How many PROTs on FR disclose their particular denomination? I’ve seen many asked that question who refuse to answer.

Refuse?

You've not asked, but I attend a Wesleyan congregation.

I consider the question irrelevant. #1 I can/have attend different church's with ease. #2 My identity is with Christ NOT a denomination with which we may not agree with everything.#3 I've attended home church's with no particular denomination. #4 The denomination doesn't save you, Jesus does. #5 I don't have to attend any church because me and my wife are a church (where two or more are gathered together in My name . . ).

Denominations???

Dude, you’re missing the big picture.

Christianity is about salvation and eternal life through His sacrifice and through no merit of our own.

Lift your eyes higher to Him. Throw away your heads and hexagrams and idols.

You can have eternal life in Him today.

Why focus on the l seer things on earth???

The NT only remotely mentions one denomination....John the Baptist!

The reason is in denomination where there’s only maybe one or two churches for that denomination in a city or area, then by giving out the name of the church, it would make it WAY too easy for someone to ID a person.

In WNY and CNY there are Catholic churches about on every other street corner, so to say *Catholic* does not give enough information to track someone down.

To say something like Nazarene, or Assemblies of God, cuts that to a fraction of the population and all someone would have to do is find out a first name and go to the church and they could easily find them.

And I am not going to risk some kook tracking me down through the internet cause they didn’t like something I said and wants to make my life hell for it.

Besides, faith in Christ is the common denominator for Christians, not the denomination you attend for worship on Sundays.

I don’t know the church affiliations of any of those I ping out but I still consider them brothers and sisters in Christ based on their personal commitment to Him and having accepted Him for salvation by faith.
