My boyfriend and I started dating four years ago, and at that time we both went to the same kind of church (pentacostal/ a of g) and had similar faith. Since then, however, he left for the navy, decided he was catholic, and developed a somewhat apathetic opinion toward spirituality. He wants to marry me. I love him and want to marry him too, but I'm afraid of the problems our differences in beleifs will cause in our home. anyone have some advice?

I don't really know, but I'd have a discussion with him about it. Tell him it's bothering you, and ask him why he decided to become Catholic and find similarties and differences between the two. If there are more similarites than differences, I think you'll be able to work it out.

Catholicism and Protestantism do not mix together at all. If you are Pentecostal and if he is Catholic, the best to do is... Try to get him back to Protestantism. His Catholicism could become a stumbling rock if you are going to have a relationship with him (especially in marriage). I hate the thought of dividing the body of Christ, however, its best to avoid future conflict and troubles.

My dad started doing these big Arise events last year,
Where he brought all the denominations in just to worship God...
So what if you have a few different beliefs?
You both believe in the one big thing- That God is God,
And that Jesus is his son,
And that he died for your sins.
If you guys are supposed to be together,
Things'll work out.
Pray about it, is my advice.

My youth group has wednesday night group, and sometimes we have this thing called "Talk Soup" where the students ask questions, and we all work together answering the questions. the last time we had this someone asked about the diff denominations and our youth pastor got passionate about how everyone uses their denomination as a title, saying "i am a baptist" or "i am methodist", but in the end it dosent really matter, we all belive in the same God, and we all belive that Christ died for our sins on the cross... we are all the body of Christ, we should not let little things get in our way of working together to bring to world to a relationship with Him

I would go to premarital counseling and pray about it. I don't believe in destiny and such, but if you really want to be together and you pray about it and have faith in God, He will help you be together. 3nodding

When it's all said and done, Christianity is Christianity. We all blieve in Jesus, that he died on the cross, etc. I don't see the problem.
