Word of the Day: Denomination

A group of Christians that share a particular belief, or beliefs, different from other Christians, such as Catholics, Lutherans, or Baptists. For example, Baptists believe baptism requires full immersion in water, whereas Catholics believe pouring water over the head is sufficient.

Most Christian denominations share belief that Jesus is the son of God, who died to pay the penalty for mankind's sins, and was resurrected three days later.

Some Christians consider themselves "non-denominational" and do not believe in separating from other Christians with different interpretations of what scripture means.
