1. How did the new Christian Sects and Movements emerge in the 19th and 20th centuries/ what were
the factors involved for its proliferations?
-Characteristic of Christianity in the 19th century were Evangelical revivals in some largely Protestant
countries and later the effects of modern scientific theories such as Darwinism on the churches;[citation
needed] modernist theology was one consequence of this. In Europe, the Roman Catholic Church suffered a
schism after the First Vatican Council, leading to the founding of Old Catholic churches. In Europe there
was a general move away from religious observance and belief in Christian teachings and a move towards
secularism. The "secularization of society", attributed to the Age of Enlightenment and its following years,
is largely responsible for the spread of secularism.
2. How are they similar and different from each other?
Pentecostal Church- The term Pentecostal is derived from Pentecost, the Greek name for the Jewish Feast
of Weeks. For Christians, this event commemorates the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the followers of
Jesus Christ, as described in the second chapter of the Book of Acts.
Seventh Day Adventist Church- is a Protestant Christian denomination distinguished by its observance of
Saturday, the original seventh day of the Judeo-Christian week, as the Sabbath, and by its emphasis on the
imminent second coming of Jesus Christ.
Baptist Church-Baptists are Christians who comprise a group of denominations and churches that
subscribe to a doctrine that baptism should be performed only for professing believers, and that it must be
done by complete immersion.
Methodist Church-Methodist Church (UMC) is a Methodist Christian denomination that is both mainline
Protestant and Evangelical. Founded in 1968 by the union of the Methodist Church and the Evangelical
United Brethren Church, the UMC traces its roots back to the revival movement of John and Charles
Wesley within the Church of England
Jehovahs Witnesses- millenarian restorationist Christian denomination with nontrinitarian beliefs distinct
from mainstream Christianity.
Mormons or Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints-is a Christian restorationist church that
considers itself to be a restoration of the church founded by Jesus Christ.

4. In the midst of differences, in what specific areas could ecumenism be attained?
-For Catholics and Orthodox on the other hand, the true unity of Christendom is treated in accordance with
their more sacramental understanding of the Body of Christ; this ecclesiological matter for them is closely
linked to key theological issues (e.g. regarding the Eucharist and the historical Episcopate), and requires full
dogmatic assent to the pastoral authority of the Church for full communion to be considered viable and
valid.
5. What is Ecumenism? How important is ecumenism in the Church?
-Ecumenism mainly refers to initiatives aimed at greater Christian unity or cooperation. These initiatives are
often referred to as interdenominational. It is used predominantly by and with reference to Christian
denominations and Christian Churches separated by doctrine, history, and practice.
