What makes your denomination so special?
Baptists.
Catholics.
LDS.
Presbyterians.
And all the other christian sects.
Why do you follow your specific denomination? If it is all based on the bible, why are there divisions within the religion?
And if you don't mind, can you give me a little blurb about what sets your denomination apart from the others. Hell, even if you aren't one, can you educate us a little if you know something we may not. For instance, I have no idea why baptists think they are special.
And does that mean the Adventists are going to hell?

The LDS church is a living church, with modern prophets who receive revelation from God. It has the gifts of the spirit, and the authority of the Holy Priesthood.
All of the other churches are based on tradition, and the writings of prophets who have been dead for over two thousand years. The Protestants believe the Catholic church to be corrupt. The Mormons (LDS) agree, and believe the Protestants to be the Catholic church, version 2. Only through revelation from God can the original church and the principles of the gospel be restored in their purity.

I'm LDS.
It's special because it's the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, and we have the restored priesthood. We also have a living prophet and apostles. There isn't any divisions within our church. There is one church and every lds church around the world preaches the same thing.

I do not believe any denomination is perfect currently I go to a Congregational church but its for the pastor not the denomination. we all have to face God individually not as a church.
it is not which church we attend that matters but our relationship with Jesus.

And Jesus said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.
"I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it.
Matthew 16:17-19
Now I exhort you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be made complete in the same mind and in the same judgment.
For I have been informed concerning you, my brethren, by Chloe's people, that there are quarrels among you.
Now I mean this, that each one of you is saying, "I am of Paul," and "I of Apollos," and "I of Cephas," and "I of Christ."
Has Christ been divided? Paul was not crucified for you, was he? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
1 Corinthians 1:10-13
Protestants should not have divided Christ's church.

well my prticular denomination is distinctively known for adhereing to Scripture, God's Word and Law = Truth, we have no false doctrine, nor man made tradition or rituals, we obey and please God, not "man"...here are divisions in the denominations due to when the Protestants fled the RCC centuries ago, they inadvertently took with them many of the pagan doctrines that the catholics still adhere to today i.e. the immortal soul doctrine, the sun day new world Sabbath and non Biblical teachings in place of Biblical Truths. that is why this great whore of Babylon has made the entire nations (whole world) drunk in her fornication. it is time to Sober up, Rev. 18:4 Jesus speaking: Come out of "her" My people, that you Not be partakers of her sins and that you not recieve of her plagues....will you? God Bless
