an atheist but I love learning about Christianity from your channel thanks Joshua
I remember you did a video on various flaws in denomination charts sometime ago. May I ask what improvements you see in Matt's chart?
I believe a good chart is a hieroglyph. Worth a 1000 pictures.
@@caseycrowe3805 I was an atheist but all this religious content... Lots of good theology once you get past the mechanic mid husband chemist pterodactyl hunters and the Hovinds.
I still like logicked videos mostly.
I love the hive mind bringing ppl together.
This was very antichrist propaganda
I'd say this is, without hesitation, some of the best educational lecturing I've ever seen in my life. It's not only ridiculously good CZcams content, it's just great material, unbelievably well presented. You explain these disparately-connected, sometimes-murky historical timelines in such a way that makes everything feel easy-breezy and digestible, while still maintaining nuance and breadth. You're infinitely clear and concise, not ever over explaining, gracefully walking us through complex histories without once tangling the web or losing the thread. Your steady tone is neither light nor heavy, and you somehow simplify without condescending. I'm in awe of your abilities. Thank you for this. (Not to mention the fucking _wildly_ beautiful chart, holy shit. Not florid, not cloying, not boring...just beautiful and instantly readable like the MTA Subway map. A triumph!)
Amazing that you correct the mistakes that you have made in previous parts. You actually listen, admit, and change your mistakes. Unlike most on CZcams.
If only there was quality control on CZcams, scholars could have more influence setting higher standards for intellectual honesty and accuracy.
Ho hum
Uh... Ok
@@ems4884 If that were the case most religious channels would have to change what they say too because they all believe they are right, and that is not intellectually honest or accurate. You actually want a, "Rules for thee, and not for me," scenario.
I can't believe this lasted only 3 short hours, I could have listened to you ALL day and wanted more. Excellent work, excellent! 👏👏👏👏👏
Can you do something like this on Zoroastrianism? Also, a "Who wrote the Avestas" would be extremely enlightening.
Are there many branches in Zoroastrianism?
@@milobem4458 Oh yeah, humans are involved so they have divisions.
There was/is Zoroastrian, Zurvanism, possibly Zandīks [extinct, and may have been another religion hiding as Zoroastrian], Mazdakism and split off Khurammites , Bihafaridhiyya, Muqanna, and others.
@@tommy-er6hhwow, I wonder how Judaism would differ if it didn't had Influences from zoroastrism.
@@blazer9547 Most of Jewish torah/laws were already done before the Babylon captivity, although most of the commentary was later. The Zoroastrian Persians came afterward.
586-597 BC Pagan Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon conquers Jerusalem and Judah as prophesied.
522--330 BC Persian Achaemenid Empire becomes officially Zoroastrian religion instead of the fire worshipers magi before.
536 BC Zoroastrian Persian king Darius allows Hebrews/Jews to return & rebuild Hebrew temple in Jerusalem.
475 BC Zoroastrian Persian Haman, (he was a descendant of Agag, the king of the Amalekites who Isrealite Saul did not kill) tries to exterminate all Jews, memorialized in holiday Purim/book of Esther, he fails.
I'm not sure it is at all possible to do "Who wrote the Avestas" considering what we know. We can't place Zoroaster, if he did live, to a single *century,* and a good chunk of the Avestas has been lost. I think. Not entirely sure what the landscape in that particular academic field looks like.
MATT BAKER, YOU ARE A LEGEND. This is such a wonderful gift to us all. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
This is overwhelming - hard for me to find words! I was raised in an SDA family in Germany and had contacts to many groups of christians including LDS (mormons), JW, pentecostals, (buddhists), world wide church of god (Armstrong) etc. You really spent lots of time with these denominations and did a really great job! I really appreciate your work!
Sounds cool. But I'm super confused about how you put Buddhists in the list alongside Pentecostal unless I misunderstood
Buddhism is not a group of Christians. Simply, Buddhism is the only religion that does not believe God as a creator.
2:44:36 He throws so much shade when he says L. Ron Hubbard made the whole thing up from scratch 😂 I love it
@GrowingUpInScientology
Gotta say, I chuckled.
Nah ... I laughed out loud!
Religious studies scholars pretty much never throw shade so his very slight snark aimed at Hubbard is quite something!
It really is extremely difficult to take Hubbard seriously.
and i like where he said that christian science actually has very little to do with science
Joseph Smith should have also carried the same statement. Both creators can successfully control minds and tax-free millions. Probably make someone disappear too
2:07:38 I don’t get why people continue to try to guess when Jesus will come back. It’s been tried so many times. And the Bible states in Matthew 24: 36-44 that no human shall know when he will return.
As a Christian I love how you take a neutral look at the faiths and present the facts, we need more people that are willing to speak with respect and present the historical facts of religious faiths.
A correction: Jehovah’s Witnesses do not claim that the correct Hebrew pronunciation of the Divine Name is “Jehovah”. The pronunciation of the divine name will vary from language to language. In English, the most common pronunciation has been “Jehovah”.
I really wish more Christians knew more about the history of their religion, Judaism, and the Israelite religion. Thank you for making this information accessible to the general public.
It's told in the old testament and then the new testament.
He said the history of the religion. That's not described in any of the biblical texts for the extremely obvious reason that they were all written before 250AD. @@Mark-sq1hj
@@ems4884 I'm talking about the history also. I wish he knew more about the history of whatever his religion is and quit paying so much attention to someone else's religion unless he's considering becoming a part of it.
@@Mark-sq1hj why? Many religions have interesting histories and no the Bible has no mentioning of anything being talked about here old or new in fact much of the old testament stories ie moses or Noah are questioned by scholars and archaeologically to have happened as described or to be exaggerated stories
I could see a college professor basing an entire course on exploring this series and chart.
Um... no. This is good, but professors of religion could give this speech with no prep and already know all of it. I'm a professor of something else entirely and could do the same. It's nice for CZcams, but this isn't groundbreaking stuff.
@@jfo1740no I think she meant to pause on each denomination and present a more thorough explanation
@@jfo1740I think you misunderstood the Intent of the OP.
In any event, this CZcamsr is a religious studies PhD and this is part of his public education work. Obviously a religious studies 101 survey would bulk this out quite a bit.
But as an OUTLINE for a historical survey of Christianity, sure. I think that's what the first commenter meant.
I certainly would refer my undergraduate art history students to this if they asked me for a condensed outline of Christian sects. Sometimes they don't want a citation to a full-length text.
amazing video. from someone who grew up pentecostal and looked into many many denominations before eventually coming home to the Catholic Church, I appreciate how absolutely thorough and academic this is.
just incredible work!
I grew up in protestant central in the ozarks and somehow the Catholic Church has been calling me ever stronger. My greatest criticism of the god delusion would be Dawkins rushes past his problems with Aquinas quickly and I noticed it even in my most convinced atheism.
You would love Redeemed Zoomer's "Every Christian Denomination in 15 minutes" For a prot he has some theological talent.
This is deceptive in some ways against Catholic church.. The leadership and why the called Catholic
Wow and I'm the opposite...I left catholic church for pentecostal church
The Catholic Church worships humans and idols
@@Woodstock53 may you find your way home :)
I’ve been looking for this explanation for my entire life. While it only begins to scratch the surface of the subject, it provides a clear structure to very complex lineages.
I appreciate your continuous tweaking throughout after audience feedback! It shows your commitment to delivering the most accurate information possible.
Omg Matt, I am a Jewish student teacher about to give my first ever lesson plan which is about the origins of Christianity and then a follow up of the early church. I know Christian history somewhat well from your videos and my courses, but the timing here is so helpful! Thank you!
Wait, you’re allowed to use omg??
@@MilaneseMoon Might want to see the UsefulCharts video on the history of Judaism, as there are quite a few different opinions on how Jewish law is to be interpreted and followed. I'm not Jewish so you're best checking his video. :-)
Cool, is this going to be in a secular school setting or yeshiva?
You just took the Lord’s name in vain.
😄@@MilaneseMoon
Thanks for the charts and lesson Matt! You’re truly amazing. I wish the best for you and your family
Brilliant! I've been looking for something like this for years. Thank you for putting this together!
Thank you so very much for combining all of the separate videos!
This is such an amazing tool for understanding. Thank you! I really admire your patience and attention to detail here
I hadn’t really paid attention to your videos after the second one as I was disappointed that the Russian Old Believers hadn’t been even mentioned. I didn’t know your charts were so dynamic and responsive to suggestions from CZcams viewers. The community I live in has a large Russian Old Believer population as well as several other Christian denominations. Religion history is really interesting to me. Thank you for all your work on this!
Speaking of Nestorianism, this branch of Christianity had a great influence on the Mongols and some of them were Nestorians, because Nestorian missionaries wandered through Central Asia. For this reason, when they appeared in the Middle East in the 13th century, there was a short-lived alliance between them and the crusaders.
I'm convert to Roman Catholicsm from Islam.
I am cerious what made you convert? ( not attacking you just cerious )
Welcome home. Converts make better Catholics who make Catholicism better
Liar!

I've been praying for this work! Amazing scholarship, crazy timing for me!
Matt, this is one of my favorite charts you've done. I especially like how in your original presentation you kept modifying the chart based on viewer feedback. It shows that you are responsive. Funny how everybody wants to pin their tail on your donkey - sometimes you found their tail to be relevant. This chart can be used as a roadmap to study how a idea, like a meme (e.g. method of baptism, Sabbatarianism, etc.) can move from one group to another. Memes don't need to flow through an org chart, but can appear spontaneously in one group and then jump (like being transported) across time and space to another apparently unrelated group. You've done a tremendous job here. Tx.
Yeah he's been wrong before hopefully he gets humbled by it and repents of his sins in Jesus name i pray for him and for all those who view his work
@@johnrevelation37what does this even mean...
When did this Meme word come into common use? Never saw it in academia, only on the internet in recent decades. It's a ridiculous word without precision.
@@johnrevelation37The level of arrogance in your comment is off the charts. Great job setting the bar to a new level 👍
@@BlueBeeMCMLXIIt’s been used in parlance by some academics, but only since the term was introduced in “The Selfish Gene” by Richard Dawkins (which was published in the late 1970s if I’m remembering correctly). Some researchers (particularly in psychology I believe) have found it helpful in explaining societal and cultural evolution. There is more work by some researchers to focus on creating more empirical frameworks in memetics, to increase their usability in science studies.
It’s really great how you update retroactively.
I’m at 2hrs and 14min your academic approach is convincing me more and more to convert to Catholicism ! TY for doing this BTW! Very enlightening to me
We have problems but it’s the True Church.
@@theomegaman218Heh...
I think Matt might be a little surprised to hear that his attempt to present a very neutral account led to any conversions.
@@theomegaman218I really don't care either way, but why do Catholics do this kind of thing? Do you not see the arrogance in this kind of claim?
@@ems4884I’m Catholic and I don’t do this. Yes Catholicism is a true Church but it’s not The One True Church if you catch what I’m saying. By saying Catholicism is The One True Church you’re forgetting the fact that Judaism was around before Catholicism. The Catholic Church would not be be here if it weren’t for the Jewish people. I’m thankful to them for that. But I refuse to say it’s the One True Church.
I love charts like this that give us an overview of a topic. It leaves people the opportunity to investigate particular aspects without losing the big picture.
i love your chart series.. can wait to get your poster
Thank you for making this chart and you tube video. your research and collating this into one chart and the changes based off comments made have been so helpful for understanding the many churches existing today 👍
This is by far the longest video I have ever watched on CZcams! Fascinating! What would make this chart rock for me would be if at every schism there was a box leading to each side with a bullet point explaining the disagreement or reason for the break. I've learned so much from the video but am going to really struggle to remember without referring back regularly. Thanks for doing this!
I had a 6-hour history of Eve Online (Down the Rabbit Hole) on and had to take a break from it and ended up here 😆
The schisms are interesting. But to understand them properly actually requires quite a bit of historical context. There's often a superficial reason which functions as the official reason for the break, but the real story is more complicated and not emphasized by priests / pastors.
I'm an athiest/agnostic (not exactly sure, though leaning more spirtually athiest) but I love learning about different cultures and religions especially to see how different people see our wonderful world. Your videos help so much in that quest of mine! Much love to all faiths, beliefs, and cultures in this world we share! 💖🫶
As an agnostic, I find religion fascinating. Which one is correct?
@nancymeehan3874 Christianity. It requires only acceptance of Grace. Other Religions have numerous practices which don't bring Grace. Humans are incapable of getting Grace by their own merits.
@@nancymeehan3874 There must be true in what's fascinating , that connection is beyond understanding .After all science is short of answers , evolution is history ,origin of life is not known .
These long form breakdowns are incredible. Keep it up
This is amazing work. I learned so much, Thank you. Nice Job!
Thank you for representing the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in a welcoming and respectful light. I appreciate your efforts researching this video, and I love your Book of Mormon chart video as well. May God bless you and your family.

Fun Quaker story, the Quaker Oats company once actually sued a small family farm in California called Quaker Oaks, which was actually owned by a Quaker. Just in case you needed more reasons to be upset with that company.
I watched this entire video in one morning. Excellent work UsefulCharts!
Beautifully done. An excellent geneology of religion! A lot of work and though went into this chart.
Interesting how many important words like denomination, species, country, or continent tend to be really hard to specifically define in practice, yet we all have a relatively good understanding of them. Great video anyway!
This was seriously one of the best videos I’ve ever seen! I got the chart and I’m going to rewatch it when I get the package so I can take better notes!
At last! Thank you for explaining a complex topic in such an easy-to-follow way.
Thank you so much, this is so informative, I followed and downloaded all the episodes.
Can you please, in another session, cover the different councils and what they discussed. Thanks again!
I really love that your doing this with your channel. This is one of the best ongoing series in this topic. I used to feel like I was the only “believer” who was interested in this history from an academic secular standpoint. This is awesome, keep up the great work.
Hello
@@YajunYuanSDA How are you doing my friend?
Wow! This was AMAZING. I learned so much, too. Thank you for doing this. I've watched some of your other videos too.
Excellent! Thank you for your hard work. I watch this in one setting. I plan on buying this poster as well as several others, again thank you. I not only appreciate the intelligence but l found it very motivating.
YES I’ve been waiting for months for this thank you Useful Charts
A compendium of amazing quantity and quality of scholarship. Congratulations and thanks.
Parts of it remind me of Jonathon Swift's story about a country who went to civil war between one party insisting that boiled eggs should be cracked open from the round end, against the other party contending they must be cracked open from the pointy end.
Thank you very much! Wow there is a lot to take in!
Man that was a big video, thanks for you research and effort
This is probably the best video you've done and you have done so many great ones. I initially found you when looking up videos about Armstrongism to send to a friend after I told them I was in a cult (Intercontinental Church of God, founded by Garner Ted Armstrong, son of Herbert W. Armstrong). Since watching your Armstrongism video, I've been hooked on your content. Keep up the good work! I'd love to see a chart just on the Armstrong breakaway groups
Great work as always, thank you very much. 🧡
Someone should make a chart about the history of charts made by Matt 📊
Yeah
Thank you Mark, i received my 4 charts they are awesome thank you.
This video was amazing and I applaud your efforts in studying and researching. It's amazing!
The fact that this triumph of a chart and video was done so perfectly by. Jewish person, is remarkable.
10/10. Excellent. Greetings from Greece 🇬🇷
Really shows how fake of a country Macedonia is too..
Nice chart. It would be neat to see another chart with specific Christian beliefs with each denomination checkmarked as holding or denying each specific belief. No doubt many denominations differ in one or two beliefs, some rather petty, but it would be interesting to see how each one adheres or varies displayed on a single chart.
This is what I'd be particularly interested in.
And, between my upbringing and this video, I now understand that for most only care about specific tenets regardless of what is officially accepted. IOW, the ones they care about being followed is what, in their minds, makes people either a Christian or not a Christian regardless of the importance (or existence) of those things in scripture.
I'm glad I happened upon this. I appreciate your work. I used to own a book with a fold out chart which shows what each major denomination believes. At a glance I could see if they were Nicean, how people become members, baptism by immersion etc, beliefs on tithing vs donations, what they believe after death etc. I would love to see a program done like this. I@@RubelliteFae
I found myself mildly offended by the naturalistic view of the origin of Christianity. But I understand that is the explanation those who don't believe the biblical history, or find it more symbolic than literal.
I appreciate this full dive into the history of what is currently recognized as Christianity.
Holee sheet, I can't believe I actually sat down to watch through this for 3 hours straight!
Jokes aside, this video has given me an immense insight into Christianity that no father, pastor or bishop has been able to before.
Excited about your interest in Zoroastrianism! A deep dive into 'Who wrote the Avestas' would be enlightening. Your series is a fantastic resource, and I share the hope that it never ends. Keep up the great work!
absolutely stunning and connects the dots of what I've been self studying for 25 years Thank YOU for all your hard work !
I grew up in the Salvation Army. Fascinating history in and of itself. I just also found it funny that you used my Parents good friend as the photo.
I grew up as Church of God Anderson and honestly had no idea why they was a separation between Anderson and Cleveland. This was FASCINATING. Thank you for putting this together.
3 hours on a Friday night and I watch the whole thing! Love your videos!
Thanks for illuminating the tapestry of some of our choices in assembling together to work in the arts of making the world a better place by cultivating and celebrating reverence for the source of all life and all being.

As a Baptist, yeah. We tend to think of Lutheran, Anglican and other big organized churches as LightCatholics. (It's like Lightbeer. Only with churches.)
Well, that's one of the best way to break it down...just a simple historical description of what it was and it is....By this virtue alone, it is a masterpiece....
The most useful chart on this entire channel.
Thank you Useful Charts. May your tribe increase 🙏🏼
Wow! I really appreciate your work, sir! So extensive and informative. I all the more have a deeper understanding and appreciation about the roots of our faith. :)
There are exceptions to the “one cathedral per diocese” rule! I grew up in the diocese of Houma-Thibodaux under the Archdiocese of New Orleans. There we had Co-Cathedrals. St. Francis in Houma and St. Joseph in Thibodaux
Man as someone who grew up Catholic bug doesn’t really practice anymore, these religion videos are just so interesting from a historical and archaeological perspective lmao
You ever seen any of those CZcams channels like Catholic talk show, Pints with Aquinas, Catholic answers etc?
I am really enjoying this video series and blow away by the vast amount of work that went into making it. As someone that grew up in the Assemblies of God and now Foursquare for the last 37 years, I have a couple of comments/corrections to mention. When an individual accepts Christ as their Savior and repents of their sins, they become “Born Again”. The Baptism in or of the Holy Spirit may or may not included speaking in tongues. There are several “gifts” of the Spirit ie tongues, interpretation, prophecy, etc. Also, I did not hear or see anything regarding the Philadelphia Church and Vineyard. Thanks for all your efforts. AMAZING!!!
Excellent work and a quite informative video that shows things from an unbiased view allowing individuals to form their own opinions.
I really love this chart. Just a thought...even though nobody loves giving a shoutout to hate groups, I think it's important to show the relationship between fringe groups and where they came from. Those groups weren't created in a vacuum. They were originally good people that started to fall for the message of a rouge teacher. I know you removed the Westboro Baptist Church because they are more of a hate group but they didn't start there. It shows how even the best people can go astray when they are indoctrinated by a charismatic person.
I think he should do a chart of all the different “hate groups” from all walks of life/ideologies.
He could throw the S.C.U.M. manifesto in there, along with Wahadism….and the ‘Black Hebrew Isrealites’
Could
Fantastic! It took me a few breaks to finish it, but I did it.😊❤
I watched all the way to the end on Thanksgiving Day. I know it was much work for you but I want you to know that I appreciate it immensely. Thank you.
Excellent presentation. Very clearly articulated as well as with the design.
Maybe you can expand this chart into a full Abrahamic religions and their denominations family tree chart which includes the different sects of Judaism and Islam (and religions that branched out of both of them) that you tacked in previous videos. Technically, as the chart shows, you can group Judaism, Christianity, and Islam (along with other small traditions like the Samaritans, Mandaeans, Rastafari, Druze, Yazidis, Babis, Azalis, Baha'is, etc) into a single family of religions known as the Abrahamic religions because they all claim Abraham as their "common ancestor" (although Mandaeism does not consider Abraham, Moses, and Jesus as among their prophets, I think it still is considered an Abrahamic religion since it recognizes many figures also found in other Abrahamic traditions and it is considered to have originated from an early Christian Gnostic sect).
Sikhism as well.
The Mandaeans are considered Gnostic and their status among Abrahamic religions is questionable. Although some scholars hold that Gnosticism has Jewish and Christian origin, and thus are Abrahamic, others claim an origin in either Zoroastrianism or Buddhism . So maybe, or maybe not. The Yazidis are classed as being one of the Iranian religions which are distinct from the Abrahamic religions. Apart from the Abrahamic religions the other major religious groupings are the Iranian religions, the Indian religions and the East Asian religions.
@@LawrenceEsq Gnostic was a bit of an umbrella term used by the orthodoxy against several early heretical faiths. They weren't like others we modernly call Gnostic; they were more concerned with baptism and claim older roots.
As for Zoroastrianism, I don't know that we'd have any of the Abrahamic faiths (certainly not as we know them today) without Zoroastrian influence, particularly during Hebrew captivity in Babylon.
Baha'i accepts the prophets of several religions including most of the Abrahamic prophets. So, to callit strictly Iranian or Indian is to misunderstand their faith.
Also Rastafari doesn't fit into any of the categories you named. IDK about the others.
If every Christian in the world buys a poster, please don’t stop making this kinda of content. Your work is a true testament.
love your clear explanations and diagrams
I really, really enjoyed this one. So much can be said for specification. This is an extremely well done explanation. Bravo.
I don’t want to sound repetitive here, but I’m a huge fan of this channel. Amazing work Mr. Baker!
Great video, very informative, I would love to have this chart to remember this forest of denominations. Nevertheless, it seems to me that at the end it was something more like "the origins of American denominations".
Matt,Amazing presentation!! Well done you faithful believer!!!❤
Exquisite presentation. Thank you soooo very much for the presentation. I look forward to viewing .... learning from .... other presentations. Again, thank you. Shalom.
I grew up in the Christian Science Church, my Grandmother's church. They did not believe in doctors. So, when I was 10, I started attending a United Methodist Church. After many many years, when the UMC started practicing the sanctity of same sex marriage, I stopped attending the UMC.
Back when I was 10, my Mother decided I should be able to decide myself what church I wanted to attend. I believe she wanted to change churches as well. I also, looking back, being a wild child, I was always hurting myself, and we were always ending up at an emergency room or at a doctors office.
She took me to a United Methodist Church a couple of times, so becoming a Methodist was just a an evolution in my life. Also, they had a really cool Boy Scout troop. I was lucky to have a really cool mom.
You and your mom must have been so furious to see gay people being accepted and respected as human beings capable of love.
There's no hate like Christian love, huh.
@@ems4884 like the hate you're demonstrating. It's not about what we want but what God wants. I fail every day.
Either you honor God or you make a false god in your own image. Can't have it both ways.
I've read tons of scholarly books on the history of Christianity and yet this video vastly improved my understanding.
As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I greatly appreciate your honestly and accuracy in your portrayal of us! It’s hard to find people outside of my religion who can accurately tell me what it is we believe and who we are. Thank you!
Brilliant! Absolutely BRILLIANT! I have a headache, but Brilliant!
Another group you could put on here as one of those black and white symbols that represent groups that could be considered divergent from Christianity are the pilgrims of Arès.
It’s a small religion that originated in France. A former orthodox priest who was living in the French village of Arès claims he talked to Jesus and wrote a book containing all of the teachings he says Jesus told him.
Finally getting a grasp on who's who, this helps a lot for further reading. Thank you!
This is a brilliant presentation. Thank you.
Well done! Keep up this great work
Wow this is really good. I just noticed that it's three hours long. I learned so much in the first 10 minutes. There's no way I'm going to not finish this but it might not be today.
I'm back to try and finish this now.
